With only Champions League finals remaining, the transfer talks of players, scheduled for the 2017 summer transfer window, have already begun.

The transfer window will open on July 1, and will go on till 11 PM on August 31.

Let us have a look at some of the transfers which are almost confirmed to take place in this two month period.

French footballer Antoine Griezmann has reportedly asked Atletico Madrid to let him exit, after Manchester United showed much interest in him.

18-year old Kylian Mbappe is strongly being chased by Manchester City and might leave Monaco.

In a bid to have a backup for Thibaut Courtois, Chelsea are allegedly in talks with Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Alphonse Areola and will mostly seal the deal.

Real Madrid defender Pepe has confirmed that he is leaving the Spanish club.

He said that he would have stayed if he was offered a two-year deal with Madrid. However, the club is interested in signing him for just an year.

Pepe, who joined the club in 2007, is supposedly signing a deal with Paris Saint-Germain.

After missing the Champions League finals, it is being reported that James Rodriguez is set to leave Real Madrid for Manchester United.

ManU are close to bring the star to the Premier League for an amount of £60 million.

However, if reports are to be believed, Italian club Inter Milan have also shown interest in the 25-year old Colombian.

Barcelona's new manager Ernesto Valverde is keen on bringing Paris Saint-Germain's Angel Di Maria back to Spain. Valverde wants Maria as Arda Turan's replacement, who is most likely closing a deal with Arsenal.

Maria was previously a part of Real Madrid, before moving on to Manchester United and then Paris.

It has also been reported that Messi suggested that Maria should come to Barcelona.
