FootballTransfers published a transfer-rumour roundup on 26 October featuring claims involving Alex Scott, Jarrad Branthwaite and Estevao, along with updates linked to Crystal Palace and several clubs across Europe.
Scott and Chelsea claim
FootballTransfers, citing Si Philips, reported that Chelsea have reportedly agreed personal terms to sign Alex Scott in January, with Bournemouth resigned to losing him.
FootballTransfers said Si Philips has claimed that personal terms are still 'largely' in place with Alex Scott after being agreed in the summer.
Bournemouth would ask for more than €100m for Scott, but all parties are keen for a quick resolution, meaning a deal could be closed almost as soon as the transfer window opens on January 1.
Branthwaite and Manchester United
Manchester United are still keen on signing Jarrad Branthwaite in 2027, having pursued the Everton defender for many years previously.
FootballTransfers said Football Insider claim that United are set to revive their interest in Jarrad Branthwaite as they look to rebuild their defence in the next two transfer windows.
Estevao game-time issue
FootballTransfers said TEAMtalk claim that Estevao is growing frustrated with his lack of game time and may consider his future at Chelsea if it doesn't improve by January.
The 19-year-old has played just 47 minutes of Premier League action under Xabi Alonso this season.
Estevao was left on the bench for the majority of Chelsea's loss to Tottenham on Saturday, with fellow youngster Geovany Quenda getting the start.
Other rumours in the roundup
FootballTransfers said Sean Dyche is the frontrunner for the Crystal Palace job if the Eagles sack manager Pierre Sage.
FootballTransfers said Thomas Frank and ex-Wolves manager Vitor Pereira could also be in the running for the Palace job along with former Ferencvaros boss Robbie Keane.
FootballTransfers said Dodo is set to leave Fiorentina when his contract ends in the summer, with AC Milan, Juventus and Barcelona linked with the 27-year-old.
FootballTransfers said Tottenham Hotspur will demand a significant transfer fee to sell Pedro Porro amid reported interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona.
FootballTransfers said Juventus are monitoring Rayan Aït-Nouri as the Manchester City left-back has had limited game time this season.
