A battle for a Villarreal star and management moves in Manchester make the papers.

What the papers say

Manchester United are set to sign Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on a permanent contract during the international break, the Daily Mirror reports. The paper says the Norwegian is the only name in the running for the job after impressing since his return to Old Trafford in December.

In the blue half of Manchester, and Ilkay Gundogan is looking for a new challenge, reports the Mirror. The Germany midfielder could be sold by City in the summer as his contract runs out after the 2019-20 campaign.

Zinedine Zidane has been promised £300million to spend in the summer after his return to Real Madrid, with Eden Hazard and Christian Eriksen on the wishlist, says the Independent.
