Friday's papers: Gareth Bale, Ander Herrera, Raphael Varane

Moves at the Emirates, Old Trafford and Goodison Park make headlines.

What the papers say

Arsenal are looking to make a last-minute attempt to sign Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera on a free transfer this summer before he agrees a move to Ligue 1 giants Paris St Germain, the Daily Express says.

A potential arrival at Old Trafford could come in the form of Marseille goalkeeper Amadou Dia, the Metro reports. The 20-year-old is currently in the reserve side of the nine-time champions.

Other goalkeepers who could be on the move include Nick Pope and Joe Hart, who could both be on their way out of Burnley after the Premier League side said they would be open to offers.

Manchester United may be interested in signing Everton and Senegal midfielder Idrissa Gueye over the summer, the Manchester Evening News reports.
