Football transfer news: Arsenal bids rejected and West Ham eyes Jamie Vardy

Several major football transfer developments are unfolding as clubs prepare for upcoming seasons. Arsenal has reportedly faced two significant outcomes: the club's €80 million bid for Atlético de Madrid defender Marc Pubill was rejected by the Spanish side, which considers the 23-year-old intransferable. Additionally, Galatasaray submitted a €45 million offer for Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli, but the Brazilian international has reportedly expressed no interest in moving to Turkey.

In England, West Ham United is exploring options to bolster its attack following its relegation to the Championship. The club has shown interest in 39-year-old free agent Jamie Vardy. After a season with Cremonese in Italy, Vardy is available to negotiate without a transfer fee, making him an attractive experienced option for West Ham's promotion campaign.
