THE INSIDER: Wright-Phillips' hopes rest on Chelsea loan compromise... Boro's Boateng returns to Mac... Friedel for City... Plus the rest of the gossip

Don't miss your daily instalment of The Insider every weekday throughout the summer transfer window on these pages.

(INSIDER'S RATING: 0/5 means this deal's pie in the sky. 5/5 and it's a done deal)

Wright-Phillips

Shaun Wright-Phillips, Chelsea to Portsmouth
- The Insider says: 3/5

Manager Harry Redknapp would love to have the winger with him on the south coast but Pompey will struggle to meet Chelsea's £10million valuation. Portsmouth would be much more likely to be able to put together a loan deal for the former Manchester City star and the player's desire to secure a regular starting place could play into Redknapp's hands.

Kewell

Harry Kewell, Liverpool to Galatasaray - Insider says: 3/5

Contrary to many reports the Australian's move to Turkey is not a done deal. Kewell is still to make up his mind, despite Galatasaray's claims. Portsmouth, Roma and Celtic are all interested in his services. Expect the former Leeds winger to make up his mind by Sunday - but he should be warned that a move to Turkey would see his popularity sink even further in Yorkshire.

Boateng

George Boateng, Middlesbrough to FC Twente - Inside says: 4/5

The veteran Boro midfielder is wrestling with the option of being reunited with former boss Steve McClaren in Holland and embarking on one more Premier League relegation scrap - with Hull or Stoke. Twente need a replacement for Orlando Engelaar, who has signed for Schalke, and the lure of Champions League football with McClaren is sure to see Boateng cross the Channel on a free transfer.

Buckley

Delron Buckley, Borussia Dortmund to Hull - Insider says 4/5

The South African has impressed on a trial in East Yorkshire and the former Everton trialist will complete a £400,000 move by the end of next week despite interest from abroad in the shape of Spanish club Espanyol.

Friedel

Brad Friedel, Blackburn to Manchester City - Inside says: 2/5

This deal is still to develop and new City boss Mark Hughes is wary of damaging his good relations with his former club. He also wishes to be careful not to disrupt the confidence of City's prodigal goalkeeper Joe Hart. Having said all that, don't rule out a £2million move from City as the American has only one year left on his Rovers contract.

Hunt

Stephen Hunt, Reading to Sunderland - Insider says: 4/5

Black Cats boss Roy Keane is lining up a £4million move for the Republic of Ireland midfielder. The former United star is waiting to see if he can bag another player - Dave Kitson or Kevin Doyle - as part of the deal. But the Championship club will struggle to hold on to their former Premier League stars. This move will happen.

Garner

Joe Garner, Carlisle to Nottingham Forest - Insider says: 4/5

Carlisle are reluctant sellars but it's a step up for the player and Forest are prepared to pay £1million despite Garner still being injured.

INSIDER'S OFFERING: Santiago Solari of Inter Milan - the Argentine has good pedigree and is being offered on a free transfer - but his wages demands are bank busting.
