#5 Premier League trio target Basel star

Arsenal will face stiff competition to sign Basel winger

Spanish media outlet, AS, say, while citing “Ottoman sources”, that West Ham are locked in a war with Sevilla over the ‘next Sergio Busquets’ Okay Yokuslu. He is reportedly going to cost €8 million, which is not much in this transfer market.

Meanwhile, sources have informed ESPN that Premier League trio Arsenal, Southampton and Leicester City are keen to bring Basel star Mohamed Elyounoussi to their respective clubs.

#4 Liverpool target Man City prospect

Alisson is one of the hottest prospects in Europe right now

Sport Witness are relaying a story with a picture of Gazetta dello Sport that Alisson’s recent performances against Napoli, where he made 12 saves to ensure that his team win 4-2, have increased Roma’s asking price to €50 million.

So Liverpool will have to pay that if they want to sign him.

Meanwhile, Portuguese outlet O Jogo claim that Manchester City’s young star Javairo Dilrosun has several clubs circling around him—as he is going to be a free agent in the summer—and Liverpool are one of them.

#3 Manchester United find De Gea replacement

Asensio is a wanted man in the Premier League

Marco Asensio is a man who has a lot of offers it seems as Diario Gol state that no less than four Premier League outfits—Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Manchester City—are vying for his signature, with City being the one that have offered him double the wages that he gets at the Bernabeu.

Florentino Perez, however, isn’t keen on selling him as he actually blocked the youngster’s move to Liverpool in the winter.

Meanwhile, there are more rumours regarding Man United as David De Gea is close to joining Madrid and Mourinho wants to replace him with Barcelona’s Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, say Diario Gol, and will offer more than £100 million for the player, say Don Balon.

#2 United eyeing Tottenham trio

United will look to renew their interest in Dier during the summer

According to the busy folks at The Sun, Harry Kane has vowed to stay at Tottenham for at least another season. The Londoners, however, will face a fight to keep their two defenders Toby Alderweireld and Danny Rose as Manchester United will try to sign them both in the summer.

The only problem? They have to let go of Luke Shaw first, who is not in Pochettino’s interests either.

Meanwhile, Transfermarketweb claims that United are set to test the grit of Tottenham Hotspur by renewing their interest in Eric Dier. They believe that a starting bid of £55 million will be enough to start the talks.

Finally, Samuel Umtiti will not join United despite Mourinho falling in love with him, say Sport, as he is completely happy at Barcelona and wants to continue at the club.

#1 Tottenham planning Bundesliga raid

Bundesliga prospect has caught the eye of Spurs

The North Londoners are quite busy here today as according to a report from TalkSPORT, Jan-Fiete Arp is on the radar of Tottenham Hotspur. Arp mentioned that Kane is one of his idols and Spurs could make him play with the Englishman by making a bid for him the summer.

That’s not all from Tottenham’s cravings from the Bundesliga as VfB Stuttgart’s defensive star, Benjamin Pavard, has attracted interest from the Lilywhites, who will make an attempt to sign him in the summer, after some top-notch performances for his club this season.
