Schneiderlin set for Old Trafford exit

Morgan Schneiderlin is surplus to requirements at Manchester United and is set to be reunited with his former boss Ronald Koeman at Everton - reports The Sun. Jose Mourinho is in the middle of a clear-out since taking over at Old Trafford and believes that the former Southampton midfielder does

not fit with his plans for next season. Schneiderlin - who cost £25m a year ago - would be available for a reduced fee, and Koeman is desperate to team up with the Frenchman again at Goodison Park.

City and Liverpool battle for Andros

Andros Townsend's release clause could be met by both Manchester City and Liverpool, reports The Telegraph. Townsend's impressive displays for Newcastle in the club's relegation season caught the eye of a number of Premier League scouts, with Crystal Palace, Southampton and West Ham already known as suitors of the winger. But top-flight big-hitters City and Liverpool believe that the direct wide man would be a bargain buy and are interested in a cut-price deal.

 
Chelsea plan double Italian swoop

Antonio Conte wants to bring two Italy internationals to Chelsea, with Antonio Candreva and Leonardo Bonucci in his sights - reports The Sun. The Chelsea wants experience in his squad and has earmarked the pair as perfect summer additions. Winger Candreva has told his club Lazio that he wishes to leave, with Inter Milan the initial favourites before Chelsea entered the race for his signature. And centre-back Bonucci has anchored Juventus' recent dominance in Italy and would provide experience alongside Gary Cahill and Kurt Zouma in a back-three at Chelsea next season.
