Man Utd and battle for €80m star
Manchester United and Liverpool are going head to head for Porto star Luis Diaz, according to reports.
The Colombian has been racking up the goals in Portugal, hitting 13 already this season.
His form has caught the attention of Premier League heavyweights United, Liverpool and Manchester City.
United possess an advantage over the Reds, with a strong Portuguese contingent at Old Trafford.
SAPO Desporto claim the 24-year-old has an €80m (£68m) price tag.
Conte reluctant to speak on refereeing decisions despite ‘clear handball’
Arsenal eye Juve winger
Arsenal are considering a January swoop for Juventus winger Dejan Kulusevski.
The 21-year-old Sweden international only joined the Turin side this time last year, but he has endured a frustrating season under Massimiliano Allegri, failing to nail down a place in his starting XI.
Now it seems the Gunners are preparing to swoop for the wideman, who cost the Old Lady £31.5million last January.
Wilshere backs Ramsey for Newcastle United
Jack Wilshere has tipped his former Arsenal team-mate Aaron Ramsey to be a good fit for Newcastle United.
Now awash with cash, the Magpies are set for a busy January transfer window as they look to avoid Premier League relegation.
Ramsey is understood to be free to leave Juventus next month, with the Serie A side keen to get his mammoth wages off the books.
Wilshere, speaking on talkSPORT, said: “He would be a great signing for them. It’s a massive club, Newcastle.
“He obviously had a successful spell at Arsenal, went to Italy, he hasn’t played as much as he wanted to.
“He’s probably wanting to get back here, he’s got a young family.
“[He can go to a] big club, who are potentially going to be even bigger in the next four/five years.”
Haaland puts clubs on red alert
Erling Haaland has put Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City on red alert after appearing to wave farewell to supporters.
Following Borussia Dortmund’s 3-1 win over Furth last week, in which Haaland scored a brace, the Norwegian superstar appeared to be waving goodbye to the fans inside the Westfalenstadion.
Dortmund chief Michael Zorc told Sky Germany that he saw the gesture following his side’s defeat to Hertha Berlin this weekend: “I saw the pictures afterwards too. It looked a bit strange, but I don’t think it was a deliberate action. I spoke to him again briefly, and that’s not an issue in the team either.
“What is this? I asked him. Nothing at all, he said. That settles the matter.”
