Crystal Palace are interested in Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun, the Mail say.

Palace and Newcastle are both said to have asked about the 26-year-old ahead of a possible move.

Tosun, who was born in Germany but has 18 caps for Turkey, scored 24 goals for Besiktas last season.

The Mail also say Tottenham were interested in Demarai Gray but are not looking to sign the Leicester man.

The Mail previously linked Gray with a possible move to Spurs amid months of speculation over his future.

The Independent, on the other hand, suggest Spurs remain interested and could yet make a pre-deadline move to sign him.

Palace have more recently been linked with Gray, as have Everton and Bournemouth.

Meanwhile, Tottenham are close to completing the signing of Juan Foyth and are trying push through a deal for Paris St-Germain right-back Serge Aurier, The Guardian reports.

Spurs look set to sign highly-rated Argentine defender Foyth (pictured) from Estudiantes for £8m, while a deal worth around £23m has been agreed with PSG for Aurier.

Aurier has reportedly agreed terms but has personal issues to resolve before a move can be completed.

QPR are looking to arrange a loan move for Sean Goss and are set to complete the signing of Exeter winger David Wheeler, West London Sport reports.

West London Sport also reports that QPR have had an offer for Blackpool winger Bright Osayi-Samuel rejected.

West Ham are selling Diafra Sakho to French club Rennes, according to reports.

The Senegalese striker is on his way out of the London Stadium in a deal worth £9m, The Sun reported on Wednesday.

He is apparently expected to agree personal terms and complete the move ahead of Thursday’s deadline.

Sky Sports News have followed that up by reporting that Sakho has completed a medical and is set to finalise the move.

However, posting on Twitter in response, co-chairman David Sullivan’s son Jack appeared to suggest that Sakho will in fact be staying.

The Daily Mirror say Monaco could make a move for West Ham target William Carvalho.

The Mirror also say West Brom will secure the £7m signing of Arsenal full-back Kieran Gibbs.

The Independent say Arsenal and Chelsea could yet make a bid for Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk.

Everton have rejected a £25m bid from Chelsea for Ross Barkley, according to The Times.
