Manchester City confirm Allan signing for initial £32.1m

Palace sell Muñoz to Forest and poised to sign Ahanor

Nick Woltemade is close to a loan move from Newcastle to Juventus, a year after arriving at St James’ Park in a club-record £69m deal from Stuttgart. The gifted Germany forward has struggled to impose himself amid the high-intensity gameplans choreographed first by Eddie Howe and now Matthias Jaissle.

Juventus are one of a handful of clubs – Borussia Dortmund are among the others – to have inquired about Woltemade’s availability and Newcastle are in negotiations with the Turin club regarding a move involving a loan fee of about £5m.
