‘Come back with something better’ – 54-cap international reacts to Celtic’s offer
Celtic keeper Craig Gordon has urged the club to improve their contract offer if they want to hold on to him beyond this summer. His contract expires soon and the Hoops have offered him an extension. However, the player doesn’t feel the offer is up to the mark. He has also revealed that he is holding transfer talks with other clubs. Gordon has already spoken to St Mirren regarding a move. Gordon said (quotes via Daily Record): “With Celtic, the ball is in their court. They’ve made an offer but they know they’ll need to come back with something better. My contract has lapsed and I’m free to talk to anybody. That’s what I intend to do over the next few weeks. “St Mirren have made me a good offer and other clubs have also been in touch. As things stand I haven’t closed the door on anybody. Ji...
Report: Spurs feel they would have won the title in 2017 had they signed Liverpool star
According to The Athletic, Tottenham Hotspur feel they would have won the English Premier League title in the 2016-2017 season had they got Liverpool winger Sadio Mane in the summer of 2016. Spurs wanted to land the Senegal international and were confident they could strike a deal with Southampton. Tottenham’s former head of recruitment Paul Mitchell had brought Mane to Saint Mary’s from Red Bull Salzburg and was looking to reunite with him at North London. The Liverpool star’s versatility, athleticism and outstanding performances for Southampton made him appealing to Spurs, but Reds outbid them, coming in with an offer of a £34 million and wages of around £90,000 a week. Jurgen Klopp has always had his eyes on Mane since his days as Borussia Dortmund manager, and Liverpool ensured t...
Report shares why Spurs once opted against signing Virgil Van Dijk
According to The Athletic, Tottenham Hotspur had Liverpool centre-back Virgil Van Dijk on their target list in the summer of 2015 before moving for Toby Alderweireld. The Dutchman was at Celtic at the time and did end up replacing the Belgian at Southampton, but he could have been at Spurs if chairman Daniel Levy had failed to land Alderweireld. Van Dijk was the next name on the list of Levy’s centre-back targets behind the Belgium international, and Tottenham still kept an eye on him at Saint Mary’s. The 28-year-old was on the radar of the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City just after two seasons in England, and he ended up joining Liverpool for £75 million in January 2018 Van Dijk has since helped the Reds to the Champions League title and is a huge reason why they are just a few poi...
Report: EPL giants Mourinho allegedly wants their defender don’t negotiate with Spurs over transfers
According to The Athletic, London rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea still refuse to negotiate with each other over transfers after the Blues hijacked Spurs deal for Willian in 2013. The Brazilian winger had done and passed a medical with Spurs, only for him to join Chelsea at the last minute. Willian is set to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season after seven years and has been linked with a move to Tottenham, with boss Jose Mourinho eyeing a reunion. It remains to be seen if that is on the cards, though, but the Portuguese is reportedly interested in signing another Chelsea player – Kurt Zouma – and it will be interesting to see if both sides will finally agree to do business. According to RMC Sport, Tottenham are keeping tabs on the Frenchman ahead of the summer transfer wind...
Report claims Ancelotti has marked 22-yr-old attacker as a target for Everton
Everton are being linked with a move for Cengiz Under this summer. The Toffees have been linked with the Roma winger for a while now and it will be interesting to see if they make their move for the player anytime soon. As per Corriere dello Sport (via Sportwitness), Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti has marked him as a potential target and the player will cost around €30m. The Merseyside outfit could use another winger in their side and Under could prove to be a decent addition. The Turkish international has the talent to develop into a quality first team player but he needs experience and coaching. Ancelotti is a world class manager and he could be the one to bring out the best in him. Under is hardly a star at Roma and therefore a move to Everton could appeal to him. The Toffees have an a...
Pundit explains how Chelsea’s Timo Werner transfer will benefit Tottenham this summer
Former Tottenham striker and pundit Darren Bent has now explained how Chelsea’s decision to sign Timo Werner will benefit Spurs. As per Bent, the prices are more reasonable now due to the Coronavirus crisis and clubs will not be able to demand exorbitant fees for their players. Getting a player of Werner’s caliber for £53m is proof that the market is likely to be more affordable and that will help Spurs sign their own targets. He said to Football Insider: “Everyone’s going to be thinking about transfers but when you look that Chelsea have been able to nip in and get Werner for around £50million, I do think this whole pandemic and period is going to bring transfers back down to earth. “I think we were seeing way too high a price paid for players that quite frankly weren’t worth it for that ...
Report: West Ham preparing an offer for 24-yr-old forward, star could cost £18m
West Ham are keen on signing the Amiens forward Serhou Guirassy this summer. As per L’Equipe, Rennes are keen on the player as well and the Hammers will have to move quickly to secure his services. The report further claims that West Ham are preparing an offer for the forward. The Hammers could use some depth in their attack and Guirassy would be ideal for them. The 24-year-old Amiens forward has 9 Ligue 1 goals to his name this season and those numbers are likely to improve once he plays for a better side. West Ham could use someone like him alongside Haller next season. Guirassy is a powerful target man who will improve the Hammers aerially and he will hold up the ball to bring others into the game. His arrival would give Moyes the chance to use a different tactical approach if needed. A...
Report: Club demanding for more than £23m for 23-goal striker Spurs & Everton want
According to HLN, AA Gent are demanding for more than £23 million for the signature of striker Jonathan David after Manchester United and Arsenal have held informal talks with his agent Nick Mavromaras. Everton are also keeping tabs on the Canadian forward, while Tottenham Hotspur have been linked too. Liverpool, Ajax, Inter Milan, and FC Porto are also interested in David ahead of the summer transfer window, and that doesn’t come as a surprise following his incredible campaign for the Belgian top-flight outfit. However, none of the suitors has made any formal offer so far, and Spurs and the Toffees could still have a chance if they act fast. The 20-year-old scored 18 goals in 27 league games and added five more in 13 games across other competitions for Gent before the campaign ended abrup...

According to L’Équipe (via GFFN), Wolverhampton Wanderers have submitted a £13.5 million offer for Reims centre-back Axel Disasi as boss Nuno Espirito Santo looks to strengthen his backline ahead of next season. The French youngster is also wanted in North London, with both Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal keeping tabs on him. Disasi is also wanted by Bundesliga and La Liga sides after helping Reims achieve the best defensive record (21 goals conceded) in the Ligue 1 in 2019-20 and the second-best across Europe’s top-five leagues. Southampton have also been linked with the 22-year-old, and it appears a move to the Premier League could happen. Despite Wolves’ attempt to beat both Spurs and the Gunners to Disasi’s signature, they are yet to meet Reims’ demands as the club are holding out for £1...
Man Utd begin talks for 25-yr-old, former Red Devils ace claims he ‘will be perfect’ for them
Manchester United are interested in signing the Bayern Munich midfielder Corentin Tolisso. The Red Devils could do with some reinforcements in the central midfield and Tolisso would be ideal. He is still quite young and Solskjaer could help him achieve his potential at Old Trafford. Manchester United star Paul Pogba has been linked with a move away from the club this summer and if he decides to move on, the club will need to bring in a replacement. Although Tolisso is not as good as Pogba right now, he has the potential to develop into a top class player. It will be interesting to see if the Red Devils can agree on a fee with Bayern Munich now. The German giants might not be keen on selling the midfielder and United will have to put in a tempting offer. As per Mohamed Bouhafsi, the 25-year...

Everton midfielder Fabian Delph could miss next week’s Merseyside Derby. As per reports, the £80,000-a-week midfielder has picked up a muscle strain and he will return to training next week. It is likely that Delph will be lacking in match fitness even if he recovers in time for the game against Liverpool. It will be interesting to see how Carlo Ancelotti’s team copes in his absence. Everton will be hoping to delay Liverpool’s title party with a good result at home. The Reds need two more wins to clinch a long-awaited title. If City lose their next game, Liverpool might be able to clinch the title at Goodison Park and the Toffees will be desperate to avoid that situation. As for Delph, he has proven to be a good signing for Everton when he has been fit. He will be hoping to get over his in...
