HERE ARE THE good, the bad, and the unlikely football moves being talked about today…
With Liverpool refusing to sell Phillippe Coutinho, Barcelona are now being linked with Chelsea star Willian. The Blues have already had to rebuff interest from Manchester United and Antonio Conte will be desperate to keep hold of the Brazilian after seeing several players leave this summer.

In France, L’Equipe report that Paris Saint-Germain are closing in on another enormous deal to take Kylian Mbappe from rivals Monaco. However, one of Lucas Moura, Julian Draxler or Javier Pastore will have have to go in the other direction.

After breaking their transfer record to add Colombian defender Davinson Sanchez to their ranks, Tottenham are believed to be nearing an agreement with PSG for full-back Serge Aurier. The Ivorian is available due to Dani Alves’ arrival from Juventus and he could join Spurs in the next 72 hours.
Jonny Evans expects to be a Manchester City player by next week’s deadline. The West Brom and Northern Ireland defender will leave the Baggies for around £30 million after an initial bid of £18m was rejected.

Benfica’s Peruvian international Andre Carrillo is having a medical at Watford today ahead of his loan move. The 26-year-old winger will spend the season with the Hornets, having worked with manager Marco Silva previously at Sporing Lisbon.
In other news, Stoke have held talks with Club Brugge over an £8.5m move for Belgian centre-half 
 Bjorn Engels.
Elsewhere, Robert Snodgrass looks set to leave West Ham just eight months after joining from Hull City. Championship side Aston Villa and Sunderland are both battling it out for his signature.
