LEX-ING MUSCLES
Manchester United are willing to sell left-back Alex Telles to fund a move for Atletico Madrid ace Kieran Trippier.
United are already thought to have had a £10million offer for Tripper rejected by Atletico.
Thus, the Red Devils are looking to raise some funds for the England international.
According to Sky Sports, that could see Telles leaving Old Trafford in the summer transfer window after failing to impress last season
ENGLAND THROUGH
England have been confirmed as qualifying to Euro 2020’s Round of 16, with a game to spare.
Results on Sunday and Monday evening, with each group playing out their final fixture, mean that a tally of four points is now definitely enough for any nation to progress to the knockout phase.
Therefore, the Three Lions’ win against Croatia and draw with Scotland are enough for Gareth Southgate’s men to advance no matter what happens with the Czech Republic on Tuesday.
The two teams are going to square off at Wembley Stadium tomorrow
TO BE FRANCK
AC Milan ace Franck Kessie is the latest name to be linked with Arsenal, who are looking to sign a midfielder in the summer transfer window.
According to Gazzetta Dello Sport, the Gunners are leading the race to sign Kessie, who has only 12 months remaining on his contract at Milan.
In fact, the Rossoneri could be forced to sell the Ivory international if he does not agree to sign a new deal.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is looking for a midfielder to partner up with Thomas Partey at the back
PAU-ERFUL MOVE
Manchester United are confident they can sign Villarreal star Pau Torres in the summer transfer window.

In fact, United have made plenty of progress in their bid to sign the 24-year-old defender.
The Red Devils are determined to sign a top centre-back that will partner up with Harry Maguire at the back
MORE ON VARANE
Real Madrid ace Raphael Varane has one year left on his contract with Los Blancos.
According to FootMercato, however, Varane is unhappy Real chose to negotiate extensions with Luka Modric, Lucas Vasquez and Sergio Ramos before him.
Thus, Paris Saint-Germain are said to have made contact with the centre-back’s agents.
The French giants also got in touch with Real’s hierarchy and were reportedly encouraged after hearing talks had stalled.
But the France international wants to move to England instead in a major boost to Manchester United, according to the Daily Mirror

SANCHO UPDATE
Manchester United have made an improved bid for Borussia Dortmund ace Jadon Sancho.
That is according to Sky Sports, who report United have offered Dortmund more than £75million.
The proposed bid would see the Red Devils paying more up front with the rest in achievable add-ons for the star winger.
The Manchester giants’ initial bid was believed to be £67m up front plus around £8m in add-ons.
Dortmund are thought to be considering United’s offer, even though they rate the England international in excess of £80m
MOUNT AND CHILWELL ISOLATING
England international Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell are doubts for Tuesday’s crucial Euro 2020 clash against the Czech Republic.
According to Sky Sports, Mount and Chilwell have gone into self-isolation as a precaution following their interaction with Scotland ace Billy Gilmour, who has tested positive for coronavirus.
The Three Lions duo embraced and spoke to their Chelsea team-mate Gilmour following Friday’s goalless draw at Wembley.
The Blues stars – along with the rest of Gareth Southgate’s squad – have returned negative COVID-19 tests, but it remains unclear whether the duo will be available to play against the Czechs

EURO STARS
