Transfer News From The Premier League.
As today is devoid of Euro 2012 matches, it seems an opportune moment to catch up with what transfers have been happening with the Premier League clubs.
Arsenal
Manuel Almunia has been released, but has yet to find another club, although rumour has it he has been connected with Fiorentina.
Lukas Podolski, who scored in Germany's game against Denmark has been signed from Cologne.
There is a suggestion that the club will accept offers for Robin van Persie of around £30m.
Aston Villa
Carlos Cuellar, Emile Heskey and Brad Guzan have been released, and Brett Holman will arrive from AZ Alkmaar on a free transfer.
Chelsea
Chelsea welcome Eden Hazard from Lille and Marko Marin from Werder Bremen. Didier Drogba has left for China.
Everton
James McFadden and Marcus Hahnemann have been released. There are no signings as of now, but David Moyes is rumoured to be on his way to Tottenham Hotspur. These rumours are, as always, hotly denied.
Fulham
Andy Johnson has signed for local rivals, QPR. The club are also linked with Andrei Arshavin.
