English Premier League outfit Man United have weighed their options ahead of the coming summer transfer window and have decided to dump their interest in Leicester City defender Harry Maguire to move in for Tottenham’s Toby Alderweireld.

The Red Devils are keen on a new central defender and have been told they will have to pay £90 million for the Leicester City defender but there is a better deal that could make good use of other options with a more reduced fee.

• Chelsea Defender Hints At Hazard Stay

The Guardian reports that a price tag of £25 million has been placed on Toby Alderweireld to have him leave in the coming summer transfer window which is a better deal for the Red Devils.

More so, it is suggested that Toby Alderweireld has got more to offer to the Red Devils in terms of quality and experience which make the Leicester City man a no deal.

However, a bid is expected to be submitted for Toby Alderweireld as Man United are now ready to meet with the asking price in the summer window.

Meanwhile, it is suggested that Leicester City opted for the £90 million price tag for Harry Maguire so as to have suitors away from him.

German international Mesut Ozil has not taken into consideration all of the controversies concerning him as far as the season is concerned as he is bent on working with the Unai Emery team and fighting for his shirt.

The start of the season was challenging to the former Real Madrid star as he was charged by the Gunners manager Unai Emery to do more for the team so as to justify his huge pay. He was later left on the bench for a couple of games which ensured he was linked away from the club.

In his response, Mesut Ozil made it clear that he would remain at the Emirates Stadium and give his best not minding what happens.

• Arsenal told why they will regret over this transfer decision

The commitment of the former World Cup winner is again showcased as he is reported to have trained with the team in Dubai over the weekend in continuation of his resolve to win the heart of the Spanish manager.

The North London outfit had gone out to Dubai on Friday for a warm-weather camp and visited the Zabeel Palace to meet Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum as they prepare for the return to a Premier League top four fight with a Monday night game against Newcastle.

Juventus star player Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly given a transfer request to the club chiefs to secure the signature of his former teammate and Real Madrid star Raphael Varane ahead of the coming summer transfer window.

A Spanish publication SPORT claims that the Portuguese international is willing to unite with the Frenchman and has told the club to do all in their power to secure the signature of the 25-year-old.

Raphael Varane has been impressive for the La Liga outfit over the years but recent development hints that he is unhappy at the club and will consider a move away from the club should he receive a luring offer.

• Giroud Salary Too High For French Suitors

However, the request by Cristiano Ronaldo to land Raphael Varane has unsettled English Premier League outfit Man United as they are also linked with the player and are willing to finalize a deal in the summer as well.

Raphael Varane has been on United’s wish list for a long time with their former boss Jose Mourinho making efforts to land him but was unsuccessful.

Now that the club’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward seems to be interested in the deal, they now face competition from the Italian side and they might not be able to match them in terms of financial strength.

North London outfit Arsenal have been encouraged in their pursuit of Italian Serie A outfit AC Milan star Franck Kessie as they are reported to be willing to cash in on him for other transfer deals.

AC Milan needs to make the signature of Chelsea player Tiemoue Bakayoko permanent at the San Siro as he is currently on a loan deal which is the reason why they seek to have Franck Kessie sold to any club that is ready to meet with his asking price.

The North London outfit have been linked with the star player as they hope to have him as a replacement for Wales international Aaron Ramsey who is already on his way out of the club to join the Italian Serie A champions Juventus at the end of the season after agreeing to a four-year deal with the club.

There is, therefore, a need to have Aaron Ramsey replaced at the club and Franck Kessie has been identified as a perfect player for the replacement.

However, the North London outfit are being discouraged by the fact that AC Milan are asking for a $40 million fee for the star player which seems too big for the Gunners to pay.

It has been reported that Man United interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has prepared preparations ahead of the coming season with the hope that he would be handed the job at the Old Trafford on a permanent deal.

The Red Devils are in search of a permanent manager following the sack of Jose Mourinho in December and the interim boss have been tipped to be announced any moment from now as he has impressed with the little time he had with the club.

However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is reported to be seeking the move of some players away from the Old Trafford because he does not have any need for them and wants them replaced.

• Arsenal target suspended by club, see reasons

The former Red Devils forward has therefore identified Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho as is the first target, now that he has watched the 18-year-old impress with the England national team in addition to the strides he has made in the German Bundesliga.

Also, Napoli player Kalidou Koulibaly has been named as another player who is needed by Solskjaer because of his strength and his experience in the defence.

Moreover, Sporting Lisbon star Bruno Fernandes has been identified as a player who will come in for Ander Herrera who is set to leave the club.

Emerging reports have confirmed that Spanish left fullback Nacho Monreal would be leaving the Emirates Stadium at the end of the season for Spain.

It is claimed that he is interesting LA Liga giants Barcelona but where he would be heading is still unsure as there is no doubt that he has a lot of offers in Spain.

Nacho Monreal was already being linked away from the club since the last winter transfer window with the suggestions that he would move on but that did not happen as no tangible offer was submitted for his signature.

• Mertesacker makes incredible revelation about Arsenal Academy

However, it is claimed that the North London outfit have no intention of keeping the Spanish defender by renewing his contract which means he is only having his last days as an Arsenal player.

This, therefore, means that the North London outfit will make efforts to land a replacement for the defender as they plan to engage in the coming summer transfer window.

Nacho Monreal has not been much on ground for the Gunners this season, having missed a number of games due to the injury he sustained.

Suggestions are that he would end up at Camp Nou as Barcelona seeks to have an option in the left back position.
