Latest transfer news as James Trafford re-joins Man City and Nick Pope and Aaron Ramsdale linked with moves, plus Newcastle and Liverpool pre-season updates.

The biggest talking point of the summer continues to be Alexander Isak, with his United future still up in the air as his team-mates continue their Far East jaunt. The Swede has missed the club's Asia jaunt as Liverpool linger over a potential swoop his for signature.

But after scans revealed the 25-year-old had the all clear, the striker has now been spotted training alone with a personal trainer in San Sebastian. Isak is believed to have returned to Real Sociedad's training ground for pre-season preparations according to the Spanish media.

Why the striker wants a transfer, when the club started new-contract talks and why they stopped - and what's next

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has revealed that he hopes Alexander Isak will stay at the club after recent transfer rumours.

Newcastle Falcons centre Connor Doherty signs a new deal, keeping him at the club until the end of next season.

Newcastle had previously been interested in James Trafford, but the 22-year-old has since re-joined Manchester City from Burnley.

Newcastle United are closing in on the signing of Aaron Ramsdale - and despite what some fans think it’s a signing which makes a lot of sense
