Report shares why American readying £350m bid is quiet on his Newcastle interest – originally posted on Sportslens.com According to the Daily Mirror, American businessman Henry Mauriss is still prepared to step in and buy Newcastle United if Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund’s £300 million bid is rejected by the English Premier League.

Media tycoon Mauriss is said to be readying a rival bid and is willing to meet Mike Ashley’s original asking price of £350 million. The American is yet to comment on his i...

Report: Mourinho is pushing Spurs to sign 22-yr-old playmaker who will cost just £8.9m

Tottenham are keen on signing the Marseille midfielder Maxime Lopez this summer. As per reports (via Football London), Jose Mourinho is pushing Spurs to sign the player. Lopez is not a key member of Marseille’s starting lineup and he should be relatively easier to sign. The midfielder is valued at £8.9m and that seems like a very reasonable price for a player of his ability. The 22-year-old is quite talented and he could develop into a good player for Mourinho with time. He has 3 assists to his name this season despite making only 13 starts. Lopez can play as a central midfielder as well as a wide player. He is a very good passer who will help Spurs control the tempo of the game. The midfielder is good with set pieces as well and that will add a new dimension to Tottenham’s attack. Marseil...

Report claims Rangers are in talks to sign highly talented attacker this summer

Rangers are interested in signing the Blackpool starlet Tony Weston. As per Football Insider, the Ibrox outfit have already opened talks to sign the player. It will be interesting to see if they can agree on a deal with his club. The 16-year-old is highly talented and he has already played for Blackpool’s first team.

Weston cannot sign a professional deal with Blackpool until September, when he turns 17. Rangers will be hoping to lure him to Scotland before that as it would cost less. Scottish clubs are allowed to offer professional terms to players aged 16 and Rangers will want to make the most of th...

Report: Everton looking to sign 28-yr-old defender who is available on a bargain

Everton are interested in signing the Sassuolo defender Gian Marco Ferrari. According to Calciomercato, the 28-year-old defender is a target for Roma and Napoli as well. It will be interesting to see if Everton make their move for the player in the coming months. The player could be signed for a fee of around €10m this summer because Sassuolo are under financial stress due to the current health crisis. Everton can certainly afford the reported fee and Gian Marco Ferrari could prove to be a bargain for that amount. The report adds that Everton and Carlo Ancelotti admire the player and the asking price is certainly within their reach. Everton need to tighten up at the back and the 28-year-old could be a decent partner for Yerry Mina or Keane next season. If the Toffees come forward with a go...

Wolves receive boost in their pursuit of Man Utd-linked forward, Nuno almost signed him last summer

Wolves tried to sign Danny Loader from Reading last summer. According to Birmingham Mail, the Premier League side have now been given the green light to sign the player this summer. Reading are prepared to sell him and Manchester United are interested as well. It will be interesting to see if Wolves can get their man this time. They were very close to signing him last summer. The 19-year-old even agreed terms with Wolves before the move collapsed. Wolves have an exciting project and that should appeal to Loader. There is no reason why they cannot sign the player in the coming weeks. Furthermore, Wolves have a good chance of playing in Europe next season and Loader will be tempted to be a part of Nuno’s group. The Molineux outfit should look to move quickly and secure the transfer. If Manch...

Report: Hammers hoping to land £40m French midfielder ahead of PSG and Italian giants

According to le10sport, West Ham United are interested in bringing Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko to the London Stadium this summer, with a loan move on the cards. The France international has spent the last two seasons away from Stamford Bridge and he isn’t in manager Frank Lampard’s plans for next term. Bakayoko has two more years left on his current deal and Chelsea are ready to sell him for £31 million, but suitors, including AS Monaco where he spent the just-concluded French campaign, aren’t interested in meeting their demands. Paris Saint-Germain and AC Milan (where he spent 2018-19 on loan) are also interested in his services, and West Ham are looking to pip the duo to his signature. David Moyes’ side could be without the in-demand Declan Rice next season, and they are looking ...

Report: Rangers want former PL forward, Gerrard keen on Belgian winger as well

Rangers are interested in improving their attacking options this summer. As per reports (via Daily Record), they have identified Saido Berahino and Manuel Benson as targets. The Ibrox outfit have Alfredo Morelos as their star striker but the Colombian has been linked with a move away from the club this summer. To be fair to Morelos, he has proven himself time and again in Scotland and a player of his ability needs to make a step up now. He is good enough to play for a better team and it will be interesting to see if he gets a move in the coming months. Perhaps Berahino and Benson would be his replacements. It remains to be seen how the summer unfolds for Rangers. They will be hoping to keep their stars and bring in new players so that they can challenge Celtic for the title next season. Be...

As per Le 10 Sport, the player is valued at around €15m and it will be interesting to see if the Toffees make their move for him. The Premier League outfit have made an enquiry for Bouanga already. Everton can certainly afford the asking price and Carlo Ancelotti could use more attacking depth. Bouanga has done well in France this season and he has 12 goals to his name. Those numbers could certainly improve when he is playing with better players. Everton could prove to be the ideal move for him right now. He will add goals and assists to the side and someone like Ancelotti could improve him as a player. It will be interesting to see where Bouanga ends up this summer. Everton aren’t the only ones after him. Re...

Report: Newcastle looking to snap up highly rated defender on a massive bargain this summer

Newcastle have been linked with a move for the Nice defender Malang Sarr. According to Fotospor, the Magpies are keeping tabs on the 21-year-old and they could make a move for him soon. Sarr will be out of contract at the end of June and he could be snapped up on a free transfer. The Ligue 1 prospect is highly talented and it would be quite a coup if Newcastle managed to sign him on a free. It would be a tremendous bargain for them. Sarr has the potential to develop into a first team star for them. It will be interesting to see who comes in as Newcastle’s manager this summer. If they can attract the likes of Pochettino or Benitez, Sarr will certainly be tempted to join them. He would benefit from working under top class managers like that.

Both clubs could use a quality young keeper like Gollini and it will be interesting to see if they make their move for the 25-year-old in the coming weeks. Gollini has played for Villa before and he will know all about the club. However, the Premier League side are fighting for their survival and if they fail to stay up, it would be hard for them to sign someone like Gollini.

Illan Meslier could replace the Spaniard next season. Meslier managed to impress during his loan spell with the Whites this season. Hillson is quite talented as well and it is no su...

Report: Mourinho chasing La Liga ace, Spurs might have to pay around £53m

Tottenham have been linked with the Real Betis forward earlier this summer. It seems that they are not ready to abandon the chase just yet. As per La Razón, Jose Mourinho wants to sign the La Liga attacker. Moron has scored 11 goals for Betis so far this season and he could prove to be a decent addition for the Londoners. Spurs have done well to improve their creativity with the signings of Lo Celso and Bergwijn this summer but they need to add more goalscorers to their side. Currently, Kane is the only reliable goalscorer at the club. For a club wishing to challenge for the title and the Champions League, that is simply not enough. Jose Mourinho will know the importance of adding more goals to his side and it will be interesting to see if Levy is willing to back his manager in the ma...
