United’s opening proposal was £28.3million, one that was considered a fair offer taking into account Ramos’ age, 29, and the fact the player has two years left on contract.

Madrid rejected that bid and Ramos is now on holiday in the USA. He has held talks with Florentino Perez and told the club president that he was unhappy and there is concern he has the personality to see out his threats and push for the move to Old Trafford.

ADAM SHERGOLD: Given the flurry of deals already done and the constant grinding of the rumour mill, it will come as a surprise to many that the transfer window isn’t even open yet.

The official start to the summer’s wheeling and dealing is at 12am on Wednesday (July 1), meaning all the paperwork can then be properly completed and submitted to the authorities.

The window will remain open until the earlier time of 6pm on Tuesday September 1 when it will ‘slam shut’ amid the hurly-burly of deadline day.

This hasn’t stopped the Premier League’s leading lights trying to gain a head-start in the negotiations however.

And so, as we approach the start of the transfer window, we take a look at the deals already done, those in progress and the others likely to happen for the big six clubs.

OLIVER TODD: Vitesse head coach Peter Bosz has admitted he wanted to get Ruben Loftus-Cheek to move to Holland on loan, but that his growing first-team influence at Chelsea has made a move ‘impossible’.

JONNY SINGER: In Italy the focus is on Juventus, with Corriere dello Sport claiming the Old Lady need Chelsea’s Oscar to save them after the departures of Carlos Tevez and Andrea Pirlo.

JONNY SINGER: Elsewhere in Spain, Barcelona’s pursuit of Paul Pogba continues to dominate the headlines,with Mundo Deportivo and Sport variously reporting bids of €80m (£57m) and €90m (£64m) for the Juventus midfielder.

The paper also links Juve to Real Madrid’s Isco, while Arsenal are apparently preparing a bid for Arturo Vidal as the exodus from Turin continues.

JONNY SINGER: Iker Casillas’ time at Real Madrid could be at an end when Manchester United keeper David de Gea arrives at the Bernabeu, according to reports in Spain.

For the last few seasons Casillas and another keeper have been able to survive in tandem, with Casillas playing in the Champions League in 2013-14 and La Liga last season, while Diego Lopez and then Kelyor Navas held down the spot in the other competition.

But new manager Rafa Benitez will pick one first-choice goalkeeper and stick with him for all competitions, according to Spanish paper Marca.

That means if Real, as expected, sign De Gea this summer, Casillas will be allowed to leave, with another Madrid-based paper, AS, claiming Roma is his destination.
