It’s that time of the year again – the transfer window is now open until September 1 and it’s sure to be a busy period with clubs looking to make big signings ahead of next season.

Here are today’s latest developments from Simon Jones and the Daily Mail Sport team… 

Wrexham in for Palace’s Imray – but face competition

Wrexham have joined the clubs showing interest in Crystal Palace full-back Danny Imray.

The 22-year-old, who had loan spells with Blackpool and West Bromwich Albion last season, is wanted back by Albion while Stoke City have also posted interest.

Wrexham, though, are continuing to push the bar on their targets as they try to take that next step up into the Premier League.

They also remain in the chase for Leicester City’s Harry Souttar. The Australia international has asked to leave but the Foxes want £10million which is deterring suitors such as Sheffield United, Stoke City and more.

Leicester in race against time for No 9 

Leicester City are clear favourites to gain promotion from League One but are still to sign a striker – with barely three weeks to go until they kick-off the season against Notts County.

Manager Russell Martin may have overseen a 3-3 draw against La Liga side Malaga in Marbella on Saturday but that didn’t mask what he thought the former Premier League champions were missing.

‘The topline, both wide positions and a No 9, I think it’s really clear,’ said the Foxes’ boss when asked about priorities.

They have tried and failed to agree terms with former West Ham striker Danny Ings and, despite his appearance at first-team testing, Jamie Vardy is not planning a return. He still has aspirations to finish at the top.
