We've got just over a month until the transfer window shuts for clubs to get their business wrapped up and those squad numbers filled

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini is playing it coy over reported target Eliaquim Mangala.
There was some confusion last week when City released a video that appeared to suggest they had signed the Porto defender for £32million.
But Pellegrini has told the Manchester Evening News... well... nothing really. "I think it's important not to talk about things that are not 100 per cent, so I'll keep my opinion about that," he said.

It looks like defender Jan Vertonghen is staying at Tottenham.
The Belgian says there is no truth in rumours that he wants to leave White Hart Lane to join Spanish side Barcelona. And on top of that he has actually been offered a new five-year deal with the north London club.
Vertonghen told Belgian talk show Vive le Velo. "Where there's smoke, there's fire, they say, but for the moment there is certainly no fire." Sounds pretty conclusive.

Real Sociedad (wonderfully google translated as "The Royal Society" which sounds like a Wes Anderson film) have given their thanks to Griezmann.
"The Royal Society would like to thank Antoine Griezmann the professionalism and dedication shown during his years spent at our club, while wishing you the best for your personal and professional future."
Awwww

*DONE DEAL KLAXON*
Ooh we have our first done deal of the day!
Atletico Madrid have confirmed the signing of Spurs and Liverpool target Antoine Griezmann.
The French winger impressed during the World Cup and will now hook up with the Spanish champions for next season.
The Reds are ready to plunder Southampton further with a move for Jay Rodriguez.
They could also complete the signing of Belgian starlet Divock Origi any minute now.
AND they want Arsenal's Thomas Vermaelen.
Phew! Busy times at Anfield.

Here's the latest goss from today's papers, with an update on United target Kevin Strootman at Roman and Javier Hernandez, who could be on his way out of Old Trafford.

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers wants to be frugal.
He has money, oh he has lots of money alright, but he'll only spend it where necessary. A bit like Kevin McCloud renovating some weird wooden house in the middle of nowhere on a budget.
After Loic Remy's move from QPR collapsed the Reds could be looking for more strikers.
*Wilfried Bony and Jay Rodriguez turn their phones on loud*

Never go back to someone to rejected you. That's my mantra for life.
But Manchester United clearly don't share that outlook on life as they are set to return to Juve for the love of their life Arturo Vidal.
The Chilean appeared to flat out snub the Red Devils last week but that won't put LVG and co off, as they prepare to offer a whopping £48m for the midfielder.

There will be no shortage of family drama in season 10 of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. The first look trailer released Monday for the upcoming season of the highly-popular E! series features plenty of fights, sex, romance and even infringement claims for reality television's favourite family. In one of the more tense moments in the clip, Kim Kardashian appears to lash out at younger sister Kendall Jenner, who has a fast growing modelling career.
The domestic violence case between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp is getting messier by the minute, and now they're dragging other people in the midst of their conflict. Depp apparently accused his wife of cheating on him with Billy Bob Thornton back in 2015, but the actor has completely denied all allegations. 'Our Brand Is Crisis' star Billy Bob Thornton has branded the suggestion that he slept with Amber Heard during the production of their latest movie 'London Fields' as 'completely false' according to reports from TMZ . The story is that he 'never socialized with Amber off set, other than a cast dinner', and adds that he had no on-set contact with her either, other than in a professional capacity. Of course, in the movie, their character's are close; it follows the story of a manipulative young woman named Nicola Six (Heard) who strings along three men including a writer named Samson Young (Thornton) in a bid to bring about her own murder.
