Premier League transfer news: David de Gea, Toby Alderweireld, Danny Rose

There’s plenty of gossip for Man Utd and
Tottenham fans to digest today

One-Minute Read

Metro says United supporters are fearing the
worst about David de Gea’s future after Spain head coach Lopetegui
signed a three-year deal with the Champions League winners.

Lopetegui, who was then sacked by Spain this morning, has an
“excellent relationship” with De Gea, the Daily Mail reports, and will be “expected to
see-in a new goalkeeper at the club”.

The Manchester Evening News adds that Real believe
they can land De Gea for £100m after president Florentino Perez
accepted he will “have to smash the world transfer record [for a
goalkeeper] if he is ever to lure him to the Bernabeu”.

Could Alderweireld stay at
Tottenham?

It had looked a certainty that Toby Alderweireld would leave
Spurs after failing to agree a new contract. But despite his future
remaining unclear the Belgium defender says he could stay at
Tottenham. The 29-year-old, who has been linked with Manchester
United, said: “Why not? I have two years left on my contract. I
don’t know what is going to happen.” (The Daily Telegraph)

Rose no longer a target for United

Another Tottenham player heavily linked with a move to
Manchester United has been left-back Danny Rose. The England
defender was hoping to clinch a “dream move” to Old Trafford this
summer but it’s reported that United boss Jose Mourinho has
“shelved plans” to sign another full-back. (The Daily Telegraph)

Sandro too expensive

Left-back transfer targets are all the rage at Manchester United
it seems, but they must be affordable. Alex Sandro has long been
linked with United, but the Old Trafford club are refusing to meet
Juventus’s €60m (£53m) asking price for the Brazilian. (Daily Record)

N’Zonzi eyes move to ‘bigger’ club

French international Steven N’Zonzi says he wants to play for a
bigger club than Sevilla. The midfielder, who has been linked with

big team could be a good progression for me.” (The Sun)
