Nigerian forward Brown Ideye has arrived in southern Spain to undergo a medical with LaLiga strugglers Málaga, ahead of a mooted loan move from Chinese club Tianjin Teda.
Vicente Guaita has passed a medical in London and is about to complete his move to Crystal Palace. The Premier League side have met the player's 8 million euro buy-out, bringing to an end his three and a half seasons with Getafe.
Laporte flew from Bilbao to Manchester last night and will undergo a medical revision before completing his move to Manchester City, according to Spanish radio. More on that here:
As reported here yesterday, Málaga have been chasing Brown Ideye and appear to have a verbal agreement with the Nigerian who is expected to fly out to Spain for a medical today. The 29-year-old striker will spend the remainder of the season on loan at La Rosaleda which effectively closes the door on Everton's Sandro Ramirez returning.
It looks like Celta have lost out in their attempt to lure Lucas Boyé to Balaídos. The Galicians wanted to insert a clause into their loan deal proposal but Torino have got cold feet and now are not willing to let the left winger go.
Betis are close to landing Porto left-back Miguel Layún. The Verdiblancos are keen to take the multi-purpose defender on loan with an option to buy him in the summer but Porto prefer a straight transfer.
Barcelona will give China-bound Javier Mascherano a send-off before tonight's Copa del Rey quarter final return leg against Espanyol. The Argentinean is all set to continue his career in Asia with Hebei China Fortune.
Rafa Benítez wants to bring Atlético de Madrid striker Kevin Gameiro to St James Park according to the Express. However, with Torres and Gaitán more likely to leave over the summer, it looks doubtful that Simeone will give the order for the French forward to leave.
In Catalunya, Grêmio whizz Arthur graces the front cover of MD, who report that the player has given his approval for a summer move to Camp Nou. Barça will pay 25 million euros for the 21-year-old Brazilian midfielder.
