EDINSON CAVANI

Wanted man: PSG star Cavani.

Man United and Chelsea are set to battle it out to sign the £53m-rated (Dh270m) Paris-Saint-Germain striker, according Le Parisien.

The Uruguayan is said to feel unsettled in the French capital following the arrival of Neymar in August.

The 31-year-old, who has spent nearly five seasons at the Parc des Princes, is ready for a new challenge with those at Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge keen on securing his services.

Cavani has been in stunning from this season, scoring 33 goals in 38 in all competitions for Unai Emery’s side.

N’GOLO KANTE

Marathon man in the middle: Kante.

Paris-Saint-Germain have made the Blues star one of their primary summer targets, Canal+ report.

The Ligue 1 leaders, who were knocked out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage to Real Madrid last week, want Kante to bolster their midfield as they attempt an assault on Europe’s premier competition next season.

The 26-year-old Frenchman has developed into one of the best defensive midfielders in the world and would be available for a fee in the region of £35m (Dh178m), though the Stamford Bridge club would take some convincing to sell him.

MAX MEYER

Arsenal have made the Schalke midfielder a top target, according to Daily Star.

The 22-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and is expected to leave Arena AufSchalke, with Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona also expressing an interest in the German international.

Dubbed the new Toni Kroos, Meyer is a versatile midfielder who can play anywhere through the centre of the park – as well as perform with equal measure on the flank.

Meyer is set to end his nine-season stay with Schalke by turning down their second offer of a lucrative new long-term deal.
