Transfer news, rumours LIVE: Man Utd target £60m James Maddison plus latest Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea gossip

Welcome to the Evening Standard’s LIVE blog dedicated to the latest transfer news, rumours and gossip.

James Maddison is a £60million target for Manchester United with the Red Devils moving ahead of Man City, Liverpool and Tottenham in the queue for the Leicester City playmaker, according to the Independent.

Liverpool want to secure the future of manager Jurgen Klopp with a new, extended contract following his Champions League triumph.

Mauricio Pochettino has made no secret of the fact that he wants summer signings, and the Mirror reports that the Tottenham boss is set to be backed by the board in the market.

Pochettino has plenty of targets, with bids said to have been rejected for Real Betis playmaker Giovani Lo Celso and Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele.

Sticking with Spurs, we have known that Napoli have been interested in Kieran Trippier for a while - but the Mirror reports that the full-back could now make a shock move to Juventus along with Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri.

Everton forward Richarlison admits he is flattered by reported links to Manchester United and Barcelona, but is 'not thinking about a transfer at the moment'.

Sportmediaset states that Manchester United's asking price for Romelu Lukaku is £62m, but Inter Milan are reportedly struggling to sign the Belgian given that they need to raise £40m to meet FFP rules - that's according to The Sun.

We’ll bring you today's football gossip and the latest from Arsenal, Man United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham, West Ham, Man City, Barcelona, Real Madrid and more over the course of the window…
