As England advanced into the last 16 of the 2026 World Cup after a dramatic comeback win over DR Congo, several of the nation’s biggest clubs are just as busy shaping their own summer storylines.

With major deals moving forward and new targets emerging, the Premier League transfer window shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

Football Whispers takes a look at the top stories of the day.

Tottenham Hotspur are set to move for another West Ham United star after already prising Mateus Fernandes from the relegated side.

Reports now indicate that Spurs, who are closing in on the record signing of Sandro Tonali, have identified Hammers winger Crysencio Summerville as their next target.

The 24‑year‑old has been on international duty with the Netherlands, who suffered a gutting penalty‑shootout defeat to Morocco earlier this week.

It is understood that ‘serious talks' will now take place between the two clubs over a deal for Summerville, who is valued at more than £50 million.

Everton are having a quiet transfer window so far, but that could spark into life after the World Cup, with a Senegal star now on their radar.

The Lions of Teranga suffered a devastating extra‑time defeat to Belgium after leading 2‑0, a result that has freed up several players for club discussions.

One of those is Pape Gueye, per reports, after the Villarreal midfielder who stole the show in the group stage with two goals and an assist against Iraq.

The 27-year-old is now attracting interest from David Moyes as a potential Idrissa Gana Gueye replacement should the veteran not sign a new deal.

Not every signing Arsenal make this summer is going to be a blockbuster starter.

According to the BBC, the Gunners hold a ‘strong interest' in Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier, who is being considered as a potential replacement for Kepa Arrizabalaga.

There is thought to be some uncertainty over the Spaniard’s immediate future at the Emirates Stadium, meaning a new No.2 goalkeeper may be required.

Meslier would be an intriguing option, with the Frenchman having lost his starting spot at Leeds United and now available on a free transfer.
