Manchester United have been linked with huge transfer swoops for everyone from Mats Hummels to Memphis Depay this summer, but the most important name on a contract could come from one of their own
United fans have had reason to worry about the future of goalkeeper David de Gea, with Real Madrid expected to make every effort to lure the former Atletico stopper back to the Spanish capital as the long-term replacement for Iker Casillas. But reports in today’s Sun suggest De Gea is ready to spurn Los Blancos and sign a bumper new deal at Old Trafford worth £20million over two years.
Should De Gea up sticks, though, boss Louis van Gaal has lined up a move for Inter Milan stopper Samir Handanovic. The 30-year-old Slovenian has just a year left on his deal and would be seen as a capable medium-term replacement for the Spanish netminder. (Mail)
Out-of-contract Arsenal stalwarts Tomas Rosicky and Mathieu Flamini look set to be on their way out of the Emirates, with the pair yet to sign new contracts. The midfield duo have player sparingly in the second half of the season, and with reinforcements likely this summer, opportunities look thin on the ground. Mikel Arteta, though, is thought to have agreed to stay at the club for another season. (Mirror)
Liverpool are already fighting it out with Manchester United for the signature of Memphis Depay, but the Anfield club are set to beat the Red Devils to another attacker, South Korea international Son Hueng-Min. The 22-year-old has starred for Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga and would command a fee of around £15million. (Express)
With Christian Benteke likely to be on his way out of Villa Park, Tim Sherwood is already confidently spending the proceeds of the striker’s sale in his head. Scottish full-back Andrew Robertson is Sherwood’s first target, but Hull are going to make sure they get at least £12million for the 22-year-old. (Mirror)
