Man City could permanently ditch Kane pursuit (Daily Mail)
If they don't sign the striker this summer, they may never go after him again
Manchester City could give up on Harry Kane for good if they fail to land him this summer, writes the Daily Mail.
With the significantly younger Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe potentially available in 2022, they would be less tempted to return for the Tottenham striker in the future.
There is reportedly a £50 million gulf in valuations for Kane, which could prove impossible to overcome with just two weeks until the transfer deadline.
Barca consider shock Aubameyang-Coutinho swap (Sky Sports)
The idea comes even as the Catalan club has acknowledged the full reality of their financial woes
Barcelona are intrigued by the prospect of a swap deal that would bring Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Camp Nou and send Philippe Coutinho to Arsenal, according to Sky Sports.
While the Blaugrana have €1.35 billion in debt, the departure of Coutinho's wages could offset some of the price of adding Aubameyang.
Aubameyang's current contract runs until 2024, but his status with the Gunners is up in the air after a frustrating 2020-21 campaign and an absence to illness to start this season.
