Diego Godin agrees deal to join Inter Milan

Diego Godin is finally set to end his time at Atletico Madrid and head out of Spain. Cadena Ser reports that the Uruguayan defender has agreed terms with Inter Milan and will be joining them on a free transfer in the summer on a 2-year deal.

Godin was in the final 12 months of his contract when the season began and Manchester United made a move for him. However, he rebuffed the move to stay at Atletico and sign a new contract but it looks like the Spanish side have decided to think about the future and let the star defender leave.

Sevilla priced out of Morata move

Sevilla have confirmed that they were keen on signing Alvaro Morata but have been priced out of a move by Chelsea. The Spanish side's president has also revealed that there are other 'big clubs' interested in signing the former Real Madrid star and thus they have ended their interest in the striker.

“We spoke with Morata and his agent, there was a lot of desire for him to join Sevilla. However, there are many powerful clubs who have more financial muscle than Sevilla who have shown an interest, so the option of Morata is no longer a possibility,” the Andalusian club’s president Jose Castro told Onda Cero.

Valencia agree terms with Chicharito

Valencia have agreed terms with Javier Hernandez according to Marca. The West Ham striker is looking to leave the Premier League side and is keen on moving back to Spain as per the report.

Marca report that the Spanish side are now looking to agree a deal with the Hammers for the Mexican striker. The London side are not willing to let go of the former Manchester United star as Marko Arunatovic's future at the club is also in doubts.

Barcelona eye Olivier Giroud

Barcelona are keen on signing a striker this window and have set sights on several targets. Their latest target, according to SPORT, is Chelsea's Olivier Giroud.

The Catalan side were keen on signing Alvaro Morata as well earlier this month but it looks like Chelsea's demands have ended their interest, just like Sevilla. The former Arsenal striker is in the final 6-months of his contract but Barcelona want him to join them this month itself.

Barca have also been linked with a move for Girona's Cristhian Stuani. The Uruguayan striker has a €15 million release clause and activating it might be a lot cheaper than what Chelsea would demand for Giroud.

Ousmane Dembele offered to Manchester United

Ousmane Dembele's time at Barcelona has been a controversial one and it looks like it is coming to an end. The Frenchman has been incredible on the pitch but his off-field activities have made Barcelona think twice about having him at the club.

The winger has been offered to Manchester United according to Diario GOL. They claim that apart from the Premier League side, he has also been offered to Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid.

Chelsea slap huge price tag on Eden Hazard

Eden Hazard to Real Madrid has been the transfer talk for a long time now and the player has only added fuel to the fire by revealing his dream to join Los Blancos. With him entering the final 12 months of his contract at Stamford Bridge, things are going to heat up even more.

Telegraph report that Chelsea have made it clear to Real Madrid that it will cost more than £100 million for them to sign the Belgian in the summer. They are not willing to negotiate a price lower than that and will not be forced into selling him.

James Rodriguez agrees to join Liverpool

With the stunning news of the day are Don Balon. The Spanish publication report that James Rodriguez has decided to join Liverpool in the summer when his loan deal at Bayern Munich ends.

The Bundesliga side have an option to buy him for cheap but have decided against it. Real Madrid are unwilling to keep him and thus it has forced the Colombian to find a new club.

Arsenal were keen on taking him but the 2014 World Cup star picked Liverpool as his next club. Don Balon also report that the Red will launch a £62 million bid for him to secure the deal.
