Newcastle are in talks to sign Benfica right back Amar Dedic.
But the Bosnian is set to feature for Benfica in tonight’s Europa League play-off against Hearts, head coach Marco Silva confirmed.

PSG chief Nasser Al-Khelaifi on Bradley Barcola's future
Paris Saint-Germain chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi was asked about the future of winger Bradley Barcola following last night’s Super Cup victory against Aston Villa.
Barcola is Liverpool’s big transfer target this summer but the Reds are so far refusing to match PSG’s enormous asking price of £140m for the winger.
"We're working calmly, we don't talk too much," Al-Khelaifi told Canal Plus. "I can't say whether he will leave or not. Today, he is a PSG player. We'll see."

Wharton to Old Trafford?
The Sun are suggesting that Manchester United are interested in signing Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton.
A fee of around £85m is being rumoured as the price to take the England international away from the Eagles.
That seems within budget for United and would be a satisfying transfer for the fans.
Can it happen though?

Lewis-Skelly likely to stay at Arsenal
A deal for Myles Lewis-Skelly to Chelsea is considered highly unlikely.
They [Chelsea] are generally happy with their squad, and will only now move in the event of "reactions" to the market. Hull City have some interest in Tosin Adarabioyo, but he wants to stay.
There is still some puzzlement within Arsenal as to how this has got about. Lewis-Skelly's camp have not been in touch.
There is long-standing interest from Manchester United but the Old Trafford hierarchy do not have the finances right now to even test Arsenal's willingness to keep their teenage star.

Barcelona yet to meet Rodri valuation as Man City left baffled by approach
Barcelona are set to make a third bid of around £60m for Rodri but are still set to fall £10m short of Manchester City’s valuation of the Ballon d’Or winner.
The deal could also influence the speed of any move for Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez, with Enzo Maresca pushing for the midfielder's signature.
City are willing to allow a long-serving club legend like Rodri to fulfil a personal aspiration of playing in Spain again after this summer’s World Cup win.

Arsenal rekindle interest in Aston Villa's Ezri Konsa?
Arsenal were initially linked with a centre-back last month following William Saliba’s injury, with Aston Villa centre-back Ezri Konsa one of two players mentioned along with free agent John Stones.
Stones then signed for Inter Milan, with interest in Konsa cooling while Arsenal were then briefly linked in a shock move for Tottenham captain Cristian Romero. Spurs and Atletico Madrid have since agreed a fee for the centre-back.
So will Arsenal turn their attention back to Konsa? The BBC have reported that Arsenal are set to reignite their interest in the England international Konsa, who missed last night’s Super Cup defeat to PSG as he is yet to return from the World Cup.
