Transfer Window Heats Up: Digne and Rogers Moves Confirmed; Chelsea Push for Lacroix; Man Utd Await Rashford Decision
0
The summer transfer window is delivering plenty of drama. insider has provided major updates on several key stories, including two sealed deals and a high-stakes negotiation that could reshape the Premier League.
Lucas Digne to PSG – Official
Aston Villa left-back Lucas Digne has completed his move to Paris Saint-Germain. Romano confirmed that all formal steps have been finalised: the release clause was triggered, the paperwork is done, and Digne has signed a three-year contract. The transfer fee comes in at under €10 million.
Morgan Rogers to Chelsea – Done Deal
Chelsea have also wrapped up a blockbuster signing, landing Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa for a stunning £117 million. Romano reported that the agreement was reached over the weekend, and the player has now put pen to paper. Rogers is officially a Chelsea player.
Chelsea Lock In on Lacroix
With Rogers secured, Chelsea have turned their attention to Crystal Palace centre-back Maxence Lacroix. Romano described the talks as “active and concrete,” with all parties – including ownership groups and the player’s camp – in direct communication. Reports linking Arsenal to the race are not accurate at this stage. Lacroix is open to the move and fully focused on Chelsea. The clubs are now negotiating the final fee, and Chelsea are pushing hard to get the deal over the line.
Man Utd’s Window: New Signings and a Rashford Wait
Manchester United have already announced the arrivals of Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans, and Karl Darlow this summer. But their next moves depend heavily on the future of Marcus Rashford.
According to Romano, United are not actively pursuing a new winger – including Crysencio Summerville, who is in talks with Roma – because they want to keep their attacking structure intact unless Rashford leaves. Rashford is set to begin pre-season under new coach Michael Carrick, who is “genuinely excited” about reviving the forward’s career. Both player and club are prepared to give each other another chance before making a final decision later in the window.
Romano also noted that United admire Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye, but again, the Rashford situation is blocking any progress for now. If Rashford moves, the door could open for a new winger – but for now, all eyes remain on Carrick and Rashford’s reunion at Carrington.
