Transfer news LIVE: Barcola to Liverpool, Arsenal's Alvarez pursuit

Chelsea remain prominent in the transfer market as the window enters the final stretch on Sunday, August 30, with Enzo Fernandez seemingly nearing Manchester City. That potential move could shape what Xabi Alonso does next, given the ripple effects across other targets. Arsenal’s pursuit of Julian Alvarez also looks at risk of stalling, which could force the club back into the market. Liverpool, meanwhile, are still pushing for Bradley Barcola, who appears to be edging toward a high-profile switch to the Emirates. Elsewhere, there’s ongoing uncertainty around Marcus Rashford, even after he was re-integrated into Manchester United by Michael Carrick.
