Man Utd: Pundit says it will be ’hard’ to find Sanchez a new club
Saturday, April 25
Liverpool are interested in a deal for £70m-rated Lazio forward Joaquin Correa
Manchester United face a problem in the form of Alexis Sanchez, who is set to return from Inter Milan
Everton have struck an agreement with Chelsea target Gabriel Magalhaes over personal terms
Chelsea step up interest in Dries Mertens
Wilfred Ndidi future
Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has shot down speculation he could leave the King Power Stadium.
Manchester United have been linked with a move for the Nigeria international.
"We are doing well and I am enjoying myself here," he told ESPN.
"I still have a contract with Leicester. I am learning and trying to improve myself every day and I am doing OK here, so no need to go anywhere."
Liverpool eye Joaquin Correa transfer
Liverpool are looking at Lazio winger Joaquin Correa, according to Citta Celeste.
The 25-year-old forward has an €80million (£70m) release clause under the terms of his contract although, in a boost to Jurgen Klopp, the Serie A giants could be willing to compromise.
Lazio are reportedly willing to offload Correa if Liverpool are serious about their interest.
As a result, a deal could be struck that sees the Reds offering €60m (£52.5m) while agreeing to scrap their 30 per cent resale clause on Luis Alberto.
Man Utd’s Alexis Sanchez problem
Manchester United are facing a costly problem over Alexis Sanchez.
The former Arsenal ace is on a season-long loan at Inter Milan but the Serie A giants have no interest in keeping him.
He will return to Old Trafford but is likely to be forced to train away from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s first-team squad, according to The Sun.
Sanchez is owed around £55million under the terms of his current contract so United chiefs would be forced to compromise in order to get him off the books.
Everton agreement
Everton have secured an agreement with Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes.
Chelsea have been heavily linked with a move for the 22-year-old but the Toffees appear to be in pole position.
According to Football Insider, Everton have agreed personal terms on a five-year contract with Magalhaes.
A £30million offer has already been tabled to Lille, who are likely to accept.
Magalhaes has been earmarked as Carlo Ancelotti’s first summer signing.
Dries Mertens: Pundit discusses Napoli star's transfer options
Chelsea contact for Dries Mertens
Frank Lampard has held talks with Napoli ace Dries Mertens over a potential deal, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.
Chelsea are long-term admirers of the 32-year-old, who is out of contract at the end of season.
The Blues would be willing to sell Olivier Giroud if Mertens agrees to join.
