Transfer news: Gittens to Chelsea, Eze to Tottenham Hotspur — Reports

The summer transfer window has already provided some huge deals (Florian Wirtz, Matheus Cunha and Liam Delap to name a few) and the reports just keep on coming. MORE — Full list of Premier League ins and outs this summer Below we take a look at some of the latest transfer reports involving Premier League clubs. Gittens to Chelsea back on? It appeared that the deal for Jamie Gittens to head to Chelsea from Borussia Dortmund was off and the English winger could be heading to Bayern Munich instead. But a report from The Athletic says that Chelsea are closing in on signing Gittens, 20, after a breakthrough in talks with Dortmund. Gittens would be the direct replacement for Jadon Sancho, who has gone back to parent club Manchester United, and the talented English winger is exactly the kind of player Enzo Maresca wants. He's direct, works hard up and down the flank and has the ability to cut inside and float around as one of the three attacking players in his system. Per the report, Gittens would sign a seven-year deal with Chelsea. Spurs set to move on to Eze? With the likes of Bryan Mbeumo and Antoine Semenyo linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, it appears Spurs may go in a different direction with their hunt for a new chief creative talent: Eberechi Eze. According to talkSPORT Spurs have now turned their attention to Eze. The England international has been a star for Crystal Palace over the last few years and was crucial in their FA Cup win as he's taken the Eagles to Europe. But Eze, 26, knows that big clubs will be circling for him this summer and this move would be a very good fit. The system new Spurs boss Thomas Frank plays would be ideal for Eze and he will get the best out of him, just as he has did with Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa at Brentford. If Eze is to leave Palace for one of the Premier League's big boys this summer then joining Frank at Spurs should be his top priority.

Man City are about to find out just how much they've changed

When Manchester City lost to Juventus in Turin in December last year, it was their seventh defeat in 10 games and the pain still wasn't over. They would lose their next two as well, and the wheels looked to be coming off spectacularly. Advertisement That eight-week run of one win and nine defeats in 13 games torpedoed City's chances of retaining their Premier League title and left them vulnerable in the Champions League. Failure to qualify in the top eight resulted in a play-off tie with Real Madrid. In the first 45 minutes at Juventus, there were signs of hope. With Jack Grealish playing centrally, City were pretty good and the better team. It felt like a difficult game was there for the taking.

They conceded two goals on transition and looked like a team that had the heart ripped out of them. The next weekend, they threw away a derby day lead in the final minutes against Manchester United at the Etihad in contriving to lose. Guardiola said he was "happy with the way we played" at Juventus, but his comments also exposed how far City had fallen in just a few weeks. He admitted he was questioning himself and that his team had "a lot of problems." Ilkay Gundogan also spoke after the game, saying City were "careless with duels" but that he knew what the issue was. "We know what's going wrong it's just finding the switch to turn things around because even though we are not getting results, it doesn't feel like we are far off," he said. Advertisement "As long as we don't find that click, it's going to be tough. The only thing right now we can do, every single player needs to question themselves, to do better, how the player can individually sacrifice more to contribute to the team so we can get collectively back on our way." City certainly improved as the season went on, recovering to finish third in the Premier League. However, their defeat to Crystal Palace at Wembley in the FA Cup final showed that their problems hadn't completely disappeared, and their stabilisation in the Premier League was built on a more solid and defensive set-up. Guardiola now hopes that is behind them. While FIFA considers the Club World Cup an extension of last season, City are labelling it the start of a new one. Erling Haaland was credited with scoring his 32nd goal of the campaign against Al Ain, but as far as his club is concerned, it was the Norwegian's first of 2025/26. Guardiola told his players as much in a meeting at their Boca Raton base before the tournament started, and they have bought into it. It is an easy psychological device to try to wipe the slate clean after last term. Advertisement But at some point those memories could come flooding back and on Thursday night in Orlando, we will get to see just how far City have come since their low point in December. Another meeting with Juventus is an ideal staging post. City need to win the game to win Group G and avoid a likely meeting with Real Madrid in the last-16. Can they beat Juventus now, seven months on from a predictable defeat in Italy? Juve have looked good in this tournament and top the group by virtue of scoring nine goals to City's eight against Wydad AC and Al Ain. When they got on top in that Champions League meeting, City couldn't make Juventus pay and couldn't maintain control of the game. Their biggest weakness was also exposed. They were vulnerable to attacks through the middle and fast breaks, and even against Wydad AC and Al Ain, there have been hints of those issues in America. Those two teams were never going to have the quality to take advantage. Juventus will. This is City's biggest test of the group stage and the ideal chance to see how far they have come. Advertisement There will be changes in Guardiola's XI. Kyle Walker, Grealish and Kevin De Bruyne all started last winter, while Vitor Reis, Abdukodir Khusanov, Nico Gonzalez, Omar Marmoush, Marcus Bettinelli, Rayan Cherki, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Tijjani Reijnders have signed. You would expect a few of those eight new arrivals to start in Orlando. They will help give the Blues a fresh look against a familiar foe. If City can produce a very different performance as well, then the belief that this is a new season will start to grow.
