What the papers say

Maurizio Sarri‘s fate as head coach at Chelsea is set to be decided in the next fortnight, according to the Daily Telegraph. The Italian is facing increased scrutiny since Chelsea’s 6-0 loss at the hands of Manchester City, the paper reports, with the club said to be facing a season-defining run of fixtures in the coming weeks.

Manchester United have reportedly set their sights on Paris St Germain midfielder Adrien Rabiot. The Mirror says reports in Spain suggest United have emerged as the latest Premier League team to show an interest in the 23-year-old Frenchman, who is out of contract at the end of the season. The club could face competition from the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham and Barcelona, the paper adds.
