Transfer news: The latest rumours from Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and all the top teams
ATLETICO MAKE OZIL CONTACT
Atletico Madrid have contacted Arsenal attacker Mesut Ozil over a possible summer move, according to The Sun.
The Germany international will be out of contract at the end of the season, allowing him to potentially sign a pre-contract with a new club in January. Atletico are willing to offer Ozil a salary of £200,000-a-week and a significant signing-on fee, though that falls short of the £330,000-a-week number his representatives have requested from Arsenal.
Ozil could be tempted by a return to Madrid, however, after enjoying success at Santiago Bernabeu from 2010 to 2013.
TOTTENHAM TURN TO RICHARLISON
Tottenham are considering a move for Watford forward Richarlison, according to the Daily Mirror.
The 20-year-old has impressed for the Hornets since arriving in the summer, and Spurs are now monitoring his progress as they look to bolster their attacking options.
ARSENAL CLOSE IN ON FEKIR
Arsenal are closing in on a £60 million move for Lyon forward Nabil Fekir, according to the Daily Star.
The Gunners have been in talks with the 24-year-old for some time, and are hopeful a deal can be tied up in January.
That would pave the way for both Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez to leave before their contracts run down in the summer.
MAN UTD WANT ATLETICO STAR
Manchester United want to sign Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez, who has a €150 million release clause in his contract, claims The Sun .
Jose Mourinho is looking to increase the creative options in his squad and fancies adding Saul to his ranks next summer.
Mourinho will also fend off Atletico’s interest in Ander Herrera, with United to trigger the 12-month option in the Spain midfielder’s contract.
WEST HAM TARGET LIVERPOOL STRIKER
New West Ham United boss David Moyes is lining up a January loan deal for Liverpool striker Danny Ings, according to The Sun .
Moyes is looking to improve his attacking options after replacing Slaven Bilic at the London Stadium and was previously interested in Ings when he was Real Sociedad coach.
Ings is working his way back to full fitness after a serious injury and Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is willing to let the forward go out on loan in the New Year.
NAPOLI BACK IN FOR BARCA ATTACKER
Napoli are ready to make a fresh move to sign Barcelona forward Denis Suarez when the transfer window reopens in January, reports Corriere dello Sport .
Suarez has struggled for regular first-team football this season and, having been a long-term target for Napoli, the Serie A side will try to finally sign the 23-year-old.
LIVERPOOL LINE UP WORLD CUP WINNER
Liverpool want to beat Arsenal and Tottenham to the signing of England Under 17 World Cup winner Morgan Gibbs-White, claims The Sun .
The midfielder has come through the ranks at Wolves and has already made his first-team debut, with Liverpool willing to pay £5 million for the 17-year-old.
MADRID TO SELL BALE
Real Madrid have decided to sell Gareth Bale next summer after losing patience with the Wales international’s fitness issues, according to AS .
Bale is facing a further month on the sidelines due to a groin injury and he has not featured for Madrid since September, prompting the club to cut their losses on their record signing.
Manchester United had been interested in signing Bale over the summer for a fee upwards of €120 million, but Madrid feel the 28-year-old will now only command a maximum price of €80m.
If Bale is sold, Madrid will try to sign a new Galactico, with their sights set on Kylian Mbappe, who is currently on a season-long loan at Paris Saint-Germain.
MAN UTD ON LINCOLN TRAIL
Manchester United have joined the race to sign Brazilian striking sensation Lincoln, claims Calcio Mercato .
Lincoln impressed at the recent Under-17 World Cup in India, and is already a target for Barcelona and Real Madrid.
United and Juventus are also monitoring the 17-year-old, although his club Flamengo will not sell for less than €30 million.
TORRES WANTS PREMIER LEAGUE RETURN
Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres wants to return to the Premier League on loan in the January transfer window, reports the Mirror .
Torres has struggled for first-team football this season and is keen to play more, with Newcastle and Southampton linked with an approach for the former Liverpool and Chelsea forward.
MADRID RIVAL MAN UTD FOR ROSE
Manchester United are set to face competition from the likes of Real Madrid for Tottenham defender Danny Rose, claims the Daily Mail .
Reports had previously suggested that Rose would prefer a move to Old Trafford after also being linked with a switch to Chelsea.
However, with the 27-year-old previously commenting he has ‘one big contract left in me’, the left-back is now being tracked by Madrid, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain.
DORTMUND JOIN CAN CHASE
Borussia Dortmund have joined the race to sign Liverpool midfielder Emre Can on a free transfer, reports Bild .
Can is out of contract at the end of the season and reports suggest it is likely the Germany international will leave Anfield.
Manchester City had emerged as favourites to sign Can, but now Dortmund are showing an interest in agreeing a deal.
REAL OFFER BALE & KROOS FOR NEYMAR
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is determined to sign Neymar from Paris Saint-Germain and will offer Toni Kroos and Gareth Bale as part of a swap deal, Don Balon reports.
The report states that any deal to land the Brazilian will exceed €400 million, and the Los Blancos supremo feels he can replace Kroos and Bale with relative ease as he looks to minimise costs.
At present, PSG are in no mood to sell, but Madrid will not give up their pursuit of Neymar and are hopeful they can bring him to the Santiago Bernabeu within the next two seasons
MADRID TARGET LYON STAR
Lyon attacker Nabil Fekir has emerged as the latest target for Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane, claims SFR Sport, via AS .
Fekir is enjoying an impressive campaign for Lyon and the 24-year-old, who can play as an attacking midfielder or striker, has been scouted by Barcelona.
Arsenal, Juventus and Manchester United are also reported to be interested in Fekir, and now Madrid are keeping a close eye on his form this season.
BARCA MIDFIELDER SET FOR NEW DEAL
Barcelona aim to hand Sergi Roberto a new five-year contract to ward off interest from Manchester City and Manchester United, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The Premier League duo have been linked with a move for Sergi Roberto, whose current deal expires in 2019.
However, Barca plan to extend his contract and increase his release clause from €40 million to €400m to ensure Sergi Roberto stays at Camp Nou.
GORETZKA WANTS PREMIER LEAGUE MOVE
Schalke midfielder Leon Goretzka wants to move to the Premier League when his contract expires next summer, according to Sport .
Germany’s national team general manager Oliver Bierhoff has suggested the money on offer in English football is a persuasive factor for the likes of Goretzka, who has been interesting Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
However, the 22-year-old will ignore interest from those clubs in order to head to the Premier League, with Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham all having been linked with an approach.
MAN UTD TO SELL SHAW FOR £20M
Manchester United are prepared to sell Luke Shaw for £20 million during the January transfer window, claims The Times .
Shaw has been linked with a loan move to Fenerbahce, but is not interested in a transfer to Turkey as United look set to cut their losses on the left-back, who has been unable to make an impression under Jose Mourinho.
CAN TO SNUB JUVE FOR CITY
Liverpool midfielder Emre Can is set to snub Juventus and join Manchester City at the end of the season, according to the Star on Sunday .
Germany international Can is out of contract in June, with Serie A champions Juve hopeful of agreeing a deal to sign him on a free during the second half of the campaign.
But they and Liverpool both now fear Can will join City after the Premier League leaders increased their interest.
BARCA TO RAISE UMTITI RELEASE CLAUSE TO €180M
Barcelona will start talks with reported Manchester United target Samuel Umtiti over a new contract at the beginning of 2018, reports Sport .
Umtiti’s current deal expires in 2021 and he earns €3 million per year, with the French defender’s release clause standing at €60m.
He is in line for a wage increase and extension, while Barca also want to raise his release clause to €180m to ward off Premier League interest in Umtiti.
