Arsenal's pursuit of Bruno Guimaraes remains one of the main talking points in Wednesday's transfer gossip, with reports suggesting the Newcastle midfielder is not trying to force his way out. The update indicates that, despite Arsenal's interest, any move would depend on the two clubs finding a deal rather than the player pushing for an exit.

Elsewhere in the latest transfer headlines, Manchester United are said to have no plans to compete with Chelsea for Danny Welbeck. That points to Chelsea being the club more closely linked at this stage, while United appear set to look elsewhere if they want to strengthen their options.

Another reported development involves Oliver Glasner, who is said to want four new signings as planning continues for the next window. Liam Delap is also mentioned as a name on Nottingham Forest's shortlist, adding another Premier League-linked striker story to the day's rumour round-up.

Joshua Zirkzee continues to attract interest from Serie A, according to the same batch of newspaper reports. As with all transfer gossip at this stage, the situation around Guimaraes, Welbeck, Delap and Zirkzee may shift quickly as clubs weigh up their budgets and priorities.
