Coral’s Rumour Reel: Man Utd a thorn in Spurs’ side for Danny Rose

Man Utd to menace Spurs in summer?

With the January transfer clock ticking ominously for a number of teams, it appears as though Manchester United already have an eye instead on some summer signings, as a triple raid on Tottenham is tipped to occur.

Breakfast tabloids are speculating that Spurs have warned the Red Devils off defender Danny Rose, with the Old Trafford outfit said to be tracking the adaptable Doncaster-born left back who was heavily linked to Premier League Chelsea last summer.

While, Man Utd’s interest in poaching English talents from White Hart Lane may not end there, as further rumours suggest Red Devils scouts have been out in force eyeing Three Lions flavours of the month Dele Alli and Harry Kane, though both young-guns would command huge fees.

However, one target Man Utd might miss out on is silky PSG centre half Marquinhos, as papers in Spain believe the Brazilian is topping Real Madrid’s mysterious defensive wishlist ahead of four unnamed others.

Everton eyeing striker, surprise Stoke swoop

Staying up north in the Premier League, Everton are apparently on the verge of snaring Lokomotiv Moscow and Senegalese striker Oumar Niasse for a mooted fee of £13.5m, as a way to shore up their sharpshooter options ahead of any possible moves for star man Romelu Lukaku in summer.

From Merseyside to Mancunia, and Manchester City are also in the headlines, having emerged as fresh favourites to steal ahead of Chelsea in the £50m race for Toffees star John Stones. Could this have something to do with a certain Pep Guardiola? The morning gossip suggests that the Bayern Munich manager’s wife was spotted touring a Manchester school. Hmmm.
