United pip Chelsea for Felipe
Manchester United’s last experience of signing a highly-rated Brazilian named Anderson proved so successful they’re at it again.
The Star reckon United are sweet on Lazio’s Felipe Anderson and are ready to make their move.
They face competition from Chelsea but will bid £30m to fend off the Premier League champions.
Dani the champion off to Milan
Another Brazilian who was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford may be heading to Serie A instead.
Dani Alves wasted no time in expressing an admiration for AC Milan following Saturday’s Champions League triumph.
The veteran defender is available on a free transfer, and his astronomical wages are part-way justifiable if Antonio Valencia is your first-choice rightback.
City go native with Raheem
The Manchester Evening News are talking up the chances of the out-of-sorts Raheem Sterling joining Manchester City.
The main driver for the Etihad club isn’t the winger’s lightening speed or tricksy footwork, but his passport.
The MEN claim another ‘home-grown’ player within City’s ranks is imperative to satisfy UEFA rules and little Englander Sterling is that man.
