  • Gabriel Jesus is reportedly wanted by Barcelona.

    The transfer window is in full swing!

    With the rumours growing in pace and volume during this ‘silly season’, it can be difficult and painstaking to separate the stories of some legitimacy from the rest of the white noise.

    Fortunately, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to do it for you.

    Below, you’ll find some of the latest transfer news churned out of the Rumour Mill broken down and analysed for your benefit along with our calculated predictions.

    GABRIEL JESUS – MANCHESTER CITY TO BARCELONA

    Linked with a move: Gabriel Jesus.

    Barcelona have made the Brazilian ace one of their top summer transfer targets having missed out on Antoine GriezmannAS reports.

    Why it will happen: A move to Blaugrana would be difficult to turn down for any player, so as such, you could never rule it out.

    Why it won’t happen: Manchester City will not want the forward to leave at any cost.

    Prediction: This rumour appears dead in the water before it gathered any steam.

    AARON RAMSEY – LAZIO TO ARSENAL

    What does the future hold for Aaron Ramsey?

    Lazio have lined up the Arsenal midfielder as a replacement for their Serbian star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, who is expected to make a big move after the World Cup.

    Why it will happen: The Gunners man has just one year left on his Emirates deal and this is the second to last chance for the north Londoners to recoup any cash for him.

    Why it won’t happen: A move to Italy would be a big transition for the 27-year-old Welshman, who no doubt has other alternatives in the Premier League.

    Prediction: Ramsey is set to meet with new boss Unai Emery soon and the outcome of that meeting will go a long way to deciding his future.

    JACK GREALISH  – ASTON VILLA TO TOTTENHAM

    Grealish could not inspire Aston Villa to the Premier League.

    Grealish could not inspire Aston Villa to the Premier League.

    The talented Aston Villa star has decided to leave his boyhood club this summer, The Mirror reports.

    Why it will happen: The midfielder wants to play in the Premier League next season after the Midlanders lost out in the Championship play-off final.

    Why it won’t happen: Villa could price potential suitors Spurs out of a move if they demand upwards of £40m (Dh194m).

    Prediction: It is more than likely that Grealish will move on.
