Football transfer rumours: Chelsea and Manchester United battle for Kolo Muani?

It is very difficult to find a top quality No 9 in the game and with Paris Saint-Germain's Randal Kolo Muani available, a fun three-way battle could be heading the way of rumourmongers. Juventus have already had a bid rejected, although they are expected to return with a second offer. While they are crunching the numbers, Manchester United and Chelsea may sneak in with a superior financial package and steal the France international from under the Old Lady's nose. João Felix is on his way out of Chelsea after making absolutely no impact at the club for a second time, leaving many to wonder why they bothered signing him in the first place. It looked as if he was heading back to his boyhood club Benfica but Al Nassr have stepped in with a €50m bid to lure the benchwarmer to Saudi Arabia, where he will join his international colleague Cristiano Ronaldo at the club. Even though James Trafford is readying himself for a Manchester City medical, there is a rumour swirling that Pep Guardiola might even fancy a third new goalkeeper of the summer, with Marcus Bettinelli already in the building. The latest name to be linked with the Etihad Stadium is Gianluigi Donnarumma of Paris Saint-Germain. If City are in fact interested in the Italian, they might need to battle bitter rivals Manchester United for his services, as Ruben Amorim really needs a new face between the sticks. It will cost someone absolutely nothing – bar wages, etc – to bring in Dominic Calvert-Lewin, which might explain why Aston Villa, Milan and Newcastle are all rather keen on snapping up the striker. Xabi Alonso is looking to perform a clearout at Real Madrid. At most clubs, this means getting rid of some right carthorses but when it comes to the Spanish giants, the list would make most people weep. Rodrygo is top of the list, and the latest team interested in the Brazilian winger are Tottenham, having missed out on Morgan Gibbs-White. Arsenal and Liverpool might also be convinced to make an offer for him. If Rodrygo does not float your boat, Endrick, David Alaba, Dani Ceballos and Ferland Mendy are also set to be made available. All the talk was of a West Ham move for Leicester's Mads Hermansen but supposedly the East Midlands club want too much cash to part with the stopper. It leaves Graham Potter in a bit of a pickle but there is a plan B on the horizon, coming in the form of Sheffield United's Michael Cooper, who proved his quality in the Championship last season and might be confident he can step up tothe Premier League. One potential incoming at Bramall Lane is the Everton midfielder Tim Iroegbunam. Rubén Sellés is eager to add some extra quality in the middle of the park and the former Aston Villa man might be keen on playing more regularly.

The former France international spent three years playing in the Potteries during a glorious Premier League era and, aged 36, wants to relive those days.
