- Manchester United open talks for £69m-rated forward
- Liverpool plotting to generate £100m from transfers
- Arsenal are on the hunt for their first summer signings
- Chelsea have made a decision on Higuain's future
Aubameyang and Lacazette are staying at Arsenal
Aubameyang and Lacazette to Real Madrid and Barcelona ruled out
Arsenal will successfully keep strike duo Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette out of the clutches of Real Madrid and Barcelona this summer.
That's according to La Liga expert Guilleme Balague, who was responding to rumours linking both forwards with moves away from the Emirates.
"Nope," he said on his YouTube channel. "Neither of them is seriously wanted by either club.
"They are both top players of course, but they aren't chasing either of them.
"So Arsenal will have their top strikers for another season at least."
Real Madrid could be set to pursue Mohamed Salah as well as Eden Hazard
Hazard AND Salah to Real Madrid?
Real Madrid are said to have made early approaches for Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah as their overhaul continues.
Eden Hazard, though, is Real’s No.1 target with the club in talks over a fee for the Chelsea forward.
But Canal Plus journalist Philippe Carayon has been asked whether there could be another ‘Galactic’ addition after Hazard this summer.
He claimed: “We are at the stage of the first approaches between Real Madrid and Mohamed Salah.”
Marcus Rashford is one of the strikers Barcelona are tracking
Barcelona still tracking Rashford, Lacazette and Aubameyang
Barcelona are keeping tabs on Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford, as well as Arsenal strikers Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette.
The La Liga champions are ensuring that they are fully prepared in the event that their propsed deal for Antoine Griezmann falls through.
Mundo Deportivo report that Rashford, Aubameyang and Lacazette are now on the La Liga's champions hit-list due to one shared asset.
Each Premier League front man is highly versatile and can comfortably operate anywhere along the forward line.
Arsenal target Zaha back at Man Utd?
Wilfried Zaha is prepared to re-join Manchester United if they bid this summer.
Crystal Palace are reluctant to sell their star winger and have put a whopping £100m price-tag on him.
As a result, Arsenal have been priced out of the market for the 26-year-old, who wants Champions League football.
United failed to qualify but are in the Europa League, looking for a wide attacker and have the money available.
United are monitoring Zaha’s situation and there is a sense the Palace man has unfinished business at Old Trafford, according to The Telegraph.
Wilfried Zaha is open to a Man Utd return
Liverpool transfer plan
Liverpool are planning to raise £100m by clearing the deadwood from their squad.
According to the Liverpool Echo, Anfield bosses have already received approaches for their players returning from loan spells.
The likes of Marko Grujic, Harry Wilson, Nathaniel Clyne and Ryan Kent could all be sold if Jurgen Klopp decides their futures lie elsewhere.
Simon Mignolet, Rafa Camacho, Taiwo Awoniyi, Sheyi Ojo and Ovie Ejaria are also set to depart on a permanent basis.
