Premier League clubs are ramping up their transfer plans now that Euro 2024 is over. The likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool will all see summer targets return to their clubs over the coming weeks, making discussions easier.

Several clubs are in need of major surgery this summer. There was a familiar feeling at United on Monday, with Erik ten Hag already bemoaning the quality of performances after a 1-0 defeat by Rosenborg.

The Red Devils have signed Joshua Zirkzee and are attempting to close a deal for Leny Yoro. Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham are also hoping to have their own plans wrapped up over the coming weeks.

33 mins ago08:12Sam SmithLiverpool 'confident' over deal for England ace

Liverpool are reportedly 'confident' they can land Marc Guehi this summer.

The Crystal Palace defender shone for England during Euro 2024.

His performances earned rave reviews and will have caught the attention of top clubs.

According to Team Talk, one of those teams are Liverpool.

It is claimed that the Reds are 'confident' that a £65m deal can be struck.

The 24-year-old centre-back, formerly of Chelsea, has two years remaining on his contract at Palace, making a potential sale likely.

Palace are understood to be hopeful of agreeing a new deal with Guehi.

Arsenal are reportedly set to launch a bid for Spain hero Mikel Merino.

The former Newcastle midfielder scored a dramatic 120th minute goal against Germany in the Euro 2024 quarter-final.

He went on to win the trophy with Spain.

According to the Daily Telegraph, Arsenal have a long-held interest in the 28-year-old and are preparing to make an offer to Real Sociedad.

Manchester United hope to hear a decision from Leny Yoro on his future over the coming days.

However, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly launching a clever plan to ensure the Red Devils do not fall short if the Frenchman decides to join Real Madrid.

According to Sky Germany, United have made enquiries about Bundesliga champion Jonathan Tah over the past week.

Tah was widely expected to join Bayern Munich this summer but that move has not yet materialised.

It could allow United to steal in and snap up the experienced centre-back, 28, should Yoro opt against a switch to Old Trafford.
