Man Utd eyeing move for RB Leipzig forward

Manchester United are interested in signing highly-rated RB Leipzig forward Lois Openda next season, according to Football Insider.

Leipzig are reportedly unwilling to sell their striker in January after losing a host of star players like Christopher Nkunku, Josko Gvardiol and Dominik Szoboszlai to Premier League clubs in the summer. Openda joined the Bundesliga outfit from Lens this season for €43million (£37.1million).

Tielemans wants to leave Aston Villa

Youri Tielemans is considering leaving Aston Villa just months after joining them after he had a fallout with manager Unai Emery, according to Football Insider.

The report claims that the Belgian could consider leaving the club as early as January after failing to start in any of the club's matches thus far in this season.

Conte speaks up on Napoli links

Antonio Conte's potential move to coach Napoli has generated significant speculation, but Conte himself has remained reserved about the reports. The former Chelsea and Tottenham manager is believed to be Napoli's primary target in case they decide to replace their current coach, Rudi Garcia.

"For now I'm enjoying my family. I made a clear choice when I left England. Then you know that many things can happen along the way. Napoli? We must always have great respect and education."

Conte, 56, has been without a managerial role since leaving Tottenham in March through mutual consent after a 16-month tenure.
