What the papers say
Manchester United are reportedly eyeing up Leicester and World Cup star Harry Maguire. The Daily Mirror reports that United have made enquiries to the Foxes about the £65million-rated defender, who is just one year into a five-year deal.
United have made contact with the representatives of Eintracht Frankfurt’s Ante Rebic over a potential summer move, according to the Daily Mail. The 24-year-old, who impressed during Croatia’s World Cup campaign, was said to have attracted the attention of Jose Mourinho. Rebic has also been linked with Arsenal and Bayern Munich, the paper says.
Chelsea are monitoring the situation of Lazio’s Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, according to the Independent. The team would potentially put in a bid if any rivals make a move, the paper says, as it is believed the Serbia international would favour a switch to Stamford Bridge.
