Paper Round: Barcelona to choose between Philippe Coutinho and Dele Alli
Barcelona target Philippe Coutinho
Fresh from selling Neymar to Paris Saint-Germain for his £200m release clause, Barcelona want to bring Liverpool
forward Philippe Coutinho to the Nou Camp. Barca want the 25-year-old
Brazil international to replace Neymar in attack, to partner Lionel Messi
and Luis Suarez. Barcelona will use the majority of the remaining cash
to bring in Premier League target Ousmane Dembele for £70m from Borussia Dortmund.
Barcelona consider Alli swoop
Barcelona are also considering a move for Tottenham midfielder
Dele Alli. No fee is mentioned by the Express, but they believe that the
Catalan club might be interested in the 21-year-old England
international after tracking him for a year. Tottenham Hotspur
have Alli well down the list on their top earners, so could prove it
difficult to hold onto him, despite their wishes to prove they are no
longer a selling club.
Four way battle for Thomas Lemar
Arsenal had been in the front seat for £50m-rated Thomas Lemar, Monaco's forward. However, the 21-year-old France international was also wanted by Liverpool and Manchester City,
who have yet to seriously reinforce their attacks in this transfer
window. However, there's a problem, with Barcelona again being mentioned
in the press as a potential buyer of Lemar now that they are trying to
fill a Neymar-shaped void.
Gatlin win an insult to Bolt
The Mail on Sunday argues that it was a night of shame for
athletics as drugs cheat Justin Gatlin beat out retiring Usain Bolt on
Saturday night for the 100m World Athletics Championships 100m gold.
Noting the silence, then the boos, from the London crowd as they
realised that Gatlin was victorious. The column also notes that Mo Farah
has been "paranoid" in the face of questions over his own actions.
