David de Gea wants Manchester United stay, Chelsea name price for Eden Hazard

David de Gea, Eden Hazard, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Leandro Paredes all feature in Tuesday's Paper Round.

Dave saves, but will he sign?

David de Gea is waiting for Manchester United to offer a £300,000-a-week contract before committing his long-term future to the club – the Daily Mail reports. The United goalkeeper proved his class with a man-of-the-match display in Sunday’s win at Tottenham, and though he is tied down at Old Trafford until 2020, the Spaniard is keen for an improvement on his current £200,000-a-week contract before signing. 

Hazard's price-tag

Chelsea will ask for upwards of £100m if Eden Hazard tells the club he wants a move to Real in Madrid in the summer, by which point the Belgian will have just one year left on his contract at Stamford Bridge – the Telegraph reports. The playmaker is hopeful Real will make their summer intentions clear this month, with Chelsea also keen to resolve the situation as soon as possible. 

Ole in pole position

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been propelled to favourite for the permanent manager’s job at Manchester United after steering the club to six straight wins as interim boss – the Sun reports. Executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is said to have visited the Wembley dressing room after United’s record-breaking win over Spurs to congratulate Solskjaer, while the Norwegian’s ability to get the best out of Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford is also impressing the club’s hierarchy. 

Paredes agrees terms at Chelsea

Chelsea are closing in on their replacement for Cesc Fabregas after agreeing terms with Zenit midfielder Leandro Paredes – the Mirror reports. Zenit are said to fear Paredes will go on strike if the deal doesn’t go through, with a Chelsea said to be offering £27m to secure the 24-year-old’s services.
