JEAN MICHAEL SERI

Chelsea are prepared to bid £35m (Dh 183.7m) for the highly-rated Nice midfielder, according to the Mirror.

The 26-year-old’s release clause is considered to be around £33m (Dh 173.2m), but the price could be well worth it for Antonio Conte to replenish his midfield this summer, especially after only winning just four Premier League games in 2018.

Seri also attracted the attention of Barcelona, Arsenal and Man United last year, but the Blues appear to be keen as they’re monitoring ongoing developments.

HARRY MAGUIRE

Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham have been told to fork-out at least £50m for the Leicester star, The Sun claims.

Leicester’s original blueprint for the future was to build a new-look team around the 25-year-old, who they consider a future captain at the King Power Stadium with the potential to push and lead the Foxes back to glory.

One of the hottest defensive properties in European football, Maguire has the passing game, intelligence and strength to bolster any back line.

BRUNO FERNANDES

Arsenal and Liverpool are set to battle it out over the star Sporting midfield, A Bola claims.

The Portuguese international has been closely monitored by scouts over recent months and Jurgen Klopp is reportedly keen to submit a formal bid for his services.

The 23-year-old has impressed this season, scoring 14 goals and providing 12 assists in all competitions.

He also scored a late winner in a 4-3 win over Belenenses at the weekend, ensuring his side kept alive their hopes of a first Primeira Liga title since 2002.
