Premier League transfer round-up: Szczesny makes Juve switch

Alvaro Morata is set to confirm his move to Chelsea today rather than Manchester United - who he seemed set to join three weeks ago - but Jose Mourinho does not seem to care having wrapped up a deal for "amazing" striker Romelu Lukaku.

Just weeks ago it had appeared the two would be heading in each other's directions and that the Real Madrid frontman would be heading to Old Trafford, while Lukaku would return to Stamford Bridge three years after joining Everton.

Instead, United gazumped Chelsea to the signing of their former player and Antonio Conte's men have now agreed a deal for Morata, subject to a medical and personal terms.

Chelsea also got their hands on Antonio Rudiger earlier in the window while Alexandre Lacazette has joined Arsenal.

Liverpool's pursuit of Naby Keita is beginning to annoy Leipzig with lots of talk but little action.

The Toffees meanwhile Everton have signed six new faces including United's Wayne Rooney.

Swansea City manager Paul Clement is interested in signing Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere, but could face competition from West Ham and Newcastle for his signature, according to The Telegraph.

The 25-year-old is reported to be free to leave North London for around £20m, with only one year remaining on his current deal at the Emirates.

Arsenal have already rejected a £6m offer from Italian club Sampdoria for the England midfielder this summer.
