Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in La Liga on Sunday, July 26.

Sunday morning's La Liga transfer talk news roundup:


Kepa Arrizabalaga willing to take pay cut to seal Chelsea exit?

Kepa Arrizabalaga is willing to accept a pay cut if it helps to seal a move away from Chelsea this summer, according to a report.

Chelsea have been tipped to bring in a new first-choice goalkeeper ahead of next season due to concerns over the Spaniard, who cost the club a record £71.6m to sign two years ago.

Kepa conceded five more goals in the 5-3 loss to Liverpool in midweek and has supposedly now accepted that his future lies away from Stamford Bridge.

The Sun claims that the 25-year-old is even prepared to accept a drop in wages on his current £150,000-a-week deal, which still has four years left to run.

Valencia are said to be one of a handful of teams keeping tabs on Kepa's situation, while fellow La Liga club Sevilla may also be interested.

Barcelona's Marc Andre-ter Stegen and Atletico Madrid stopper Jan Oblak have been touted as possible replacements for Kepa.



Barcelona 'will listen to Antoine Griezmann offers'

Barcelona are reportedly prepared to listen to offers for Antoine Griezmann during this summer's transfer window.

Griezmann only joined Barca from Atletico Madrid last July, but the France international has struggled to show his best form for the club, managing just 15 goals and four assists in 46 appearances in all competitions.

The 29-year-old has a contract at Camp Nou until June 2024, but according to Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan giants are willing to listen to offers for the 2018 World Cup winner ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

Manchester United and Arsenal have previously been credited with an interest in the attacker, who struck nine times in 35 La Liga appearances for Barca during the recent season.

Griezmann missed his side's last two league games of the 2019-20 campaign with a muscular problem and is battling to prove his fitness ahead of the Champions League clash with Napoli on August 8.

As well as the Frenchman, Barca have allegedly placed 12 players on the transfer list this summer as they look to raise the funds needed to sign Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.
