Premier League club-by-club transfer latest: August 4

Sports Mole rounds up all the done deals and transfer speculation involving all 20 Premier League clubs.

With a little under four weeks to go until the transfer window closes, deals are being done on a regular basis.

That is particularly true of clubs in the Premier League, with the new season due to get underway on Saturday, August 16.

Here, Sports Mole has picked out all of the major completed transfers and speculation from each of the 20 clubs over the past seven days.

Arsenal

Arsene Wenger has certainly loosened the purse strings this summer. Having signed Alexis Sanchez and David Ospina, the Gunners parted with £16m to sign right-back Calum Chambers from Southampton last week.

The arrival of the England youth international has come at cost to Carl Jenkinson, though. The full-back has joined West Ham on loan, while club captain Thomas Vermaelen is said to be a target of both Manchester United and Barcelona.

Aston Villa

Italian champions Juventus are the latest club to have been linked with a move for Villa skipper Ron Vlaar. However, manager Paul Lambert has insisted that the Dutch international is content to remain with the club.

In terms of incomings, Chelsea winger Victor Moses is thought to be a target, while midfielder Fabian Delph has expressed his desire to extend his current contract with the club.

Burnley

There have been no new arrivals at Turf Moor recently, but manager Sean Dyche has insisted that he is still pursuing a number of targets to bolster his newly-promoted squad.

One player that will not be leaving the club, though, is Ben Mee. The former Manchester City defender has extended his contract with Burnley by another three years.

Chelsea

There is arguably not a better transfer negotiating team than the one at Stamford Bridge. Having received big fees for the likes of Juan Mata and David Luiz in recent months, they've now been given a hefty £28m from Everton for Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian international could be joined out of the exit door by Petr Cech, who is said to be wanted by Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid centre-back Miranda won't be arriving in West London, though, after the Brazilian stated his intention to remain in the Spanish capital.

Crystal Palace

The Eagles have benefited from Brede Hangeland's release by Fulham at the end of last season by signing the big Norwegian centre-back on a free transfer. The 33-year-old has agreed a one-year contract at Selhurst Park.

He could be joined in the near future by Southampton midfielder Jack Cork and Stoke City's versatile defender Marc Wilson, both of whom are said to be top targets of Palace manager Tony Pulis.

Everton

The Toffees smashed their transfer record on Wednesday evening by parting with £28m to sign Lukaku from Chelsea. The striker had a successful loan stint at Goodison Park last term.

Such an outlay is likely to limit Roberto Martinez throughout the remainder of the transfer window, although the Spaniard has revealed that he is still keen to recruit a winger. Among his targets is believed to be Chelsea youngster Christian Atsu.

Hull City

Manager Steve Bruce had made little secret in recent weeks of his desire to bolster his defensive options at the KC Stadium and on Tuesday afternoon he did just that by signing youngsters Harry Maguire and Andrew Robertson from Sheffield United and Dundee United respectively.

Further speculation has claimed that Bruce is not done in the transfer market either, with Stoke defender Geoff Cameron said to be a target.

Leicester City

It's all been very quiet on the transfer front at the King Power Stadium, with the Foxes having lost out to Crystal Palace for Fraizer Campbell's signature.

Reports have suggested that Leicester boss Nigel Pearson has now turned his attention to Troy Deeney, but Watford are thought to have rejected both their first and second approaches for the centre-forward.

Liverpool

Following all the confusion over Loic Remy's move to Liverpool which fell through at the 11th hour, Brendan Rodgers is said to have turned his attention to other targets. Among those thought to be under consideration is PSV Eindhoven youngster Zakaria Bakkali.

There could also be two further arrivals at Anfield in the form of full-backs Alberto Moreno and Javi Manquillo, but Rodgers has ruled out a move for AC Milan's former Man City striker Mario Balotelli.

Manchester City

Manager Manuel Pellegrini has probably pulled off the biggest shock of the transfer market so far by securing Frank Lampard's services on a six-month loan deal. The former Chelsea man will join up with his parent club New York City in January.

There is also positive news from midfielders Yaya Toure and James Milner, both of whom have suggested in recent days that they are happy to remain at the Etihad Stadium, despite reports having linked them with moves away.

Manchester United

With United due back in England tomorrow, the revolving door is expected to start turning over the coming days. Indeed, Louis van Gaal confirmed at a recent press conference that he would soon be telling his players which of them will not be in his plans next season.

Marouane Fellaini, Javier Hernandez, Shinji Kagawa and Wilfried Zaha are among those that are said to be available, while Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal is still thought to be a target. One report has claimed that the Italian club want Hernandez, Nani and cash for the Chilean international.

Newcastle United

It's been an exciting summer on Tyneside and that theme continued at the weekend with the confirmation that Facundo Ferreyra has arrived on a season-long deal from Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk.

Alan Pardew has also hinted that further signings could be made, with Nottingham Forest's Jamaal Lascelles and Karl Darlow said to be a target of the Newcastle boss.

Queens Park Rangers

Having signed defenders Rio Ferdinand and Steven Caulker, QPR boss Harry Redknapp has secured a deal with Juventus to sign Chilean right-back Mauricio Isla on loan.

A number of players have been linked with switches to Loftus Road, including Zaha, Rafael van der Vaart, Jordan Mutch and even former Brazilian international Ronaldinho.

Southampton

Ten players have departed the St Mary's Stadium already this summer, but chairman Ralph Krueger has insisted that the club are determined to keep hold of both Morgan Schneiderlin and Jay Rodriguez. That did not go down too well with the former of those players, who is thought to be determined to join Tottenham.

On a more positive note, Chelsea full-back Ryan Bertrand has signed a season-long loan deal on the South Coast, while Saphir Taider is expected to arrive from Inter Milan in a deal that will see Pablo Osvaldo move in the opposite direction.

Stoke City

Following the arrival of Bojan from Barcelona, rumours were rife that Stoke would need to sell at least one player to balance the books. As a result, Peter Crouch, Brek Shea and Marc Wilson have all been linked with exits.

However, where Crouch is concerned, manager Mark Hughes has insisted that despite reported interest from West Ham, the former England international will remain at the Britannia Stadium.

Sunderland

As Sunderland's pursuit of Liverpool frontman Fabio Borini continues to stutter, Gus Poyet is thought to have turned his attention to alternative options. One report has claimed that contact has been made with Palermo regarding the availability of Abel Hernandez.

Connor Wickham's current contract situation continues to be a cause for concern, though. The England Under-21 international has just 12 months left to run on his deal at the Stadium of Light, with West Ham said to be waiting in the wings.

Swansea City

There have been conflicting quotes coming out of Swansea regarding the future of last season's leading goalscorer Wilfried Bony. Manager Garry Monk has issued a hands off warning to potential suitors, whereas chairman Huw Jenkins conceded that the club would find it difficult to reject a big offer for the Ivorian.

As far as arrivals are concerned, Monk has confirmed that Tottenham full-back Kyle Naughton is among his list of transfer targets.

Tottenham Hotspur

Things are starting to move at White Hart Lane, with Sporting Lisbon centre-back Eric Dier becoming the club's third signing of the summer. The 20-year-old is believed to have cost Spurs £4m.

Unsurprisingly, a host of other players have been linked with moves to North London, including Mateo Musacchio, Memphis Depay and Samuel Eto'o. Meanwhile, where their pursuit of Schneiderlin from Southampton is concerned, it has been claimed that Nacer Chadli will be offered as a makeweight.

West Bromwich Albion

Southampton have recently been linked with Parma winger Jonathan Biabiany, but a report in Italy has suggested that West Brom boss Alan Irvine is eager to sign the Frenchman.

In an otherwise quiet week at The Hawthorns, young defender Donervon Daniels has been allowed to join Championship side Blackpool on a one-month loan basis.

West Ham United

With Andy Carroll sidelined for a number of months through injury, Sam Allardyce has been tipped to add another striker to his playing squad at Upton Park. According to one report, former Chelsea frontman Eto'o is believed to be a target.

The Hammers have managed to get Enner Valencia's deal over the line, though, after the Ecuador international was granted a work permit.
