REPORT: £50M LIVERPOOL TARGET SET TO LEAVE CLUB THIS SUMMER

Liverpool are one of three ‘finalists’ who will battle it out to sign Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni this summer. That’s according to French outlet RMC Sport. They claim that the Liverpool target will no longer be a Monaco player next season, regardless of whether the Principality side qualify for the Champions League or not.


The Reds are reportedly one of the front-runners to finalise his departure from Monaco. Joining Liverpool in the race are Real Madrid and Chelsea. It’s also claimed that PSG ‘has not said its last word.’ However their task is made difficult by the fact that Tchouameni would reportedly prefer a challenge away from France.

                ARSENAL TO COMMENCE MASSIVE SQUAD OVERHAUL THS SUMMER

It’s shaping up to be a busy summer transfer window for Arsenal as Mikel Arteta puts the finishing touches to his first-team squad overhaul. The March international break is officially under way and for some, it will likely be their penultimate experience of one as an Arsenal player ahead of what is expected to be a busy summer in terms of incomings and outgoings.


This is because there is another international break at the end of the season. For example, England are in UEFA Nations League action in June with their Group A clashes against Hungary and Germany taking place before the summer transfer window officially opens on June 9.

Godfrey has been a regular in the Everton defence this season and he will miss around 4 to 5 weeks as a result of the abovementioned hamstring injury. The Englishman is not expected to return to full fitness until next month at least. Godfrey is in his second season at Everton on the back on his big transfer from Norwich City at the start of last season.

England international Lingard was a hit when he left Manchester United to join fellow Premier League team West Ham United on loan during the second half of last season. His goals almost fired the Hammers to Champions League football and they had to settle for a place in the Europa League in the end. West Ham United wanted to sign the Englishman this summer with a year left on his contract, but he opted to stay and fight for a spot in the starting XI at Old Trafford. Apart from the Hammers, Spanish champions Atletico Madrid and Italian champions Inter Milan were also interested in him in the summer. His decision has come back to haunt him as he has failed to start a league game at Manchester United this season despite netting twice off the bench and he has been linked with a lot of big European teams. The Manchester United Academy graduate has been linked with a free transfer move to long-term admirers Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and AC Milan.
