Eric-Dier-Spurs

Jose Mourinho is thought to be ready to sell David de Gea to Real Madrid and replace him with Ederson. Lazio have told Manchester United that they will sell Stefan de Vrig but want £25 million for him, even though he only has a year left on his contract. The 25-year-old (26 next February) Dutch international ( he has 30 caps and has scored 3 goals) has a host of clubs to choose from.

The Sunday Express are trying to tell us that Chelsea are struggling to keep hold of Antonio Conte, which is complete horse manure. Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport write that Inter Milan have been unable to convince Conte to join them.

The Star on Sunday is as unreliable as the Star in midweek, now telling us that Spurs rejected a Manchester United bid of £50 million for Eric Dier in January. Why are we getting reports that they will offer £40 million now then! No chance of it being accepted, still it keeps the journalists amused.

The Sunday Mirror tell us we are planning to ditch Georges-Kevin N'Koudou who has admitted he has not had the winning mentally in training that we require. The same newspaper tell us that Newcastle United are planning an attempt to sign Tottenham linked 25-year-old (26 in June) striker Andre Gray from Burnley.

They also tell us that Jurgen Klopp is closing in on a £12 million deal for 20-year-old (21 in June) Leicester City winger Demarai Gray. He is frustrated by his lack of game time which could suggest he thinks he is netter than he is, which could be a mental issue for his potential suitors, Liverpool, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur.

Tuttosport reveal that Juventus have agreed personal terms with Tottenham target and Sampdoria striker Patrick Schick. No surprise there then, fully expected him to stay in Italy.

French newspaper L'Equipe report that Olympique Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette has announced h i's leaving this summer. Er yes we know, he has an agreement to join Atletico Madrid should, as expected, their transfer ban is overturned.
