Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news and rumours today, as West Ham face intense competition from Ajax and Real Betis as they launch a £15m bid for Eredivisie star, and Nick Pope opts to battle for his spot at St James' Park.
Former Man Utd and Arsenal defender Mikael Silvestre (Picture: Getty) Former Manchester United and Arsenal defender Mikael Silvestre believes only three teams are capable of winning the Premier League this season. Mikel Arteta is preparing for Arsenal’s title defence after the Gunners won the Premier League for the first time since 2004 last season. Arsenal were involved in another tense title race with Manchester City but ended up winning the Premier League by seven points. Man City will expect to challenge once again as the most dominant team in English football over the last decade, but it remains to be seen whether Enzo Maresca can successfully replace legendary manager Pep Guardiola.

Manchester United recovered from a poor first-half to the season to climb to third once Michael Carrick replaced Ruben Amorim in the Old Trafford hot-seat. Unai Emery’s Aston Villa secured fourth ahead of defending champions Liverpool, who finished 25 points behind Arsenal despite a stunning spending spree last summer and decided to sack Arne Slot in the summer. Silvestre knows what it takes to win the Premier League, having played a part in four Manchester United title triumphs under Sir Alex Ferguson. Arsenal won the Premier League last season (Picture: Getty) The former France international insists it will be ‘tough’ for Arsenal to retain their Premier League trophy but views Manchester City and Liverpool as the only two ‘realistic’ contenders outside of the reigning champions. Asked how he believes Arsenal will fare during their title defence, Silvestre told Grosvenor Sport: ‘It might seem like an easy job but you have to manage all the egos and keep everybody happy. ‘The players should understand that there is no rest. You must keep improving the team and the squad. New Manchester City boss Enzo Maresca (Picture: Getty) ‘Mikel Arteta has already shown that he can compete with the very best. Right now he’s the best manager in the Premier League based on last season. ‘The challenge now is to remain in that position as number one and that’s tough in the Premier League. ‘There will be so much competition from Manchester City and Liverpool this season although at the moment they are the only two teams that are ready to compete for the title, realistically.’ Manchester United impressed under Michael Carrick (Picture: Getty) Silvestre’s former Manchester United teammate Patrice Evra believes the Red Devils can continue to ‘rebuild’ and ‘compete’ for major honours once again. ‘Manchester United should never believe they are too far away,’ Evra told Stake. ‘This club was not built to accept second place. But belief without action is just talking. ‘You don’t become champions because you say the right sentence in an interview. You become champions because you work every day, build the right habits and perform when the pressure is highest. https://www.instagram.com/p/DZwv0I5DIzI/?hl=en&img_index=1 ‘If Arsenal can rebuild and compete again, of course United can. But now United have to prove it on the pitch. ‘When you are Manchester United, you don’t start the season dreaming about finishing fourth. Come on. That is not the standard Sir Alex Ferguson built into the club. ‘Of course you have to be realistic because the Premier League is tough. But the ambition has to be trophies. If top-four becomes the dream, then we have a problem. ‘Top-four can be a step. It can be a consequence of progress. But it should never be the limit of Manchester United. ‘I like what Michael Carrick is doing. He knows Manchester United because he lived it. He knows the standards, the history and what that dressing room should feel like. ‘Other clubs changing managers can help a little, maybe. But Manchester United should never build ambition around other clubs being unstable. United have to build

Alejandro Garnacho has joined Aston Villa on loan from Chelsea (Photo: Getty) Roma have reportedly added another Chelsea star to their transfer shortlist after failing to sign Alejandro Garnacho earlier this summer. The Serie A club had been the favourites to land Garnacho after Chelsea put the winger up for sale less than a year after his high-profile transfer from Manchester United. But in the end it was Aston Villa who signed the Argentina international on a loan deal, with the move set to become permanent should ‘certain criteria be met’. Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini is still desperate to sign a left-sided attacker and are looking to get a deal done quickly, with the Italian side kicking-off their season against Fiorentina on August 24. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. Reports from Italy, via The Sun, claim that RB Leipzig’s Antonio Nusa and Lyon’s Malick Fofana are on their shortlist, as is Jamie Gittens. Like Garnacho, Gittens only moved to Stamford Bridge last summer in a deal worth £52million from Borussia Dortmund and like Garnacho, he endured a very difficult debut season. The England youth international scored just one goal and made five assists in 27 appearances across all competitions, before sitting out the second-half of the season with a hamstring injury. Jamie Gittens scored just one goal in his debut season at Chelsea (Photo: Getty) It was reported in June that Chelsea were willing to be patient with Gittens but that was before Xabi Alonso splashed a record £117m on left-sided attacker Morgan Rogers. The 22-year-old was an unused substitute in Saturday’s 3-0 pre-season win over AC Milan and with no European football this season, Gittens may struggle for game time. Roma do not have much transfer funds to play with, so it is expected they would seek a loan move for the winger but it remains to be seen whether Alonso would sanction his departure. Roma boss Gian Piero Gasperini is desperate to sign a new left winger (Photo: Getty) Gittens is not among the 11 players that Chelsea are reportedly trying to sell before the transfer window closes and would be the only back-up option to Rogers should Pedro Neto and Mykhailo Mudryk depart. The Blues have two more friendlies to play before they begin the season with a trip to west London rivals Fulham on August 24. For more stories like this, check our sport page.
