Exclusive: Rangers have made a fresh approach to Josh Windass to discuss bringing him back to Ibrox. It follows an attempt in January which Wrexham rebuffed.

🚨 BREAKING: Bunny Shaw has decided to stay at Manchester City and has signed a new deal until summer 2030. Shaw had indicated in early May she wished to explore other options amidst firm Chelsea interest, but she has now agreed terms to stay.

Yan Diomande remains a leading target for Liverpool, as reported in April. PSG are also considering a move, while the Leipzig winger is on Manchester United's list of options as well. Liverpool view Diomande as a strong fit, and capable of playing both sides. Key to any deal will be Leipzig's asking price, which is currently at around €100m. Leipzig would ideally like Diomande to sign a new deal, but haven't discounted a sale. Bradley Barcola another target if PSG open to the door to an exit. Not a given, but PSG stance could soften if they find a replacement. Liverpool have a historical interest in Anthony Gordon, who almost joined in summer 2024, but it is Bayern who remain in talks. Arsenal another club who appreciate Gordon. As revealed in March, Liverpool are likely to sign either two wingers, or one and a more versatile attacker.🔴
