That intends Barca will either suffer her connected a free successful 12 months' clip aliases they could rate successful connected her this summertime pinch respective clubs interested.

Arsenal person a longstanding interest, while Chelsea are successful nan marketplace for a midfielder and would person nan funds.

The problem is that Barcelona do not want to sell. They are not prepared to sanction a value - though there's a wide statement that it would person to beryllium a world-record interest should they see immoderate offer. We're astatine a spot of a stand-off, basically.

It was a Spanish slope vacation connected Wednesday and Barca person a convention crippled against Real Socieded astatine 19:00 BST connected Friday evening, a fewer hours earlier nan WSL transportation deadline - truthful nan model for immoderate business is small!

We will person to hold and see.

Si: If Villa motion Gabi Nunes is that their transportation business done aliases will they adhd immoderate more?

They are besides looking astatine perchance sending 1 aliases 2 of their young players retired connected loan. Those conversations are happening now.

Trevor: Are location immoderate players apt to time off Chelsea earlier nan deadline? Like their men’s squad they person a large squad.

Emma: They want to fortify their extent successful midfield but they are besides looking astatine a fewer indebtedness options for immoderate of their young players truthful location could beryllium activity successful and out.

I deliberation they person recruited powerfully but nan jump up from nan Women’s Championship to nan WSL is immense and we've seen newly-promoted clubs struggle successful caller years.

It will beryllium difficult but I deliberation Palace could person capable to decorativeness supra West Ham if they get disconnected to a bully commencement and tin settee quickly.

Matt: Is location immoderate activity expected for Everton? Their defence still looks very light.

Emma: We reported nan nine offered a short-term woody to goalkeeper Rylee Foster but nan documents person still not been signed truthful we're waiting to spot if that 1 goes through.

It intends they person had to look elsewhere and truthful far, United person not made immoderate progress.

Chiara: What are nan chances of Spurs signing a midfielder to screen for Kit Graham’s ACL injury, and a first prime goalkeeper?
