Evening StandardTransfer news LIVE! Berardi to Spurs; Aouar to Arsenal; Sancho; Chelsea FC, Man Utd, Liverpool gossip today
The summer transfer window is now well up and running and we are starting to see clubs across Europe step up their efforts to spend some cash and refresh their respective squads.
