1. Chris Smalling To West Brom

What’s the story?
Chris Smalling has been a Manchester United player for the past 7 years, and if reports mentioned in Transfer Market Web are said to be true, his time at the club could be coming to an end this summer. The defender is apparently wanted by a number of Premier League clubs, including West Bromwich Albion.
Should the deal take place?
The English centre-back has seen a dip in form in the past season, and the arrival of Victor Lindelof surely means that game time will now be harder to come by. With Phil Jones, Daley Blind, and Marcos Rojo among the ranks at Old Trafford, getting into the starting XI on a regular basis will not be an easy task to achieve. The player will be desperate to be a part of The Three Lions’ world cup squad for 2018, and heading to a club that gives him ample amount of time to be out on the pitch will be the wisest choice to make.
Possibility of it happening
Tony Pulis is a man that loves big defenders in his side, and hence, Smalling would be an ideal fit in West Brom’s squad for next season. The possibility of him heading to the Hawthorns is currently 7/10.
2. Diego Costa To AC Milan

What’s the story?
With Diego Costa still available and up for grabs in the transfer market, Standard News suggest that AC Milan could be the final destination the striker heads to. After already having spent £150 million so far this summer, the Italian side is still in search of a major centre forward signing, and Costa has emerged as the apparent answer to that particular problem.
Should the deal take place?
Costa is currently at the peak of his career, and was instrumental in Chelsea’s title-winning season this year. Atletico Madrid were said to be the club in pole position to sign their former player, but a demand of £50 million has kept Diego Simeone’s side out of the deal so far. Milan are looking to bring in the player on a permanent basis, and given the club’s as well as Costa’s hunger to be the best again, the deal might make perfect sense.
Possibility of it happening
The chances of Costa heading to the Serie A are currently 8/10.
3. Sergio Aguero To Arsenal

What’s the story?
In what is turning out to be the craziest transfer window of the Premier League since a long time, news in the Gambling Times of Sergio Aguero joining Arsenal has taken the internet by storm and surprise.
Should the deal take place?
Given the fact that Alexis Sanchez is being keenly chased by Manchester City and Sergio Aguero is being considered surplus to requirements by Pep Guardiola, an exchange of the two attackers might not be the strangest idea in the world. While Wenger remains desperate to hold on to the Chilean superstar, trading him for an equally gifted goal-getter, if not better, might just help things head in the right direction at the Emirates.
Possibility of it happening
This might be one of the most exaggerated rumours of the summer, but it certainly raises eyebrows all around. However, the possibility of the Argentine international coming to the North London club is currently 2/10.
4. Samir Nasri To Nice

What’s the story?
If there is one player who is in desperate need of game time and a major career restart, it is none other than Manchester City outcast Samir Nasri. The player is currently on the verge of finally heading out of the Etihad this summer, and according to reports in the Daily Mail, Nice could well be his next destination.
Should the deal take place?
The midfielder has found it tough to be a regular starter in Manchester in the seasons gone by. After spending last season on loan in Sevilla, the French international might fancy a permanent move elsewhere and give his falling career a chance to finally head uphill. The move is one that should take place, and for Nasri’s sake, it should do so soon.
Possibility of it happening
The possibility of Samir Nasri heading to the Ligue 1 is currently 8/10.
