    With the Gunners in the market for another winger, the Ivory Coast international will fall further down the pecking order.
    SunSport recently stated how the North London outfit fear being stuck with the 27-year-old having had zero interest in the forward.
    And according to PA, Pepe’s £140,000-a-week salary is proving to be a sticking point for potential suitors.
    Arsenal are also claimed to be asking for too much money for the 2020 FA Cup winner.

    Reporter Mark Mann-Bryans tweeted: “Arsenal are now openly seeking suitors for club-record signing Nicolas Pepe.
    “Given valuation/wages, a loan move away from the club is the most likely outcome.

    Arsenal enquire over Benfica left-back Alex Grimaldo in £7m transfer after losing out to Brentford for Aaron Hickey

    ARSENAL have reportedly contacted Benfica over a possible deal for Alex Grimaldo having missed out on the signing of Aaron Hickey.Mikel Arteta is keen for a left-back to deputise for Kieran Tierney with Nuno Tavares guilty of inconsistent performances following his arrival last year.

    The Gunners boss is willing to allow the Portugal youth international to depart on loan to gain valuable first team experience.
    And Arteta is desperate to provide adequate back-up for Scottish star Tierney, where he had identified the defender’s compatriot Hickey as a possibility.
    But the Bologna starlet, 20, is understood to be closing in on a switch to Brentford in a £14million move.
    And Arsenal will not press on with other targets, with Spanish star Grimaldo said to be an option.

dealt Aaron Hickey transfer BLOW, Jesus SPOTTED wearing No 9 shirt
    According to Record, the North London outfit have made an enquiry to Benfica over the availability of Grimaldo.
    It has been claimed that, along with contacting the Primeira Liga side, they have also been in touch with the player’s representatives.
    And Arsenal could land the ex-Barcelona academy ace in a cut-price deal with his contract at the Estadio da Luz to expire in 2023.
    Benfica would reportedly be open to parting ways with Grimaldo should they receive between £6m-£7m.

    Chelsea closing in on £45m Sterling transfer, Blues favourite to land De Ligt, Kimpembe latest, Ziyech to AC Milan

    CHELSEA are closing in on a £45million deal for Man City forward Raheem Sterling, according to reports.Meanwhile, battle for Raphinha is far from over as Barcelona are said to have put in a staggering £60 million bid – matching Chelsea’s offer.
    And Chelsea are in need of some defensive reinforcements with Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen departing from Stamford Bridge.
    The Blues are reportedly interested in Juventus star Matthijs de Ligt but the Old Lady have demanded for Timo Werner in return.
    But reports suggest that Chelsea are also chasing Paris Saint-Germain defender Presnel Kimpembe.

    IN: None
    OUT: Antonio Rudiger (Real Madrid), Andreas Christensen (Barcelona), Danny Drinkwater (released), Charly Musonda (released), Jake Clarke-Salter (released), Lucas Bergstrom (Peterborough, loan), Sam McClelland (Barrow, loan)

    Ron his way
    Chelsea are at the front of the queue to offer Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo Champions League football.
    Ronaldo sensationally informed United he wants to quit the club this summer.
    The Red Devils are determined to stand firm and refuse to sell but the five-time Ballon d’Or winners insists they should give the green light to any acceptable bids.
    And that could see the star forward join the Blues, who finished third last season – and therefore have a seat at Europe’s top competition.
    Manager Thomas Tuchel is on the hunt for a new striker following Romelu Lukaku’s season-long loan to Inter Milan.
    That leaves Timo Werner and Kai Havertz as the only players who can really play up front this coming season
    Ziyech agrees AC Milan move
    Chelsea ace Hakim Ziyech has agreed to join AC Milan, according to Calciomercato.
    Ziyech is set to move to Milan on a season-long loan deal, which will include an obligation to buy.
    The fee to make the winger’s move permanent will reportedly be set at £21million though the Blues are seeking a further £4m.
    That will mark another notable departure from the West Londoners’ frontline after Romelu Lukaku, who also moved on loan in the Serie A as he returned to Inter Milan

    Kimpembe interest latest
    Chelsea are targeting Paris Saint-Germain star Presnel Kimpembe this summer.
    The Blues were considering a move for PSG’s £34million-rated Kimpembe in the past two transfer windows.
    According to Goal, that “interest from Chelsea still exists” over the centre-back.
    It seems the West Londoners are keen again after seeing Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen leave the club
    Chelsea favourites for De Ligt
    Chelsea have emerged as the odds on favourites to land Juventus star Matthijs de Ligt.
    De Ligt has been linked with a move away from the Serie A and Sky Bet are pricing a transfer to Stamford Bridge at 8/11.
    The Blues are desperate to sign a defender or two this summer following the departures of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen.
    Naturally, there have been rumours of Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag and the Netherlands international linking up again, with Sky Bet pricing the move at 8/1.
    Ten Hag was the Ajax boss when the 22-year-old helped the Dutch side to the semi-finals of the Champions League, and made the defender the club’s youngest ever captain at 18 years old
    Mo Salah reminder
    Liverpool star Mohamed Salah was prepared to return to Chelsea before his new Anfield contract made him the highest-paid player in the club’s history, according to SunSport’s Ken Lawrence.
    The Blues’ new owner Todd Boehly lined up Salah as talks with the Reds stalled over a new three-year deal.
    The forward, through agent Ramy Abbas, had made it clear to Fenway Sports Group that he would consider returning to Stamford Bridge, where he spent two years after joining in 2014.
    The Chelsea threat forced a major rethink before handing the Egypt international a deal which will see him bank at least £62million in total.
    It was a major factor in Kop owners FSG coming up with a deal worth a whopping £400,000 a week
    Chelsea close to Sterling
    Chelsea are closing in on the £45million transfer of Manchester City star Raheem Sterling.
    According to the Daily Mail, a deal is set to be struck in the coming days which will see Sterling make the switch to Stamford Bridge from the Etihad.
    The 27-year-old looks on course to pen a four-year deal in West London.
    The England international has spoken with Blues boss Thomas Tuchel and those conversations have only added to his desire to leave City for Chelsea.
    The forward is among the club’s top targets as they appear likely to miss out on Leeds star Raphinha

    Raphinha edging towards Barca move
    Barcelona are close to agreeing a deal to sign Raphinha, according to journalist Gerard Romero.
    The transfer guru claims Barca and Leeds are set to agree a £60milion fee which will see the Brazilian move to the Nou Camp.
    And the winger is reportedly close to accepting a £115,000 a week deal with the Spanish giants.
    Romero also claims Raphinha turned down an approach from Newcastle.
    Ziyech agrees AC Milan move
    Hakim Ziyech has agreed to join AC Milan, according to Calciomercato.
    The Moroccan is set to move to the Serie A champions on a season-long loan deal which will include an obligation to buy.
    The fee to make the move permanent will reportedly be set at £21million though the Blues are seeking a further £4m.
    Sterling selling house to Alexander-Arnold
    Manchester City star Raheem Sterling is ‘negotiating’ to sell his £4.5million Cheshire home to Liverpool defender and England team-mate Trent Alexander-Arnold, according to the Mirror.
    Alexander-Arnold is set to move out of his current south Manchester home, which is on the same road as Reds shot-stopper Alisson and ex-Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.
    And with the right-back ready to purchase Sterling’s house it is possible the City star is preparing to move down south.
    Sterling has been heavily linked with a move to Chelsea this summer but the Blues are yet to agree a fee with City for the winger.
    Go for Ronaldo says Laboeuf
    Former Chelsea star Frank Laboeuf has advised Thomas Tuchel to sign Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, not Neymar.
    He told ESPN: “I would pick Ronaldo because they need someone to finish the actions and score and be more clinical.
    “Neymar is not going to happen, I don’t think Tuchel wants him because he had so many issues when he was the coach of PSG.”
    Newcastle enter Broja transfer race
    Newcastle United want Armando Broja and are now confident of winning the race for the Chelsea striker this summer, report The Northern Echo.
    West Ham opened talks with Chelsea over a permanent deal for Broja in June but that hasn’t really progressed.
    So Newcastle are looking to hijack a potential deal with the Blues seeking around £30million for the striker.
    Chelsea set price for Alonso
    Chelsea and Barcelona are ‘close to reaching a transfer agreement’ for defender Marcos Alonso to move to the Nou Camp this summer, according to Sport.
    The two clubs are set for talks next week after Thomas Tuchel gave his approval for the move.
    Chelsea are reportedly seeking £8.5million for the Spaniard despite Alonso playing a prominent role last season.
    Laporta confirms Raphinha transfer interest
    Barcelona president Joan Laporta has opened up on the club’s rumoured interest in Chelsea target Raphinha.
    Laporta also spoke about Ousmane Dembele, another player Chelsea have their eye on, and hinted at the Frenchman playing alongside Raphinha at the Nou Camp.
    As quoted by Mundo Deportivo, he said: “We have talked about Raphinha with Leeds, we know that the player would also like to come to Barça, but there are also other clubs that want him.
    “It would not be dependent on (Ousmane) Dembélé, because the coach sees them as compatible.”
    Top targets
    Will the Blues be able to secure Raheem and Raphinha this summer?
    They’re certainly trying to.
    It’s all up to new owner Tood Boehly.

    Big earners
    Chelsea are looking to do some serious business this summer.
    Raheem Sterling, Raphinha, Mattijs de Ligt and Jules Kounde have all been linked with moves to Stamford Bridge.
    And you can bet your house they’d all make it into this top earners list.

    Standing returns
    Premier League clubs will get the go-ahead to open safe standing areas in their grounds from the start of the new season.
    Ministers are expected to announce the success of a trial at five stadiums – and invite all top-flight teams to introduce their own sections.
    It will mean that fans will be able to stand to watch Prem or Championship matches for the first time in nearly 30 years.
    Standing has been illegal in the two top divisions since all-seater stadiums were introduced in 1994 following the Taylor report into the Hillsborough disaster.
    But following a pilot scheme last season at Chelsea, Spurs, Cardiff City, Man City and Man United, all other top clubs will be give the all clear to follow suit.
    A final report on the government-commissioned trial seen by The Sun on Sunday says the sections delivered a positive impact on spectator safety and improved fans’ matchday experience.

    De Jong de-lighted by top comp
    Chelsea are hovering as Manchester United sweat on Frenkie de Jong agreeing personal terms over a £60million move.
    That’s the claim from the Guardian, who say the Blues have one major advantage as the Barcelona midfielder wants Champions League football.
    The Red Devils negotiated a fee close to £60m as Barca aim to ease their financial problems by cashing in on a major asset.
    But it’s understood Chelsea are now taking a strong interest in De Jong’s talks with Old Trafford chiefs over personal demands.
    Should there be any stumbling blocks in negotiations, the Blues seem ready to pounce.
    Watch this space…
    ‘Feels good’
    Callum Hudson-Odoi couldn’t contain his delight after returning to pre-season training with Chelsea team-mates Ben Chilwell and Ross Barkley.
    Hudson-Odoi was one of a handful of first-team players to report to the Blues’ Cobham training ground to begin preparation for the new season.
    And the England international – who was blighted by injury last season – shared his delight at being back on the training field shortly after the session.
    Alongside a picture of himself dribbling with the ball, Hudson-Odoi tweeted: “Feels Good to be back!”

    Raph cash boost
    Raphinha is reportedly set to receive a massive pay rise if his proposed move to Barcelona goes through.
    The Spanish giants have stolen a march on Premier League duo Arsenal and Chelsea in the race for the Leeds winger.
    And the Brazilian will reportedly receive a lucrative contract worth £5.2million per year should the deal go through.
    That works out to be £100,000 a week, a whopping £40,000 increase on the winger’s current weekly wages.
    Chelsea appeared to move into pole position to sign Raphinha earlier this week after they tabled a bid north of £55million for his services.
    But a late swoop from Barcelona could potentially scupper the west Londoners’ pursuit of the player.
    Blue-turn
    A reminder of another SunSport transfer exclusive this morning…
    Mo Salah was prepared to move to Chelsea before his deal made him the highest-paid player in Liverpool history.
    Blues’ new owner Todd Boehly had lined up Reds’ star Salah, 30, as talks stalled over a new three-year deal.
    It was a major factor in Kop owners FSG coming up with a deal worth almost £400,000 a week.
    Salah, through agent Ramy Abbas, had made it clear to Fenway Sports Group that he would consider returning to Stamford Bridge, where he spent two years from 2014-16.
    Ron his way
    Chelsea are at the front of the queue to offer Cristiano Ronaldo Champions League football.
    The superstar forward sensationally told Manchester United he wants to quit.
    The Red Devils are determined to stand firm and refuse to sell – but the Portuguese star insists they should give the green light to any ‘acceptable’ bids.
    And that could see the five-time Ballon d’Or winner join rivals Chelsea, who finished third last season – and therefore have a seat at Europe’s top table.
    Thomas Tuchel is on the hunt for a new striker following Romelu Lukaku’s season-long loan to Inter Milan.
    That leaves Timo Werner and Kai Havertz as the only players who can really play up front in the squad.
    The West Londoners are keen to make the forward their marquee signing this summer and have been keeping tabs on his situation with United.
    New Blues chief Todd Boehly recently met with Ronaldo’s agent – Jorge Mendes – to discuss a host of topics, including a potential move for the sporting icon.
    Good morning Chelsea fans
    Manchester United star and reported Chelsea target Cristiano Ronaldo has asked to leave the club if a suitable offer arrives in the summer.
    That is according to The Times, who claim Ronaldo wants out of United because he wants to compete in the Champions League.
    The Red Devils missed out on Europe’s top competition after finishing sixth and will instead play in the Europa League.
    That poses as a major blow for new boss Erik ten Hag, who is looking to turn things around at Old Trafford.
    Meanwhile, Leeds star Raphinha has asked his agent Deco to block any further advances from Chelsea.
    According to Sport, the Brazil international is not keen on moving to Stamford Bridge and is prepared to wait for Barca to come calling.
    The winger has asked Deco to “stop’ negotiations with the Blues in order to ‘prioritise” a move to the Nou Camp.
    Club chiefs have been left flummoxed by the 25-year-old’s stance against joining them as they did not expect him to refuse a move to west London.
    And Chelsea are targeting Paris Saint-Germain star Presnel Kimpembe in the summer transfer window.
    The Blues were considering a move for £34million-rated Kimpembe in the past two transfer windows.
    According to Goal, that “interest from Chelsea still exists” over the talented centre-back.
    It seems the West Londoners are keen again after seeing Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen leave.
    Finally, PSG superstar and Chelsea transfer target Neymar has activated a clause in his contract to extend his stay in Paris until 2027.
    The star forward most recently put pen to paper on a five-year extension in 2021.
    But the Brazil international has now activated his annual extension option, which means his deal will stretch until 2027, according to Sport.
    That means the 30-year-old is set to earn £155m more from PSG with the forward being paid £31m per year.
    The Parisians are said to be looking for a buyer to take the Brazilian off their hands, with president Nasser Al-Khelaifi looking to move away from their high-earner model.
    Neymar has been linked with Chelsea but his £600,000-a-week wages are putting the Blues and other potential suitors off this summer
    In the Leed
    Chelsea have received a major boost in their ongoing transfer war with Barcelona over Leeds star Raphinha.
    According to Diario AS, the Blaugrana may not need the Brazil international after all as Ousmane Dembele “has got closer to renewing” his deal.
    Dembele’s contract runs out today and the Catalan giants are frantically trying to convince him to pen a new one as manager Xavi wants him in his squad this coming season.
    And it seems like there is a significant possibility the forward may remain at the Nou Camp
    Chelsea’ magic Wad
    Chelsea youngster Ethan Wady signed a one-year extension with the club before being offloaded to Woking on loan.
    Wady, 20, has joined the non-league side but first put pen to paper on a new contract with the Blues until 2023.
    This marks the goalkeeper’s fifth loan stint ever since his move to the club’s esteemed academy in 2018.
    Woking manager Darren Sarll sang the 20-year-old’s praises and hinted he could get a fair share of first-team football

    Do no Ron
    Manchester United wantaway star Cristiano Ronaldo should ignore Chelsea’s interest and stay at Old Trafford this summer, claims former striker Louis Saha.
    Saha told BonusCodeBets: “It could go both ways, no one can guarantee anything apart from Cristiano. He’s the only one to answer that.
    “It wouldn’t be the right move for Man United to let him go because he’s such a big asset.
    “I can definitely see him continuing to keep doing what he’s doing best, which is scoring goals and helping his club get back to where it belongs.
    “He can still play a part under [Erik] Ten Hag, not only by scoring goals, but with his stature.
    “I’m sure the new manager will want to implement some new rules and new standards that fit with Ronaldo. Maybe not so much on the pressing side, but his work ethic and his desire to always be accountable.
    “Performance-wise, Ronaldo is up there with the best, he’ll drive the players that need confidence, like [Marcus] Rashford.
    “It’s a new manager, new rules, new atmosphere and I’m very excited”

    Man Utd could attempt to sign De Vrij this summerCredit: Getty
    But, his current contract expires next summer so the club are open to the idea of selling him as soon as possible to avoid the risk of losing him for free.
    As a result, according to Italian outlet Gazzetta Dello Sport, Man Utd are interested in a potential swoop.
    Signing a defender is at the top of Erik ten Hag’s list of priorities and he is said to be considering De Vrij because of the Dutchman’s ability to dribble the ball.
    The Red Devils have not yet made an official offer as the centre back is still waiting for confirmation from Inter regarding his future.

    If he is given the green light to leave, United will likely consider a serious bid.
    But until that happens, Ten Hag is focussing on other potential additions.
    Man Utd have not made any new signings so far this summer, however, they are close to securing the signature of Feyenoord left-back Tyrell Malacia.
    The 22-year-old is set to join the club in a £15million move to help improve the defence.

    The 26-year-old is facing an uncertain future in Bavaria with the player having just a year left on his deal at the Allianz Arena.
    And according to 90min, Arsenal are closely following his contract situation at Bayern.

    Speaking in June, Bayern president Herbert Hainer admitted that talks to extend Gnabry’s stay have stalled.

    Asked by Sky Sport Germany whether he will be sold if he doesn’t renew, he said: “I’m very clear about that, he’s a great guy.

    But United failed to qualify for the Champions League and Ronaldo is keen to leave to play in Europe’s premier competition.
    The Portuguese has reportedly asked the club to let him leave if they receive a suitable offer for his services.
    And despite his icon status at Old Trafford and his importance to the team last term, many supporters would be happy if CR7 left.
    Some feel his departure is exactly what the club needs as it embarks on a new chapter under Erik ten Hag, with suggestions Ronaldo’s exit could create opportunities for other players.

    CRISTIANO RONALDO has stunned Manchester United by asking to LEAVE, according to reports.The Portuguese superstar wants to play in the Champions League and United failed to qualify for Europe’s top club competition last season.
    Elsewhere, Frenkie de Jong is also on the club’s radar, with the Dutchman reportedly nearing a move to Old Trafford, but the two clubs are still looking to agree a fee.
    United are also interested in signing Palmeiras winger Gabriel Veron as well as Ajax’s Lisandro Martinez.

    De Jong a priority
    Manchester United have made Barcelona star Frenkie de Jong a summer transfer “priority”.
    According to the Daily Mirror, De Jong is undoubtedly United’s most important signing of the summer so far.
    The midfielder is earmarked as manager Erik ten Hag’s priority in the off-season and will go a long way to replacing the likes of Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic in the centre.
    The Netherlands international will sign a five-year contract worth £250,000 per week once he touches down at Old Trafford following a £56million deal with Barca
    Barcelona being Frenk
    Barcelona have assured transfer targets significant funds will be raised after Frenkie de Jong’s imminent move to Manchester United amid their bid to sign Leeds star Raphinha.
    Barca have been embroiled in an intense transfer war to land the winger along with Chelsea and Arsenal but are struggling to meet the Whites’ £55million asking price.
    According to Manchester Evening News, however, the Blaugrana are confident money won’t be an issue after De Jong joins United for a reported £56m deal.
    Reports suggest the Red Devils have reached an agreement with the Catalan giants and hope the midfielder will link up with the rest of the squad in time to fly to Bangkok for pre-season

    Henderson joins Forest
    Manchester United star Dean Henderson has completed a season-long loan move to Nottingham Forest.
    Henderson is looking for regular football ahead of the 2022 World Cup, and is expected to be Forest’s starting goalkeeper with last season’s No1 Brice Samba heading for the exit.
    The newly-promoted side will pay all of the England international’s salary and it is understood there is no option to buy.
    The 25-year-old will also not be able to play against United during his loan stint at the City Ground
    Ronaldo’s next destinations
    Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo will certainly not be short of suitors if he leaves in the summer.
    According to The Times, Bayern Munich and Premier League rivals Chelsea could try and snatch him if he departs from Old Trafford.
    New Blues owner Todd Boehly met the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s representatives Gestifute last month.
    Bayern, on the other hand, would first like to wait and see what happens with their own wantaway superstar Robert Lewandowski, as they have already signed Sadio Mane from Liverpool.
    A return to the Serie A, where he enjoying a successful stint with Juventus, is also on the cards
    More reasons to go
    Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has informed the club he would like to leave if a suitable offer arrives.
    According to The Times, it’s not just professional reasons, such as playing in the Champions League, that led Ronaldo that decision.
    The five-time Ballon d’Or winner also stated there are personal reasons behind that.
    That is because the star forward’s young family has been dealing with a difficult period
    More on Ronaldo
    Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo believes he has “three or four years” left at the highest level and would like to spend them at a Champions League club.
    That is according to The Times, who report that Ronaldo no longer views his future at United following last season’s state of disrepair.
    And according to close friends, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s affection and respect for the Red Devils fans remains as strong as ever.
    The star forward has been part of 19 consecutive Champions League seasons since leaving Sporting Lisbon for English football in the summer of 2003

    Ronaldo wants out
    Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has asked to leave the club if a suitable offer arrives in the summer.
    That is according to The Times, who report that Ronaldo wants out of United because he wants to play in the Champions League.
    The Red Devils missed out on Europe’s premiere competition after finishing sixth and will instead be in the Europa League.
    That poses as a hammer blow for new manager Erik ten Hag, who is looking to turn things around at Old Trafford
    Malacia medical ‘may happen this weekend’
    Man Utd’s proposed offer to Tyrell Malacia includes a four-year contract with the option of a 5th.
    And according to The Athletic, his medical may happen this weekend.
    United are also trying to reach an agreement with Ajax for Lisandro Martinez while Frenkie de Jong and Chrsitian Eriksen remain linked.
    Fee agreed for Malacia
    Manchester United have reportedly agreed a fee to sign Tyrell Malacia.
    Accoring to reports, United, have agreed personal terms, waiting to sign the contracts.
    Deal worth nearly £13m plus £1.7m in add-ons to Feyenoord.
    Malacia will be new manager Erik ten Hag’s first signing at Old Trafford.
    Fans at Old Trafford will be happy to see somebody through the door.
    Maguire in good shape on Amalfi coast honeymoon
    Harry Maguire has been soaking up the sun on the Amalfi coast on his honeymoon with Fern Hawkins.
    The Manchester United captain, 29, tied the knot with Fern at the spectacular Chateau de Varennes in the South of France at the end of June.
    But Maguire has now swapped France for Italy for his first few days as a married man.
    And the England star appeared to be having a great time as he relaxed with his new wife Fern.
    He also dived into the sea and went for a swim – clearly making the most of his time off while his United team-mates returned to training this week.

    Highest-paid player at every Premier League club
    Mohamed Salah’s new contract at Liverpool has doubled his wages, making him one of the highest earning Premier League players.
    The new deal, which was announced on Friday, ended months of speculation regarding the forward’s future, with his previous deal due to expire in the summer of 2023.
    His new £400,000 deal makes him the Premier League’s joint-second highest paid player.
    How do you feel about your club’s highest paid player?
    Rolando is at a WHOPPING £510k-a-week deal.

    United transfer target De Jong proposes
    Manchester United are favourites to sign midfielder Frenkie De Jong.
    But he has admirers at Stamford Bridge, according to The Guardian.
    As does fiancee Mikky Kiemeney, with the Barcelona star getting on one knee to propose in Utah this weekend.
    Posting the snaps on social media, Kiemeney added: “I SAID YES!” 

    Man Utd ‘make £39m offer’ for Lisandro Martinez
    Manchester United have reportedly made a £39.6 million offer for Lisandro Martinez as they look to hijack the transfer from rivals Arsenal.
    The Ajax defender is in hot demand and some of the biggest Premier League clubs are set to scrap over him.
    The Gunners have already seen their £34m for Argentine defender rejected, leaving the door open for Erik ten Hag to raid his former club.
    The Mirror report the Red Devils have lodged a £39m bid, which falls close to the Dutch club’s £43m evaluation.
    Ten Hag has identified the defender as United look to fix their leaky defence.

    A fine career
    Goram, 58, made 260 appearances for Rangers between 1991 and 1998. In that time, he won five league titles, three Scottish Cups and two League Cups.
    After Rangers, he was to feature for Notts County, Sheffield United, Motherwell for three seasons, and Manchester United, where he helped the Red Devils claim the Premier League in 2001.
    He played at Hamilton Accies, Coventry, another spell at Oldham, Queen of the South and then lastly Elgin City.
    Internationally, Goram won 43 caps for Scotland and was the first-choice goalkeeper for both Euro 92 and Euro 96 in Sweden and England respectively for the Scots.
    He is a member of the Scottish Football Hall of Fame, and was named both the Scottish PFA and Football Writers’ Player of the Year in 1992-93, arguably the strongest campaign in Rangers’ history.
    Ex-United goalie Andy Goram passes away
    Rangers have confirmed that former Manchester United goalkeeper Andy Goram has died.
    A club statement read: “Rangers Football Club are today deeply saddened to announce the death of legendary goalkeeper, Andy Goram, following a short battle with cancer.”

    United £150k-a-week offer to Eriksen
    Manchester United have reportedly agreed to offer Christian Eriksen a £150,000-per-week contract.
    However it’s said the Danish star wants to wait and see who else new manager Erik ten Hag brings in to Old Trafford this window before offering his signature.
    Eriksen, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Brentford, is a target for several Premier League clubs this window.
    The 30-year-old is not in a rush to decide where he agrees to play.

    Ten Hag dines out
    Erik ten Hag headed out for a meal at Manchester’s plush Ivy restaurant last night as he navigates the first week of pre-season.
    After another long day at the training ground, the Dutchman was able to sample one of Manchester’s nicest restaurants on Thursday evening.
    Donning a white zip-up and trousers combo, Ten Hag appeared relaxed as he arrived at The Ivy alongside assistant Mitchell van der Gaag and his partner.
    The trio dined at the Manchester hotspot, before strolling back to The Lowry Hotel at around 10:30pm.

    Henderson loan to Forest complete
    Manchester United’s Dean Henderson has completed a season-long loan move to Nottingham Forest.
    The 25-year-old is looking for regular football ahead of the upcoming World Cup in Qatar, and is expected to be no.1 for the newly-promoted side.
    Forest will pay all of his wages in the deal and it is understood there is no option to buy in the loan arrangement.
    Henderson will also not be able to play against United during his loan.

    Lingard ‘low-risk’ signing for Spurs
    Conte has already brought in attackers Ivan Perisic and Richarlison as well as Yves Bissouma further back.
    But the former Man Utd man Lingard would offer something in between, primarily as a creative midfielder where he has previously shone for England.
    The new signings also take Conte over the non-homegrown quota for Tottenham’s Champions League return this season so the former United academy star would help on that front, too.
    Despite a largely underwhelming season, playing 540 minutes of football across 21 appearances, the 29-year-old is seen as a “low-risk” signing, the Telegraph adds.
    He excelled during his loan stint at West Ham in 2020-21, getting himself back into Gareth Southgate’s England team.
    Spurs in for Lingard
    Tottenham have joined the race to sign Jesse Lingard on a free transfer, according to reports.
    Antonio Conte is keen to add another homegrown player into his squad ahead of the new season.
    Lingard was released by boyhood club Manchester United when his contract expired on Thursday night.
    And that means the midfielder is now unemployed with the new Premier League season just five weeks away.
    According to The Telegraph, though, he could be snapped up by Spurs.

    United in for De Ligt
    Chelsea have emerged as the odds on favourites ahead of Manchester United to sign the Juventus centre back Matthijs de Ligt.
    The Netherlands international has been linked with a move away from Italy and Sky Bet are pricing a move to Stamford Bridge at 8/11.
    Chelsea are desperate to sign a central defender or two this summer following the departures of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen.
    Erik ten Hag was the Ajax manager when de Ligt helped the Dutch side to the semi-finals of the Champions League, and made the defender the club’s youngest ever captain at 18 years old.
    Naturally, there have been rumours of ten Hag and de Ligt linking up again, with Sky Bet pricing the move at 8/1.
    Blues watching De Jong developments
    Chelsea are watching transfer developments with Frenkie de Jong.
    Manchester United are still favourites to sign the Barcelona midfielder but he has admirers at Stamford Bridge, according to The Guardian.
    Meanwhile, deals for Nathan Ake and Raheem Sterling said to be “progressing” for the Blues.
    Malacia medical ‘may happen this weekend’
    Man Utd’s proposed offer to Tyrell Malacia includes a four-year contract with the option of a 5th.
    And according to The Athletic, his medical may happen this weekend.
    United are also trying to reach an agreement with Ajax for Lisandro Martinez while Frenkie de Jong and Chrsitian Eriksen remain linked.
    Suit and Ty
    Manchester United have reportedly agreed a fee to sign Tyrell Malacia.
    Accoring to reports, United, have agreed personal terms, waiting to sign the contracts.
    Deal worth nearly £13m plus £1.7m in add-ons to Feyenoord.
    Malacia will be new manager Erik ten Hag’s first signing at Old Trafford.
    Fans at Old Trafford will be happy to see somebody through the door.

    Arsenal are claimed to have agreed personal terms with Leicester’s Youri TielemansCredit: Reuters
    The 25-year-old is expected to leave the Midlands outfit this summer with his contract at the King Power Stadium to expire next year.
    Mikel Arteta is known to be an admirer of the Belgium international as he looks to bring the No8 to the Emirates.
    It had been thought that Arsenal were to secure his services in June, but they have dithered over a deal, leading the Red Devils to eye up a move.
    And according to transfer guru Ben Jacobs, Newcastle are also keen on the ex-Monaco ace with sporting director Dan Ashworth making enquiries to Leicester.

    He has also stressed that Erik ten Hag’s interest could force Arsenal into making a first offer.
    Should Arsenal and Leicester agree a fee, Tielemans would then opt to make the move to North London ahead of any other side.
    Jacobs tweeted: “Youri Tielemans update. Still no formal offers made. Tielemans wants to join Arsenal and Edu still in touch with his agent.
    “Arsenal have agreed terms, and worked on the deal for a year, but have never placed an official bid.

    “Tielemans was actually a Ralf Rangnick target but didn’t want to join Man Utd under him.
    “If Arsenal reach an agreement with Leicester, told Tielemans will sign. But for now, Arsenal haven’t decided on him.
    “The genuine interest from Man Utd may force Edu to make a decision quicker than expected, especially if ten Hag pitch proves appealing.”
