Premier League club to make huge bid for Isco

Don Balon has reported that Liverpool are the latest club to sit up and take notice of Isco's recent performances for Real Madrid. The Spanish attacker has sprung into life in recent months and is playing with an intent to prove his worth to manager Zinedine Zidane. Jurgen Klopp sees Isco as a potential replacement for Philippe Coutinho who might leave for FC Barcelona in the summer. The Spaniard will cost around £40 million for the Reds.

Barcelona have been linked with Verratti for months

 

The Catalans are rumoured to be interested in signing a midfielder for the next season with Mundo Deportivo now reporting that Barcelona club members have earmarked Marco Verratti as their main target. The 24-year-old has long been a target for Barcelona and might make the move this time around after the Parisians' shambolic performance in the Champions League. Verratti will cost around £60 million as Paris Saint-Germain are known to be tough customers when it comes to selling their top players.

Bender is wanted by Arsenal

 

Tuttomercatoweb reports that Arsene Wenger wants to add a solid midfielder to his already crowded midfield at Arsenal. Though big in numbers, Arsenal's midfield has failed to deliver with the likes of Granit Xhaka and Francis Coquelin flopping big time. The Gunners want a defensive midfielder for the next season and the club believe that Sven Bender of Borussia Dortmund fits the bill perfectly. He is a versatile player who can also play as a centre-back and will cost around £25 million.

Fabregas might leave the Bridge in the summer

The Rossoneri are planning a major overhaul in the summer. Cesc Fabregas is the latest player to be linked with the Serie A giants as they look to get back on the world map. Fabregas might leave Chelsea if promised a bigger role at San Siro as it will be a major attraction for the Spaniard after seeing his game time get reduced under Antonio Conte.
