By PA Sport Staff
Manchester United are set to enter the race for former Juventus forward Paulo Dybala.
Quoting La Repubblica, the Daily Star says the Red Devils are keen to enter the market for the 28-year-old, who is a primary transfer target of Premier League rivals Arsenal. Napoli have also been linked with the Argentinian.
Staying with United, the Red Devils are also reportedly in the hunt for another Arsenal target in Lisandro Martinez.
The Sun, via The Athletic, says United and Martinez have entered advanced talks over a potential move from Ajax, while the Gunners have had three bids for the 24-year-old turned down.
The Yorkshire Evening Post reports Leeds and AC Milan have made transfer enquiries for Sassuolo midfielder Hamed Traore.
Citing Corriere dello Sport, the paper says Traore is believed to be on Leeds’ shortlist for a replacement for Raphinha, though Sassuolo are in no hurry to let the 22-year-old midfielder go.
The Daily Mail reports Leeds have also made a move for RB Leipzig midfielder Tyler Adams. Talks have begun over a potential £12m (€13.9 million) deal for the 22-year-old US international.
Crystal Palace and West Ham are both interested in Burnley winger Dwight McNeil, according to The Sun.
