Rumour reel: Arsenal to throw money at Sanchez

Juve bid £23m for Emre Can

Liverpool have spent all summer trying to fight Barcelona off, with the La Liga giants looking to force through a deal to bring Philippe Coutinho to the Nou Camp, and some sections of the media believe they are fighting a losing battle. With their eye off the ball, Juventus aim to pile the pressure on by submitting a bit for German Emre Can. The 23-year-old midfielder, bought from Bayer Leverkusen in 2014 for £10m, has caught the eye of Juve manager Massimiliano Allegri, and he’s ready to test the water with a £23m offer. Can has less than a year left on his current contract at Anfield, and doesn’t appear to be in a rush to sign a new one, with negotiations ongoing, meaning The Reds will listen to any serious offers, rather than risk losing the player for free. Jurgen Klopp has already said he wants Can to stay.

West Ham latest club linked with Carvalho

West Ham go to Manchester United tomorrow for one-half of a stunning super Sunday line-up. They have already made some ambitious moves in the transfer window, and are ready to pull off another, spending a club record transfer fee of £27m on Sporting Lisbon midfielder William Carvalho. The Portuguese star has previously been linked to a move to Tottenham, but Spurs don’t appear to be in a rush to sign anyone at the moment, and Danny Rose’s outburst is said to be just the tip of the iceberg. The midfielder is no stranger to being connected with Premier League sides at this time of year, so we’ll keep this one filed under gossip at the minute, but some reports tell us that player and club have already reached a verbal agreement. Carvalho is keen to play his football in this part of the world, and The Hammers appear to have money to spend. We’ll keep you updated.
