Villarreal agree personal terms with Chelsea star
La Liga outfit Villarreal have reached an agreement on the personal terms of a contract with a member of the defensive ranks at Premier League giants Chelsea. That's according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, who points towards Renato Veiga as the player in question. Defender Veiga is for his part expected to be on the move before the summer transfer window is out. This comes with the Portuguese, fresh off a solid loan stint with Juventus over the 2nd half of last season, not featuring in the plans of Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca. Held in high regard across the continent, a number of bids, in turn, are understood to have been tabled for Veiga of late. And as alluded to above, this week, one of the 22-year-old's many suitors have found an agreement with the player himself. As per a report from journalist Fabrizio Romano: 'Villarreal have agreed personal terms with Renato Veiga! Talks are well underway with Chelsea. The Spanish club is negotiating to agree on terms also with Chelsea. Current proposal: €24m plus add-ons, trying to get closer to €30m package.' Conor Laird – GSFN

Milan can close move for Bayer Leverkusen's Victor Boniface tomorrow
Serie A giants Milan can close their move for Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface as early as tomorrow. The Rossoneri made a move for the player earlier today, after having been linked with a host of strikers in the last two weeks. MilanNews report that work is ongoing at Milan to close a deal for Boniface quickly and talks have now advanced quickly with Bayer Leverkusen. Some steps are remaining to finalise the deal and Milan are very confident of signing the player and the move can close as early as tomorrow. Max Allegri's side will sign the Nigerian for an initial loan deal with an option to buy for €30 million. Manchester United's Rasmus Hojlund was initially believed to be a key target but Napoli are making progress for the Dane now, even if Milan had been coming close to signing him over the last week or so.

Chelsea confirm Lauren James out after injury from 2025 European Championship
Chelsea have confirmed that Lauren James picked up an injury during the 2025 European Championship. The London club said in a statement on their website that she will be sidelined while she rehabilitates, but did not indicate the length of time this will be for. James started the Euros final against Spain, which England won on penalties, but was taken off in the 40th minute. Head coach Sarina Wiegman had revealed she was working her way back to fitness before the game, after the Chelsea forward had been brought off at half-time during the semi-final and was seen with ice around her right ankle during the second half. Advertisement England won the tournament on penalties after Alessia Russo cancelled out 2024/25 PFA Women's Players' Player of the Year Mariona Caldentey's opener. James has been at Women's Super League champions Chelsea since the summer of 2021. She rejoined the London club from Manchester United, after spending time at Chelsea's academy as a youth player. Analysis When James went straight into the European Championships after a three-month injury layoff it ran the risk she would play a significant number of minutes over a condensed period of time for England and re-injure herself. The 23-year-old has also been susceptible to injury and struggled to maintain her fitness over the last few seasons. There is no denying her quality. On her day, she is unstoppable and a world class talent. She worked hard to make it back in time for the Euros and another setback will be extremely frustrating. Although the timeline is unspecified, she needs time to rebuild herself and Chelsea will have to be patient to make sure when she comes back, she comes back for good. Spot the pattern.
