Leeds hope to sign Sean Longstaff after making a bid rising to £12m for the Newcastle United midfielder. The promoted club are willing to pay an initial £10m, plus a potential £2m in add-ons, for the 27-year-old.

Newcastle United have accepted an offer for Sean Longstaff from Leeds United as the midfielder closes in on a move to Elland Road. The 27-year-old Newcastle man and academy graduate has been subject to a series of offers from Leeds United, the third of which landed on Newcastle's desk this week.

It is believed that Rangers have commenced preliminary talks with free agent Jamie Vardy over a potential switch to Ibrox this summer. The 38-year-old ended his 13-year association with Leicester City in May, when the East Midlands side suffered relegation to the Championship.
