Reports are suggesting Saido Berahino could be on his way to the Etihad Stadium. More on that one here.

Meanwhile, news coming out of the red side of Manchester overnight is that Louis van Gaal has had enough of the David de Gea transfer saga. The goalkeeper has been linked with Real Madrid all summer and Van Gaal now seems to be ready to let the Spain international leave.

Looking for a round-up of all the overnight transfer news? Well, we have got you covered with our 8am Transfer Talk Update.
