Today's key events
PSG sign Ousmane Dembele from Barcelona
Paris Saint-Germain have completed the signing of attacker Ousmane Dembele from Barcelona.
The 26-year-old joins the French giants for a fee thought to be worth around €50m (£43.2m), putting pen to paper on a five-year deal that will keep him at the Parc des Princes until 2028.
The deal sees Dembele end his injury-affected time at Camp Nou, which saw him limited to 185 appearances across all competitions over a six-year spell.
The France international made 35 appearances last season, scoring eight goals to take his overall tally of goals for the Catalan outfit to 40 in all competitions.
Tottenham confirm Harry Kane move to Bayern Munich
Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that all-time record goalscorer Harry Kane has left the club to join German champions Bayern Munich.
The England captain departs for the Allianz Arena for a reported initial fee of £100m, which could rise to as much as £120m with performance-related add-ons, potentially making him the most expensive British player in history.
Kane has signed a four-year contract with Thomas Tuchel's side, and he will wear the number nine shirt for the Bundesliga holders ahead of his potential debut against RB Leipzig in Saturday's German Super Cup clash.
The striker had entered the final year of his contract at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and would have been eligible to leave on a free transfer in 2024, although chairman Daniel Levy initially refused to entertain bids in the hope that both parties would eventually come to an agreement over fresh terms.
Transfer rumours: Zaniolo to Villa, Veiga to Napoli, Akpom to Lens
Aston Villa have reportedly made an official move for Galatasaray attacker Nicolo Zaniolo.
The 24-year-old made the move to Galatasaray from Roma in February, and he has represented the Turkish outfit on 12 occasions, scoring five goals and registering one assist in the process.
There has been speculation surrounding the Italian's future this summer, though, and according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Villa have made an offer for his services.
Romano claims that the Premier League outfit are prepared to pay €3m (£2.6m) to loan the Italian for the 2023-24 campaign and will also cover his entire salary.
