Manchester United identify major €120m David De Gea replacement; Liverpool suffer big summer transfer blow; Chelsea join Arsenal in race for Premier League star

Oblak to replace De Gea?

ESPN claim Manchester United are seriously considering triggering Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak's €120 million buy-out clause.

The usually dependable David De Gea has made some high-profile errors recently and, with his contract set to expire in 2020, speculation has been building about his future.

That could mean United make a move for 26-year-old Oblak as a replacement.

Hazard agrees Dortmund move

The Mirror report that Liverpool have been dealt a blow in their chase for Thorgan Hazard.

The Borussia Monchengladbach star, brother of Chelsea’s Eden, had been attracting interest from Anfield, but has now confirmed he has an agreement in place with Borussia Dortmund.

He said: "I have a contract for one more season, but I have already said before that I want to take the next step in my career.

"I want to experience something new. It’s now up to the clubs to reach an agreement.

"That will take a bit of time. It’s always like that with negotiations. There are talks between Gladbach and Dortmund, yes.

"I have a personal agreement with Dortmund. It’s out of my hands. It’s up to the clubs now."

Race for Fraser

The Metro claim that both Chelsea and Arsenal have stepped up their interest in Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser.

Fraser has been one of the Cherries' stand-out players so far this season and is reportedly willing to quit the South Coast club in the summer.

That has alerted both the Gunners and the Blues to his availability, and a transfer battle could well develop in the summer.
