Real Madrid plan City raid for Aguero
Real Madrid are fighting to overturn their transfer ban with the intention of making a move for Manchester City hit man Sergio Aguero, according to the Mirror.
Los Merengues are also monitoring Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who was disciplined by his club for an internal matter, meaning the Gabonese missed Wednesday's 1-0 Champions League victory over Sporting.
Pep Guardiola dropped the Argentinian striker for City's Champions League match at the Camp Nou, sparking speculation over his future over the last few weeks.
With three-and-a-half years to run on his deal and the Spaniard reintegrating the former Atletico forward back into his side since, the European champions would face a tough task to prize him away from the Etihad.
John Terry offered mega-deal to move to China
Chelsea captain John Terry will have a big call to make on his future as his current deal expires next summer given the potential, as the Mail reports, of a lucrative offer from Guangzhou Evergrande.
Terry can expect a huge £8 million-per-season deal if he does join the booming Chinese Super League.
Guangzhou are confident of landing the 35-year-old, as he is an ambassador for the club already and would be familiar with current boss Luis Felipe Scolari after his time with the Blues.
Chelsea and Roma join race for Fiorentina ace
Milan Badelj is a wanted man and Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Chelsea and Roma will now rival Milan for the Fiorentina midfielder.
The 27-year-old has a year to run on his contract from next summer and could become available at a knock-down price.
The Viola are looking for just €10 million to recoup some value in the Croatian defensive midfielder, who could perfectly suit Antonio Conte's 3-4-3 system.
Hammers to hand Kone relegation escape
Sunderland centre-back Lamine Kone could be set for a January escape from his precarious battle to avoid relegation, with the Mirror linking West Ham with a move.
Everton, who fell short with a move in the summer, may also reignite their interest to boost Ronald Koeman's defence.
Since the Black Cats resisted offers for the want-away Ivorian though, David Moyes has seen the 27-year-old's form nose dive, which could ease their stance at the negotiating table.
Tap-ins
- Southampton are planning to beat a host of big clubs in the race for Atalanta's super talent Franck Kessie, according to the Mirror.
Claude Puel's side will have to beat off Arsenal, Schalke, Monaco, Napoli and Juventus for the 19-year-old Ivorian.
- Juventus sent scouts to watch Porto star Andre Silva in the Champions League match against Club Brugge, according to Portuguese publication A Bola.
The Bianconeri could look to bolster their midfield with the Portuguese international, though the Dragoes hold the cards with the 20-year-old tied to the club until 2021.
