What the papers say
Aston Villa, Newcastle and Brighton are all keeping an eye on England midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, according to The Daily Mail. The 29-year-old’s contract at Liverpool expires in the summer.
The Daily Star says Leeds United are keen on bringing Kalvin Phillips, 27, back to Elland Road. The England midfielder has had limited chances since moving to Manchester City in the summer.
Norway striker Erling Haaland, 22, will be offered a new deal worth £500,000 a week to stay at Manchester City. The Sun says the move is aimed at staving off interest from Real Madrid.
