Gianluca di Marzio reports that newly-promoted to Serie A side Benevento have concluded an agreement with AS Monaco to sign 32-year-old Polish international and central defender Kamil Glik.

Glik has arrived in Italy today to undergo a medical ahead of signing a 3-year contract with Benevento.

Speaking to reporters outside Villa Stuart, Glik had the following to say: “I am very happy, I missed Italy.”

The deal is expected to earn Monaco €3.5m.

39-year-old goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes has announced on Instagram that he will be leaving Watford when his contract expires at the end of this month.

RMC Sport report that Ligue 1 side Lyon are in talks to sign 18-year-old right-winger Facundo Pellistri from Uruguayan side Peñarol.

The teenager has already played 25 matches this season and has a €9m release clause, which Lyon Sporting Director Juninho is trying to negotiate down. At the moment, the Peñarol board have no intention of budging on the release clause valuation.

Pellistri would not count as a non-EU player in Lyon’s squad if a deal is completed, as he has a Spanish passport.

ASYD: Lille President Gérard Lopez on Jonathan David:
"The player absolutely wants to play for Lille. He does not want to go to the other clubs... We might up our offer in the coming days."
