      Gray is seen as an alternative to Blackburn’s Adam Wharton, 19, who may be too pricey for Palace.
      Leeds may have to cash in on Gray if they do not win promotion and Palace plan to swoop first.
      Everton are also tracking Wharton in case they come into money. Toffees tried swap deals in summer but will need cash to make Rovers sell.
      Gray has made eight appearances for Leeds this season in the Championship.

      Manager Daniel Farke has hailed Gray’s progress this season and previously picked him out for praise for his performance against Millwall.
      He said: “There is no guarantee but he has fulfilled all my expectations during the season so far.
      “Obviously, it was a big challenge, the big ask for a 17-year-old guy because I know how impressive The Den can be but I have to say how he handled it was top class.”
      Palace are in need of some more creativity in the team having been unable to break down Fulham in their goalless draw.

      Young is tipped to follow ex-Cats Jordan Pickford and Anthony Patterson to the top — and City plan to snap him up before any rivals make their move.
      Local lad Young — who has been at the Wearsiders since he was seven — is the latest discovery by Sunderland’s goalkeeping guru Mark Prudhoe, who is known for identifying and developing talent.
      Mowbray praised the stopper when he started for the first team in a pre-season game and his reputation is growing fast.
      Sunderland tied down Young to a two-year deal recently but he is already with a leading agency and the club may cash in on him.

      The Black Cats released another keeper ‘find’, Toby Bell — who is even younger than Young — to Chelsea this summer.
      City also fancied Bell, 15, but their focus now is the latest Sunderland whizkid.
      SunSport also revealed how the Premier League champions are competing with Brighton to sign Argentinian left-back Valentin Barco.
      The Seagulls tried to sign Barco, 19, from Boca Juniors this summer and went close to triggering his release clause of around £10million.

      However, Manchester City and Juventus were also strongly linked and the whole deal became too hard to broker.
      But progressive Brighton still think they can offer Barco the best move at this point of his career.
      Boss Roberto de Zerbi remains optimistic a deal can be struck however, the club may have to pay more for him than expected.

      However, Klopp was their first choice for the dugout and were even willing to let him continue at Liverpool until June when he would take on the new role full-time.
      According to The Telegraph, the German tactician was approached earlier this month to lead his national team ahead of the Euros which take place in his home country this June.
      But the 56-year-old ruled himself out of the race as he remains committed to the Reds.

      Everton hope to renegotiate Dele Alli transfer deal with Tottenham with brave star working towards return

      by

      EVERTON will attempt to renegotiate the deal with Tottenham that brought Dele Alli to the club, says boss Sean Dyche.American firm 777 Partners are currently trying to take over the Toffees, who are enduring difficult times on and off the pitch.

      Everton are yet to win in the Premier League this term while the financial situation at the club has left Dyche with a threadbare squad to choose from.
      The potential return of England international Alli, 27, would no doubt provide a boost to the Blues’ attack after his recent struggles.
      However, Dyche has admitted that director of football Kevin Thelwell will probably have to speak with Spurs to try and adjust the terms of the package that brought him to Goodison in January 2022 before he plays again.
      Alli, who bravely opened up about being sexually abused as a child and his sleeping pill addiction this summer, has only made 13 appearances for Everton.
      READ MORE DELE ALLI
      The Merseysiders will have to pay Spurs £10million once he plays 20 times – which could cause issues with money tight until the potential takeover is completed.
      Alli recently suffered a setback in his attempted comeback from a groin operation when a stitch broke open in training seven weeks ago.
      And offering an update on the whole situation, Dyche said the Everton chief will attempt to thrash things out with Spurs that will benefit everybody involved.
      Speaking ahead of today’s trip to Brentford, he said: “He is not ready yet, when he’s fit and well I am sure Kev will go to Tottenham and say: ‘Right, how can we make this work for everyone?’

      “It has never been at that stage so we have to wait for it.”
      On his injury, Dyche added: “He was training with us, warming up and doing the drills, and he strikes the ball and is knocked back to square one. It was a real blow to him.
      “He’d had an operation on his groin, they internally stitched it like an anchor inside his body, and one of them popped out having a shot and that was it.
      “It was incredibly frustrating because he was feeling great. He is still a bit away yet, nowhere near training with us but is beginning to work with the sports science people.”
      Alli checked himself into rehab after excessively drinking and consuming sleeping pills following his nightmare loan spell with Besiktas last season.
      The former Mk Dons ace, who scored 51 top-flight goals in 181 matches during his six-and-a-half years at Spurs, said: “Now is the right time for me to tell people what’s been going on.
      “It’s tough to talk about because it’s something I’ve hid for a long time. I’m scared to talk about it.
      “When I came back from Turkey, I found out I needed an operation. I was in a bad place mentally and I decided to go to a modern-day rehab facility for mental health.
      “They deal with addiction and trauma. I felt it was time for me.

      “You can’t be told to go there – you have to know and make the decision yourself or it’s not going to work.
