Raheem Sterling to Real Madrid, Bastian Schweinsteiger top of Man United's wanted list and Chelsea chasing Enner Valencia are among the rumours in Tuesday's papers.
REAL MADRID REMAIN KEEN ON STERLING SWOOP
Raheem Sterling's future is likely to dominate the gossip columns for much of the summer, until that is that the player either signs a new Liverpool deal, or moves elsewhere.
Although linked with a move to the Spanish capital before, reports in The Sun claims powerful Real Madrid supremo Jose Angel Sanchez will make an official £45million bid for the star in the 'next fortnight'.
It's claimed that Liverpool's top brass will travel to Spain for a June 14 friendly between Real and Reds legends, with Sanchez keen on face-to-face talks to thrash out a deal.
Speaking to The Sun, a Bernabeu insider is claimed to have said: "A deal for Sterling is possible. He is definitely on the agenda and a deal could happen very soon if Liverpool want to do business."
SCHWEINSTEIGER STILL UNITED'S TOP TARGET
Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger remains Man United boss Louis van Gaal's number one target this summer, according to the Daily Star.
The long-serving Bayern star, 30, could be sold by Bayern this summer for a fee as low as £10million - a price that has very much peaked LVG's interest.
The paper, however, insists that should Schweinsteiger opt to stay in with the Bavarians, then United will switch tact to Morgan Schneiderlin - a story we brought you in Monday's Paper Talk, while Ilkay Gundogan remains another option.
CHELSEA TO STRIKE VALENCIA DEAL
West Ham striker Enner Valencia is wanted by Chelsea this summer, according to the Daily Star.
The champions reportedly see the powerful Ecuadorian as the perfect replacement for Didier Drogba, who played the final game for Chelsea on the last day of the season.
Valencia, who is currently back home preparing for the Copa America, said: "We are going to see what happens after the competition.
"I've heard of the interest from Chelsea, yes, and other teams.
"But we're going to wait. If it's for my good and that of West Ham then it's welcome."
Valencia, who signed in a £12million deal from Mexican club Pachuca last summer, has four years remaining on his Hammers deal, with the club insisting it would take a big bid to prise him from their clutches.
