Eric Bailly transfer battle
PSG have joined Arsenal and Tottenham in the race to sign Manchester United star Eric Bailly.
“But he’s got [Laurent] Koscielny coming back, they’ve missed him, but he’s a little bit older but I’m sure he’s working hard to get back in the side so I think he’ll assess the situation when it comes to January.

“He’ll be lining people up anyway.”
The Daily Mail say the Ligue 1 giants have shown an interest in the out-of-favour defender.

Bailly, 24, has become increasingly frustrated under Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford after losing his starting spot.

Mourinho is desperate to sign a new centre-back in January which could see Bailly’s United career come to an end.

Marko Arnautovic on West Ham exit
Marko Arnautovic has played down talk he wants to leave West Ham, insisting he’s fully focused on the Hammers.

“I don’t want to talk about it. I am concentrated on West Ham,” the Chelsea and Man Utd-linked striker said.

“We have a big game against Manchester City on Saturday and I am only thinking about this game and the following games and what is being said is not my business.



“My business is to perform on the pitch, to put in performances and that is what I want to do.”
Man Utd open Kante talks
Chelsea have been rocked by Man Utd opening transfer talks with N’Golo Kante’s entourage, it’s claimed.

The Blues are eager to tie Kante down to a new contract, with the midfielder’s current deal expiring in 2021.

Yet Caught Offside have sensationally claimed Manchester United have sounded out the player’s entourage for talks about a potential transfer.

Caught Offside reckon United have opened talks with the player and are hopeful of signing him.

Liverpool transfer backed
Liverpool would be the perfect destination for Borussia Dortmund star Christian Pulisic, ESPN FC pundit Paul Mariner claims.

“Let’s look at [Xherdan] Shaqiri,” Mariner said of the Reds and Chelsea target. Shaqiri was a bit of an eyebrow raiser – ‘why has he signed Shaqiri?’.

“Shaqiri can be a little bit in and out, he’s not the most consistent of footballers. He’s obviously sat him down and said ‘listen mate, if you want to play in this team, you’ve got to do A, B, C, D, E, F and so on and so forth’.

“And he is, everybody’s saying now maybe Shaqiri should be coming into the line up.

“If Pulisic was to go to Liverpool, the nurturing and the way that Klopp puts his arm around players, I think it would be a fabulous move for him.”
