Tottenham close to completing two deals
Jose Mourinho is striving to transform Spurs after a sloppy start to the season.. After signing Matt Doherty and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, he still wants two players, both currently at Real Madrid. According to reports, he’s close to closing the two deals for Sergio Reguilon and Gareth Bale.
Reguilon is set for a medical exam today, but Bale is still negotiating his exit from Madrid. If the signing goes through, he’ll play for Tottenham on loan for the season. He’s eager for the move as he’s been clashing with Real boss Zinedine Zidane.
The two teammates could be what Spurs need to redeem themselves after the 1-0 loss to Everton on the Premier League opening weekend.

Aubameyang adds three years to Arsenal contract
Since the end of the last season, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Many believed the Gabon international had set his sights on joining a Champions League team.
Despite Barca and Inter Milan offering him a deal, the Arsenal captain decided to stay where he is and follow in the footsteps of legends such as Henry, Thierry, Bergkamp, and Patrick Viera. The club is special to him, and the fans love his style and finishing capability.
Aubameyang has been an excellent leader in his captaincy, and he’s a crucial part of the squad on the field. During the FA Cup final, the Gabon international netted Arsenal to victory. He also bagged one for the Gunners during the opening EPL game.

The Manly Sea Eagles of the National Rugby League are letting Addin Fonua-Blake go, and he’s reported without a club next year. However, the Warriors want him on their squad so it could work out.

We’ll keep track of where the star prop lands because he’ll bring an established presence wherever he ends. He’s definitely a performer that many teams will want on their side.
