🤑 Transfer gossip: Man Utd want Soumare? Eriksen set for PSG switch? | OneFootball

There’s no such thing as ‘hump day’ in the world of transfer gossip.

Let’s take a look at what the papers are saying this fine Wednesday, shall we?

Real Talk 👏

Everything looked set for Christian Eriksen to join Inter this summer but a new report from The Mirror has insisted that there’s another side in for the Tottenham playmaker. Paris Saint-Germain – who haven’t got enough versatile attackers – are ready to make their move, and could bid as early as this month to get their man.

John Stones has endured a difficult few seasons at Manchester City. There was a time when the 25-year-old was seen as the future of the club and a potential England captain.

Those days seem like a distant pass though, with Pep Guardiola dropping Stones to the bench on a number of occasions this season. There was a report on Tuesday that claimed Arsenal were in for the ball-playing centre-back. but that has been refuted by the Manchester Evening News, who insist that Stones is at City to stay.

Nathan Ake has been one of the few bright spots for Bournemouth this term and does have a buy-back clause in his contract that could see him return to old side Chelsea for as little as €35m. That though, say Sky Sports, will not be happening, as Frank Lampard is already happy with his defensive options.

Fake News 😡

The Daily Star are reporting that Manchester United transfer chief Ed Woodward was spotted on the Eurostar this week travelling to Lille, further fuelling speculation that the club are in for Lille midfielder Boubakary Soumare – or he could just be off on his holidays. Who can possibly say?

Fantasy Football 💫

Edinson Cavani looks like he could be on his way to Atlético Madrid this month having fallen down the pecking order at PSG. But should the Uruguay international not go to the Wanda Metropolitano for any reason, Marca say that Alexandre Lacazette is their plan B.

Not a whole lot, it must be said. Fabio Borini to Verona, anyone?

Total spend this month: €245m
