If we don’t see Memphis Depay in the Premier League next season we are going to be hugely disappointed. The PSV winger is one of the hottest properties in Europe right now with a host of clubs interested.

It’s expected he’s on his way to England with Manchster United and Liverpool understood to be fighting it out for his signature and according to Dutch news site AD.nl the winger has opened talks with Old Trafford about a possible summer move.

Previously Depay has been chatting casually to PSG and Liverpool, but it seems that he has now held a formal meeting with Louis van Gaal that might put the seal on a possible €30million move this summer.

One man who could be heading for Manchester but the blue half of the city is former Old Trafford starlet Paul Pogba.

Various newspapers report this morning that if the Juventus midfielder is to leave Italy, he will cost any interested party at least €50million.

According to the Daily Mirror City are confident they will have the money to tempt Pogba back to England, but are unsure if they can stave off interest from Chelsea or Barcelona unless they add a number of other players to their squad as well.

Chelsea will know in the next fortnight if one of their key summer targets will be allowed leave for pastures new.

We’ve been raving about Paulo Dybala for ages and it seems now that Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini will make up his mind in the coming days whether to cash in on the club’s prized asset.

According to the Guardian the striker who has scored 13 times this season in Serie A, will be sold after rejecting a recent three-year contract extension at the club.

We hope for Inter Milan’s sake that they keep a big fat book of when their players birthdays are, because it seems that Yaya Toure could be on his way to Italy.

The midfielder has long been tipped to leave the Ethiad after a mixed season for Manchester City, and his massive wages are the key stumbling block to any exit.

However according to this morning’s Telegraph  the club are looking to sign the Ivorian on a free-transfer in order to afford the massive birthday cake he will be looking forward to next week.

Arsenal’s hopes of persuading Petr Cech to just move the short distance across London from Stamford Bridge look set to be scuppered by pesky Roma and Inter Milan.

The goalkeeper is widely expected to be let go from the Premier League champions this summer, with a host of clubs looking to snap up the multiple trophy winner.

Arsene Wenger was hoping that he would be the most attractive option for Cech and his family, but according to the Daily Mail it seems that the two Serie A clubs are also sniffing around the giant Czech Republic netminder.
