Its been a summer of much speculation and little action so far in the Premier League transfer window, but it looks set to heat up in the coming weeks.
AC Milan are still favourites to sign out-of-sorts Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho from Barcelona, but Manchester City are still determined to land the former World Player of the Year, reportedly offering £25.5million for his services to the Catalan club.
Tottenham are reportedly trying to agree a fee with Blackburn for David Bentley, with Liverpool's Jermaine Pennant set to replace him at Ewood Park.
Liverpool seem set to use the funds raised from the Pennant transfer, along with the sale of Scott Carson to Stoke, West Brom or Middlesbrough and Peter Crouch's switch to Pompey to finalise a deal with Aston Villa for Gareth Barry, and tempt the Spurs board with a bid for £20million rated Robbie Keane.
Manchester United are still interested in fellow Spurs striker Dimitar Berbatov and could finally complete a transfer after years of speculation over a move to Old Trafford. But no one is any the wiser over whether he will brought it to play with or replace Cristiano Ronaldo, who has made no secret of his desire to secure a 'dream move' to Real Madrid.
And Premier League newboys Hull are set to complete the signing of the experienced Dutch midfielder George Boateng once he passes a medical.
