Transfer Update: Swansea City are keeping an eye on the situation regarding Millwall’s striker.
Sheffield Wednesday might pivot to signing Sory Kaba from Las Palmas due to the potential high cost of securing Ike Ugbo from Troyes permanently. Ugbo, who joined on loan from the French club and previously played for Cardiff City, impressed with seven goals and one assist in 19 games, aiding in the club’s Championship survival. However, financial constraints could hinder a permanent move for Ugbo, prompting Wednesday to consider Kaba, who has Championship experience from his spell with Cardiff in the 2022/23 season and is now available for transfer after just one season with Las Palmas.
West Brom have initiated contact with Josh Windass, a Sheffield Wednesday player whose contract expires this summer. Windass, who played a crucial role in Sheffield Wednesday’s final three games of the season by scoring in each match, is likely to leave the club despite being offered a new contract.

The future of Klay Thompson as a free agent is a looming question for the Golden State Warriors. General manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. expressed the team’s desire to retain Thompson, stating, “We want him back.” Despite this, negotiations between Thompson and the Warriors have stalled, with no discussions or offers currently on the table. Thompson, a five-time All-Star, has averaged 17.9 points per game last season but is considering his options, with teams like the Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers showing interest. Signs suggest Thompson might be looking for a new start, as he has removed references to the Warriors from his social media and there have been hints of negotiation difficulties. Mike Dunleavy acknowledged the challenge of balancing business and personal relationships, emphasizing the need to find a role and financial arrangement that benefits both the franchise and Thompson.
Real Betis are actively pursuing a transfer for Leeds United defender Diego Llorente this summer, as reported by MARCA. The Spanish club’s sporting director, Manu Fajardo, is closely monitoring Llorente’s situation, waiting to see if they can compete for his transfer. Despite Leeds United’s need for defensive reinforcements, Llorente’s departure would likely not cause much concern among fans. Having spent the last 18 months on loan with Roma, the Italian club’s interest in signing him permanently has diminished. Additionally, the sale of Marc Roca to Real Betis could also benefit Leeds, as they consider offloading players following their failure to secure promotion back to the Premier League.
Sheffield United and Stoke City are both competing to sign Norwich City defender Sam McCallum. Sheffield United, preparing for their return to the Championship after a last-place finish in the Premier League, and Stoke City, who finished 17th last season, are keen on the 23-year-old left-back. McCallum played 29 Championship games for Norwich City last season and is set to become a free agent at the end of the month, making him an attractive target for both clubs. Despite financial constraints due to takeover talks, Sheffield United might still pursue McCallum if the terms are favorable.
