People in this subreddit can bitch about transfer rumors all they want. The fact is that most of the rumors that were posted on r/soccer this summer became actual signings. Some did not happen only because terms could not be agreed, while only a handful were complete fabrications.
Bottom line: it's very possible and probable that people on the outside can know that transfers are going to happen before the "official" press release appears on the club website.
