Jurgen Klopp on Real Madrid's radar

The Sun has claimed that the Real Madrid hierarchy have been impressed by Jurgen Klopp's work at Liverpool. Perez and co. are looking at the German tactician to take over the reins at the Bernabeu if Zinedine Zidane gets the boot in the summer.

Zidane's future depends on Madrid's European excursions as a failure to win the Champions League is likely to get him sacked after a dismal league run.

Everton want Aaron Cresswell

The Toffees are looking to raid West Ham United for the services of left-back Aaron Cresswell. The Sun reports that Everton are set to make a £25 million bid for the fullback who hails from Merseyside.

Everton boss Sam Allardyce is keen on reuniting with Cresswell as it was he who brought the former Ipswich Town defender to the Premier League.
