for Borussia Dortmund star Ousmane Dembele, according to

Sporting director Robert Fernandez reportedly is a fan of the

Porto starlet Ruben Neves, the Mirror reports .

MAN UTD HAVE RONALDO
DOUBTS
Manchester United are reluctant to try to sign Cristiano
Ronaldo from Real Madrid, according to the Daily
Express .
The 32-year-old is said to be eager to leave Real Madrid,
but Jose Mourinho's side have doubts about entering the
race to sign their former player. United fear that Ronaldo's
alleged desire to leave could be merely a way to extract a
better deal from Madrid, and therefore do not want to spend
the summer negotiating for a player they can never sign.

AUBAMEYANG
Manchester City are not preparing a £60 million bid for

Sanchez during the summer transfer window.

WANTED BY PL CLUBS

Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City this summer,
according to Sky Sports.

campaign operating in a wing-back role.
The trio of aforementioned top-tier clubs are said to be
monitoring the 23-year-old's situation ahead of potential
bids.

to the Dutch champions until 2021 and it is said he will
command a large transfer fee.

leave White Hart Lane. His transfer value is estimated at
£45 million.

ASANO DENIED ARSENAL
RETURN
Takuma Asano will remain at Stuttgart on loan from
Arsenal for at least one more season, according to Bild .

Wenger’s side.

PJANIC IS BARCA'S PLAN B
Miralem Pjanic has become Barcelona’s back-up option
should they fail to sign Marco Verratti from Paris Saint-
Germain, Mundo Deportivo say .
Verratti is Barcelona’s main target, but the Ligue 1 side are
determined to hold onto him. Should a move for the Italian
fail to materialise, Juventus star Pjanic is the one they will
turn to, while Jean Seri of Nice remains an option.

MBAPPE CHOOSES MADRID
Kylian Mbappe has made it clear to Monaco that he wants
to join Real Madrid, Marca reports .
Speculation around the 18-year-old is ever growing, as the
Ligue 1 side try to hold off interest from Europe's top
teams after his exemplary season. But the France
international has told Monaco's owner that Madrid are the
only side he wants to join.

SPURS & ARSENAL IN
SMALLING BATTLE

be sold by United and he is wanted by Spurs boss Mauricio
Pochettino, who is ready to offload Kevin Wimmer amid
interest from Southampton in the Austrian defender.
