With leagues around Europe beginning to kick-off, the need to finish adding the final touches to squads ahead of August 31’s transfer deadline is becoming ever more pressing.

Sport360 rounds-up the biggest latest transfer stories from around the world.

 

Gustavo Gomez, Lanus to AC Milan, €7 million (Done Deal)

The Paraguay centre-back yesterday became the Rossoneri’s third summer signing after a deal was agreed with the Argentine champions from the first half 2016.

At just 23-years old, there’s plenty of scope for development in the future.

 

Fernando Llorente, Sevilla to Swansea, €5 million (Done Deal)

The giant Spain striker’s frustrating spell at Sevilla is close to an end after he was booked in for a medical with the Swans.

His arrival will boost an already thin area of the squad which has been further weakened by the departures of Bafetimbi Gomis and Alberto Paloschi.

 

Mauro Icardi, Inter to Arsenal, €59 million (Reported)

Widespread reports in Italy state that the Argentine striker’s wife and agent Wanda Nara are set to meet with the Gunners in the coming days to discuss a club-record move.

Arsenal have struggled thus far in the summer to bring in competition to Olivier Giroud.

 

Martin Odegaard, Real Madrid to Hamburg, loan (Reported)

The boy wonder could be given a chance to rediscover his spark in the Bundesliga, reports AS.

The 17-year-old playmaker was recruited to huge fanfare last year, but has featured just once for Los Blancos. Hamburg appear the most-likely route to regular games.

 

Islam Slimani, Sporting to Everton, €27.3 million (Reported)

The Toffees are in desperate need of reinforcements up top, even if they keep hold of Romelu Lukaku.

This situation has seen them join Southampton in the hunt for the prolific Algeria star. He scored 31 times in 44 games last term.
