It’s the first of the month and the transfer window in England is just ten days away from officially opening as clubs continue to make early moves and agreements.
A former Middlesbrough and Bristol City favourite looks set to earn a new contract with QPR while a former Sheffield United defender has joined a German Bundesliga side after being released by his Russian club.
Meanwhile, Reading have told a goalkeeper that he is free to leave the club this summer while Leeds United are said to be leading Newcastle United in the race to land a Birmingham City starlet.
Rotherham United will return to the second tier next season and two players are attracting interest as their contract near expiry with a defender wanted by “several” Championship clubs while Cardiff City are being linked with a striker.
Elsewhere, Blackpool are stalling over making the loan deal of a Charlton Athletic player permanent due to the £500,000 fee and Huddersfield Town are thought to be considering a move for a Cheltenham Town defender.
Finally, Norwich City are looking to bring a former MK Dons star back to England but could face competition from Swansea City and Europa League finalists Rangers.
