Monday's Premier League transfer talk news roundup: Odsonne Edouard, Dayot Upamecano, Sergio Ramos

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for the Premier League on Monday, February 15.

Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in the Premier League on Monday, February 15.

Monday morning's Premier League transfer talk news roundup:


Arsenal 'quoted £15m for Celtic's Odsonne Edouard'

Arsenal could reportedly land Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard for a reasonable figure of £15m in the summer transfer window.

The 23-year-old has less than 18 months left to run on his existing deal with the Scottish champions, and Celtic could look to recoup a fee for him this year rather than risk losing him for nothing in 2022.

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Edouard since last summer and are expected to step up their pursuit this time around, with the futures of Alexandre Lacazette, Eddie Nketiah and Folarin Balogun all uncertain.

According to The Express, Celtic may be willing to accept a figure of £15m due to Edouard's contract situation, and a new forward is a priority for Mikel Arteta ahead of the 2021-22 campaign.

The former Paris Saint-Germain youngster has already scored 19 goals in all competitions this season, and a brace against St Johnstone - which led Neil Lennon to claim that he is back to his best - marked his eighth goal in six league matches.

West Ham United have also been credited with an interest in the France Under-21s international.



Real Madrid to lose Sergio Ramos if Gareth Bale returns?

Real Madrid are reportedly facing the possibility of losing Sergio Ramos on a free transfer this summer in order to pay the remaining year of Gareth Bale's salary.

The Spanish club's finances have been hit hard by the coronavirus outbreak, and it is understood that club captain Ramos has rejected two separate offers from Los Blancos as he is not prepared to accept a pay cut.

According to AS, the financial issues caused by the ongoing pandemic mean that Zinedine Zidane's side cannot afford to meet Ramos's salary demands, and Bale's lucrative contract at the Bernabeu, which runs until June 2022, means that the club might not be able to retain their captain.

Bale is currently on loan with Tottenham Hotspur, but the Wales international has struggled to make his mark on his return to the Premier League and appears certain to head back to Madrid this summer.

The report notes that the 31-year-old and Ramos are the two highest earners at the Bernabeu in terms of wages, and the former is allegedly not prepared to accept a reduction to move elsewhere.

Ramos is allegedly being monitored by a number of clubs ahead of a potential free transfer.
