Eddie Howe’s side are set to spend big over the next few months but appear to have cooled their interest in a Watford striker, opening the door for Everton and Crystal Palace to make a move.
Meanwhile, the Magpies are also reportedly interested in making a move for a Leeds United winger.
Speaking of Leeds, they are also expected to have a busy summer but their first priority might be keeping a hold of their current stars with Barcelona monitoring one of their fan favourites and the player, valued at £30m, reportedly wanting to play for the Spanish side.
As fot Everton, they could now be facing competition in their attempts to sign a Burnley defender who is about to become a free agent.
Elsewhere, Chelsea have identified a number of summer targets to solve their defensive problems while Arsenal are monitoring several strikers.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa are reportedly set to “reignite” their interest in a £30m valued Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder while West Ham are lining up a move for a Nottingham Forest defender if the Championship side fail to gain promotion in Sunday’s play-off final.
Finally, A Manchester United loanee will be returning to Old Trafford and not making a permanent switch to the club he spent the second half of last season at.
