Feyenoord confirm Quilindschy Hartman departure to Burnley
Feyenoord have confirmed that Quilindschy Hartman will be joining Burnley this summer. The 23-year-old released a statement via the Feyenoord website, having been with the club since he was nine years old. Hartman said 'Playing for Feyenoord, that's what I wanted as a little boy and I'm proud that I was able to wear this shirt so early, up to the first team and prizes'. Hartman then went on to talk about his desire to play in the Premier League and the chance to move to Burnley means he is making another dream come true.
The 23-year-old left-back, who has been capped at senior level by the Dutch national team, only made 12 appearances for the side last season, creating one assist. The fee agreed between the two sides is reported to have been around €12m. During his time with Feyenoord, Hartman won both the Eredivisie title and the KNVB cup. He leaves Feyenoord and Dutch football having made 83 appearances for the senior side, scoring two goals and providing 12 assists.

Hartman is the first of a number of players expected to leave, or to have already left, Feyenoord this summer. Antoni Milambo may well follow him to the Premier League by joining Brentford in the near future.

Stop EVERYTHING: Liverpool might have their next Mo Salah
Stop EVERYTHING: Liverpool might have their next Mo Salah Liverpool might have found their next Mo Salah. It's time to stop the transfer plans. Liverpool relied fairly heavily on Mo Salah last season. The Egyptian put in arguably the most incredible season of his career - and that's saying something, given his debut campaign saw him break the Premier League goal record for a 38-game season. Advertisement But that's really how good he was. Salah won both the Premier League Golden Boot and the Playmaker award in a sensational effort as Liverpool won the title. There is a bit of a 'problem' here, though. Salah turned 33 this month and has two years left on his Liverpool contract. It's difficult to believe there will be another one after that. The forward will not be at this level forever and Liverpool even need to entertain the idea that next season sees a drop-off. Now, we don't think that will happen but you've got to be open to it. Just in case. So here's the real problem: Liverpool don't have another Salah. No one really does, in truth, such is his incredibly high level. Advertisement We mean that there's no obvious successor, no backup, no replacement. Or is there? Harvey Elliott is thriving Harvey Elliott scored twice for England Under 21s on Thursday as they qualified for the UEFA U21 European Championship final. The Liverpool star was the best player on the pitch - and clearly the most decisive. Elliott proved without a doubt that he's a fantastic player and one worth incredible money. That latter part is particularly relevant as Liverpool are open to selling him. The 22-year-old barely started last season under Arne Slot. Injuries halted things in the opening few months but Elliott simply didn't get many chances after that - despite some brilliant moments. Advertisement Because the truth is, Elliott is a fantastic player. His performance against the Netherlands on Wednesday suggests he's what Liverpool are looking for, too, as Salah's successor. Elliott put up seven shots while playing from the right flank - Salah numbers. It's something the Egyptian has done 26 times in the Premier League since moving to Anfield and a real hallmark of his play. You don't need to be the greatest finisher in the world - the important thing is getting chances. That's the difficult part. Elliott has shown he can do that and it's a trait few players can match. But it also shows that there's real potential from him as a right-winger. Advertisement His 'best' position has typically been seen to be through the middle or in midfield under Jurgen Klopp. Is the secret here actually that Elliott does it all? Is he actually a brilliantly versatile player who can backup Salah like few can while also doing the same for Florian Wirtz? We think he might be, even if Liverpool don't necessarily agree. Regardless, we think a big-match display like Wednesday's - and the similarities to a Salah display - should stop any plans to sell for now.

Marseille make contact with Sikou Niakaté's entourage
According to a report from L'Équipe, Olympique de Marseille have made contact with SC Braga centre-back Sikou Niakaté's (25) entourage as they sound out a move for the Mali international. Despite the arrival of CJ Egan-Riley (22) on a free transfer from Burnley FC, Marseille's goals in this transfer window remain the same. The club are looking to add two experienced centre-backs to the side to help shore up a defence that was far too porous last season (conceding 47 in Ligue 1, the second worst record in the top half of the table). Advertisement This has led Les Phocéens to consider several targets, namely Facundo Medina and Nayef Aguerd, but also Benoît Badiashile, Oscar Mingueza, and Ramy Bensebaini. This list also includes Niakaté, who is under contract in Portugal until 2028, but the club would be willing to sell him this summer for between €8 million and €11 million, according to information from L'Équipe.
