LIVERPOOL READY TO SELL STURRIDGE
Liverpool are willing to listen to offers of around £25million for Daniel Sturridge, claims the Sunday Mirror, with Jurgen Klopp increasingly frustrated with the striker’s injury record.Sturridge has started only three games in the Premier League this season and has managed only 106 minutes under Klopp since the German took over at Anfield in October.
The 26-year-old was again absent when Liverpool drew 2-2 with Exeter in the FA Cup on Friday night, with the Reds hierarchy now seemingly ready to cut their losses on the England international.
ARSENAL IN XHAKA AND RABIOT TALKS
Already poised to announce the signing of Mohamed Elneny, the Daily Star Sunday claims Arsenal are hoping to spend another £52million on two more players, Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Granit Xhaka and Paris Saint-Germain’s Adrien Rabiot, who also plays in midfield.Xhaka, 23, will cost £37million, it is said, while the mother of Rabiot, 20, who is also his agent, is apparently in London on Sunday to discuss a £15million transfer for her son.
The newspaper does not explain why Arsene Wenger wants to sign three midfielders this month but says he has decided to act having missed out on Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who he was willing to spend £42.2million on.
BARCA TARGET RAMSEY AND STONES
Perhaps one explanation for Arsenal’s apparent interest in three midfielders this month is that according to the Sunday Express, Barcelona are preparing a £50million summer offer for Aaron Ramsey.The Catalans are also apparently willing to spend a similar amount on Everton defender John Stones, who Gerard Pique praised earlier in the season.
‘Both players couldn’t help but be tempted by moves’ to the Nou Camp, the newspaper adds.
LUKAKU TO LEAVE EVERTON BUT SNUB MAN UTD
Romelu Lukaku is also set to leave Everton in the summer, according to the Sun on Sunday, and wants to join either Paris Saint-Germain or Real Madrid.Manchester United are interested in the striker, the newspaper claims, but Lukaku would apparently prefer a move away from the Premier League, though it is said the 22-year-old would eventually like to return to Chelsea, where he feels he has unfinished business.
Everton boss Roberto Martinez has ruled out allowing any of his stars leaving Goodison Park this month, but Lukaku could generate up to £50million worth of funds for the Toffees.
