Page 4 - EPL Transfer News: Barcelona to hurt Real Madrid with signing of Liverpool superstar in exchange for Coutinho, Madrid target set to sign new deal and more

Bad news for Real Madrid

Manchester City v Tottenham Hotspur - UEFA Champions League Quarter Final: Second Leg

Real Madrid have been linked with a plethora of Premier League players ever since Zinedine Zidane took over the reins for the second time. The Frenchman is said to be looking at Paul Pogba and Eden Hazard while Christian Eriksen is also being targetted alongside Sadio Mane.

However, he might not get the Dane as a report from Goal suggests that the Lilywhites are confident that they would be able to tie the former Ajax star to a new deal that would see his wages get doubled from £75,000 to £150,000-per-week.

Meanwhile, according to reports from Spain, Lionel Messi wants Barcelona to sign Mohamed Salah. They are willing to swap Coutinho in order to water down the price and that could turn out to be a big blow for the Galacticos since Liverpool won’t sell Sadio Mane – a Blancos target – if they lose Salah to Barcelona.
