Outside90 brings you the latest EPL transfer news and rumours from around the world wide web.

Middlesbrough have confirmed yet another summer signing, with defender Antonio Barragan joining from Valencia. The 29-year-old arrives at Rockliffe on a three-year deal and it will be his second club in England after featuring for Liverpool as an 18-year-old.

In what could be more bad news for Premier League champions Leicester City, star winger Riyad Mahrez has rejected a new contract according to the Guardian. The PFA Player of the Year is said to want a new challenge away from the Foxes, having enjoyed a breakout campaign last season which has seen him on the radar of a number of top European clubs.

Staying with Leicester City, after finding first team football difficult last season, left-back Jeffrey Schlupp could reportedly be offered a way out to West Brom. The Telegraph is reporting a £9 million offer is in the works for the Foxes Player of the Season in 2014-15.

Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure is set to remain at the Emirates this summer, with Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini suggesting there is no chance of Toure joining his side. The claims come from the Manchester Evening News, with it growing increasingly likely the 33-year-old will be at a Sky Blue beyond this summer.

After strong performances for Wales at the Euros, midfielder Joe Allen has drawn plenty of attention with claims he will be allowed to leave Liverpool this window. Sky Sports suggests former club Swansea have indicated they are interested in bringing the 26-year-old back to the club, after failing to establish himself as a first team regular at Anfield.

With Arsenal in the market for a striker this summer, the Express are linking the Gunners with a last ditch bid for West Ham target Carlos Bacca. The Gunners are desperate to add another striker to their squad, with concerns over Oliver Giroud and Danny Welbeck’s ability to score 20+ goals for the season.

In yet another rumour for Everton, the club is being linked with a move for French forward Sebastien Haller of FC Utrecht. The Daily Star are reporting the news via France Football, with the Merseyside outfit reportedly in a strong position to beat the likes of Swansea and Tottenham to the 22-year-old.

A Premier League tug-of-war could be set to secure the services of Slovakian youngster Ondrej Duda, according to the Express. Rumours are that Arsenal, Manchester United and West Ham are all keen on bringing the youngster to their respective clubs this summer, after strong performances at the recent European Championships.
