Here's a complete report of the latest transfer updates Making The Rounds:
Beşiktaş willing to sign Martial
Anthony Martial endured a “mixed” campaign under manager José Mourinho last term and has recently been linked with a move away from Old Trafford.
The France international is eager for a more first team playing team and it has been suggested the 21-year-old striker may be allowed to leave on loan this summer. French Ligue 1 club Olympique Lyon have earlier expressed an interest in Anthony Martial but now Beşiktaş are also keen too, according to Daily Star. Beşiktaş are monitoring Martial and are ready to “swoop” if he is given the green light to leave United this summer. The Turkish giants are confident they could sign the former Monaco man by offering him first team football and the chance to play in the Uefa Champions League this new season.

Diao wants to leave Lazio
Keita Balde Diao is currently refusing to sign a new contract despite holding discussions over fresh terms since January 2017.
SSS Lazio had hoped they'd eventually “convince” the Senegalese to stay, but interest from around Europe has turned his head. Lazio are now ready to cash in on the Senegal international this summer window, and they've set their asking price at $28.6million, according to the Sun. That news will certainly come as a “major boost” to Manchester United, Everton and Chelsea who've all expressed an interest in Diao.
Juventus set to bolster their squad
Juventus are looking to bolster their squad this summer after missing out on Champions League gliding having lost to Real Madrid in the finals. Juventus head coach Massimiliano Allegri has prioritized adding more “strength” to his midfield, and he's “pushing” for a new player to be brought in this summer.
And Allegri has told the Juve's board he wants either Chelsea's Nemanja Matic or Liverpool's Emre Can to be signed up before the summer transfer market is over, according to Metro Sport. Juventus plans for this new season is to retain the Italian Serie A title and possibly win the UEFA Champions League.
