Declan Rice and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are also being talked about.

What the papers say

Paris St Germain are getting ambitious with their wishlist, with the Ligue 1 side holding out for a new marquee signing of either Paul Pogba or Cristiano Ronaldo, according to the Daily Mirror.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is said to be eager to land a new striker over the summer, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin fits the bill, according to the Sun. The 24-year-old scored 16 goals in 33 appearances last season for Everton.

Declan Rice's future at West Ham looks uncertain with the midfielder having rejected two contracts with the Hammers, amid potential interest from Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City, writes the Guardian.

After wrapping up the deal for Jadon Sancho, Manchester United will immediately turn their attention to signing centre-back Raphael Varane who is currently on the books of Real Madrid, reports the Daily Star.

Everton and Arsenal will tussle for the signature of Brighton's Ben White, with the Gunners already having seen two bids for the 23-year-old rejected, according to the Daily Mail.
