Football rumours from the media

What the papers say

Alexis Sanchezis reportedly stuck in limbo, with neither Inter Milan or Manchester United wanting the Chilean forward. The 31-year-old has scored just one goal in 15 appearances on loan for Inter and The Sun says his lacklustre form has placed him in an unenviable position with neither club willing to pay for his services beyond the end of this season.

Former Liverpool strikerFabio Boriniis believed to be on the radar of both Aston Villa and Crystal Palace. The Birmingham Mail, via Italian newspaper L’Arena, has reported that both clubs have made enquiries about the 29-year-old’s immediate future at Hellas Verona.

Chelsea are reportedly aiming to hang on to Spanish goalkeeperKepa Arrizabalaga, despite also being interested in AC Milan’s Italy internationalGianluigi Donnarumma. According to the Daily Mail, the club is concerned that the coronavirus pandemic has had a negative impact on Arrizabalaga’s value, leaving manager Frank Lampard with a tough decision to make on whether to persist with the Spaniard or look elsewhere.
