There's no new Kaka news to report on, and there shouldn't be for another couple of days, but that doesn't mean that there's nothing else going on in the world of transfers.

Who's in the transfer news headlines today? As always, the lion's share of the tidbits are from England, but we've also got news and rumors to report on from Spain, Italy, Germany, and Greece.

We're into a new week, and this is a week that could get off to a big bang in the transfers world. AC Milan star Kaka could very well make the switch to Real Madrid in the coming days, and a few other top European clubs could nail down a few new squad additions sometime this week as well.

The transfer news and rumors aren't as plentiful tonight as they were in the morning, but sometimes, it's about quality, not quantity, and in tonight's roundup, we've got a couple of big-money (well, small, if you're Real Madrid) signings to report and add to our summer transfer lists.

The headline takes away the element of surprise, of course, but those moves aren't the only bits in the news.

Saturday may have been a holiday for me in the U.S., but no matter what day it is, I've got an attentive eye on the latest in transfer news and rumors.

Ahmed already covered the latest news on the Felipe Melo to Arsenal front, and in this morning's roundup, I have several more tidbits from Saturday and early today to tide you over until next time, including another potential swap deal involving Arsenal and a top Serie A club.

Pictures have been leaked of the new away kit for newly promoted Birmingham City.

Designed and manufactured by Umbro, and sponsored by F&C Investments, the new Birmingham City away kit will be released this summer for the 2009-10 season.

Just like many Premier League clubs next season, Birmingham City has decided to choose a black away kit.

The biggest news in the football world is still the impending sale of Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid for a world-record £80m.

However, in this morning's transfer roundup, you won't find any Ronaldo-related news, though there is a mention of someone that Manchester United could go after with the money they're set to soon receive from Real.

Just as quickly as the week started, Wednesday's already here, and there's plenty of transfer news and rumors to report on, including the latest on Andrei Arshavin's potential move to Arsenal. England It seems to be only a matter of time before the Arsh joins the Arse. Zenit St. Petersburg are confident about the [.

You knew it was only a matter of time before it would happen, even with the world's current economical state. Real Madrid have broken the world transfer record that they already held by landing Kaka from AC Milan for £59m.

That signing looks to be only the start of Real's monster summer spending spree, and if they can land one of their prime targets (you should already know who I'm talking about without me having to mention him by name), we could see the above record broken once again before the end of the summer.

It's a new week, and we've got a fresh batch of transfer news and rumors from around Europe. We've got tidbits from England, Italy, and Germany in today's roundup, with names big, medium, and small all being linked with moves from here to there.

In a tribute to the Clint Eastwood movie, "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly," EPL Talk has categorized the new shirts for the 2009-2010 season into three categories. It wasn't easy.

It looked like it was going to be easy breezy for Emmanuel Adebayor's move from Arsenal to Manchester City, but alas, a smooth, quick resolution does not appear to be in the offing, for one reason or another.

It might take a little longer than expected to add him to our summer transfer lists, but it does look like another transfer gossip favorite will be on the move soon, with Stewart Downing finally set to end his time at Middlesbrough in favor of a quick return to the Premier League and a taste of Europe.

William Gallas joined us as part of the Ashley Cole transfer. Nobody knows whether Gallas really want to join Arsenal or if he wanted to move abroad.

Did you know that a player's teeth could cause a transfer to collapse? I didn't, but apparently that's the case with potential AC Milan signing Aly Cissokho, who could be set to remain with Porto after a problem with his teeth came up in his medical.

If that happens, that'll be one name to subtract from our confirmed summer transfers lists, but if things go according to today's transfer news and rumors, we could have several names to add over the next few days.

The new Man City 2009-10 Premiership home kit has officially been released, and it looks quite similar to the images that were leaked on the internet.

Every time the transfer window opens, the rumors and guessing games involving Gooch's future reach new levels of the ridiculous. With longtime interest from France and England, it now seems odd that the one club making the most public pronouncements is Birmingham City (while Turkish side Fenerbahce is also in the mix).

If there is one team that is secretly thriving in a summer of high-profile transfers, it is Birmingham City. As mentioned by my fellow Premiership Talk writer, Brian Lofrumento, the newly promoted outfit is reportedly pursuing former Arsenal captain Patrick Viera, which is in addition to a handful of other acquisitions made recently.

According to EPL Talk.com, ESPN has acquired the TV rights to two of the weekly Premier League slots on US television for the 2009-2010 season. With FSC now having Champions League soccer and ESPN Prem games, it seems that soccer on TV in the US has been turned on it's head. Beginning on August 15, 2009, each week ESPN will feature the 6:45am CT Saturday game and the 2pm CT Monday game.

Not as easy a game as many would have you believe.

The two protagonists of the last meeting between these clubs Arsenal's Eduardo and Birmingham defender Martin Taylor both miss out through injury.

It's that time of year again - the worst fashion show of the year. Well, almost. The Premier League clubs are almost all kitted out for the new season, with only a handful of notable exceptions. A couple of clubs are staying as they were this season and Portsmouth will be keeping their fingers crossed that they don't sell out of replica shirts after the closure of Canterbury Clothing Company, but the overwhelming majority of clubs have not been able to resist the temptation of all that lovely lucre and gone for it for the 2009/10 season.
