Alfredo Morelos to leave Rangers this summer
Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos will face Celtic for the final time tomorrow at Celtic Park, it has been claimed.
The 22-year-old has impressed at Ibrox this season, netting 29 goals and providing 11 assists in all competitions.
But Morelos will leave Rangers this summer despite signing a new contract, say Football Insider.
The forward agreed a new deal worth £35,000-a-week which expires in 2023.
But the reports claim that was just a reward for Morelos and to ensure the club maximise the transfer fee they would receive this summer.
Ander Herrera is on Arsenal radar
Arsenal are interested in signing Manchester United star Ander Herrera, according to reports.
United want Herrera to stay, albeit not at any price.
And the Daily Mail have confirmed that Arsenal are among the clubs eyeing the former Athletic Bilbao midfielder.
The Gunners will be losing Aaron Ramsey on a free transfer and will be looking for a suitable replacement.
Zinedine Zidane would welcome Paul Pogba
Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has admitted he would be interested in signing Paul Pogba.
He said: “I like Pogba a lot, it's nothing new.
“I know him personally. He's a different kind of player, he brings so much and there are few players who bring as much as he does.
“He's a midfielder who knows how to defend and how to attack. He knows how to do everything on the pitch.”
And Zidane believes if the opportunity arises Pogba would be welcomed at the Bernabeu.
The Frenchman added: “He [Pogba] is not part of my squad, he plays at United and what he's said about Real Madrid and his desire to come here, if one day he gets the chance when he wants to leave United....if, when he finishes his experience at United, he wants to come here, why shouldn't he come to Real Madrid?”
Callum Hudson-Odoi to stay at Chelsea?
Maurizio Sarri is convinced Callum Hudson-Odoi will stay at Chelsea.
Asked if he expects Hudson-Odoi to be at Chelsea next term, Sarri said: "I think so, I think so. I'm not able to say if he's going to sign a new contract or not, but I think he will stay here with us in any case.
"Probably, in the near future, he will start in 75 to 80 per cent of matches.
"He is doing very well, but he needs to improve more because the potential is really very high. And so I don't want him to stop improving.
"He can become, I think, one of the most important players in Europe."
