What the papers say
Manchester United will not be backing away from the transfer market after the signing of Jadon Sancho has been confirmed, with the Guardian reporting Declan Rice, Pau Torres and Harry Kane feature on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s wishlist.
Mesut Ozil finally being off Arsenal’s books means the Gunners have more funds for summer signings, with goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale and Benfica left-back Nuno Tavares set to be the first new arrivals through the door, reports the Daily Mirror.
Chris Wilder and Steve Cooper have both been linked with the vacant position at Craven Cottage, writes the Daily Mirror. Fulham remain managerless after Scott Parker left at the end of June.
Bayern Munich will ask for £77million for Kingsley Coman amid interest from Manchester United and Liverpool for the 25-year-old, writes the Daily Star.
Juventus are looking to hijack Roma’s bid for Swiss star Granit Xhaka, says the Daily Star. Roma have offered £13m for Xhaka while Arsenal are hoping for a sum north of £17m and are hoping to spark a bidding war between the Serie A rivals.
