Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer rumours, including Brandon Williams to Leeds United, Michail Antonio to Everton and Demarai Gray to Fulham.

Leeds United are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United defender Brandon Williams during this summer's transfer window.

The 22-year-old has been involved in Man United's preparations for the 2023-24 campaign, but he is likely to find it difficult to secure first-team action during the new season.

Williams recently hinted that he wants to stay at Old Trafford and battle for his spot, but according to The Independent, Leeds have identified him as a transfer target.

The report claims that a move to the Whites will largely depend on whether the Englishman is prepared to drop down a division.

The left-back, who has another year left to run on his contract at Elland Road, has made 51 first-team appearances for Man United, scoring once and providing three assists.

Meanwhile, according to Football Insider, West Ham United attacker Michail Antonio has emerged as a transfer target for Everton.

The Jamaica international has been strongly linked with a move to Saudi Arabia this summer, but a proposed switch to Al Ettifaq has allegedly broken down.

Everton have previously been credited with an interest in the 33-year-old, and the Toffees are now believed to be planning to reignite their interest during the summer window.

Wolverhampton Wanderers and Nottingham Forest are also being linked with Antonio, although an exit for the forward will depend on whether West Ham sign another attacker this summer.

Antonio has scored 75 goals in 276 appearances for the Hammers in all competitions, including 61 goals in England's top flight during a successful period.

Staying with Everton, Demarai Gray could reportedly be on his way out of the club to join Fulham.

The attacker has been strongly linked with a move away from Goodison Park this summer, with Crystal Palace and Besiktas said to be interested in his services, in addition to teams from the Saudi Pro League.

However, according to Sky Sports News, Fulham have come to a verbal agreement with Sean Dyche's side over a deal for the 27-year-old.

The report claims that personal terms will not be an issue, although Gray will not be allowed to officially join Marco Silva's side until Everton have signed a replacement.

Gray has scored 12 goals in 75 appearances for the Toffees since arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in 2021.

Elsewhere, Real Sociedad are said to be closing in on a deal for RB Leipzig striker Andre Silva.

The 27-year-old has scored 26 goals in 95 appearances for Leipzig since making the move to the club from fellow Bundesliga outfit Eintracht Frankfurt in 2021.

There has been speculation surrounding the Portugal international's future this summer, though, with a number of teams believed to be interested in his services.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Real Sociedad are leading the race for his signature, and a move could be completed 'very soon', with all parties keen on the deal.
