What the papers say
Arsenal and Tottenham could be ready to target Manchester United’s Eric Bailly come the January transfer widow, the Mirror reports. The Ivory Coast defender may be heading for the exit door at Old Trafford after finding himself on the substitutes’ bench of late, with the London rivals watchful of his next move, the paper says.
Paris St-Germain’s Adrien Rabiot looks to be in high demand, the Express says, with Manchester City, Tottenham, Barcelona and Juventus all said to be interested in the 23-year-old. The midfielder is in the final year of his contract in Paris, putting the clubs on alert to a possible free transfer next year.
