Coral’s rumour reel

Transfer stories are few and far between in the Saturday papers, but reports from abroad, specifically Italy, talk of Premier League incomings and outgoings to and from Serie A.

Milan in Memphis move?

AC Milan are not the force they once were, but a famous football club such as the Rossoneri still has pulling power, and the latest name to be linked with a San Siro switch is out-of-favour Manchester United winger Memphis Depay.

Netherlands international Memphis, 22, is on the periphery of things at Old Trafford under Jose Mourinho, who has preferred the likes of Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata and Anthony Martial out wide since succeeding Louis van Gaal.

Much was expected from Memphis when he signed for the Red Devils last summer, after picking up the Eredivisie Golden Boot and Johan Cruyff Trophy for Dutch footballer of the year in 2014/15, but he has not kicked on.

Milan’s Memphis move could materialise in January with Rossoneri chiefs understood to be considering a £24m bid. There’s a plethora of forward flops at the San Siro he’d be competing with, and the aim would be to supplement Colombia hitman Carlos Bacca with goals and assists.

Brozovic to Spurs?
