Walcott sets transfer demands
08:30: Arsenal forward Theo Walcott reportedly has one condition if he is to leave the Emirates Stadium.
The attacker has yet to start a Premier League game for Arsenal this season and looks certain to depart when the transfer window reopens in January.
Everton and Southampton are both interested in taking the 28-year-old away from north London as they look to save their respective seasons.
And, according to Football London, Walcott is only willing to move if he remains an Arsenal player and goes out on a six-month loan.
Sanchez transfer shake-up
08:00: Alexis Sanchez has reportedly decided he wants to join Real Madrid over a move to Manchester City.
The Chile international has been heavily linked with a move to the Etihad in since the start of the season and a deal was almost completed in the summer only for it to fall through at the last moment.
But Spanish outlet Don Balon now claim City could miss out on their transfer target.
The report states Sanchez favours a move to the Bernabeu to work under Zinedine Zidane.

Zaha lined up to replace Sanchez
07:30: Wilfried Zaha has been lined up by Arsenal as their No 1 target to replace Alexis Sanchez.
Zaha has rediscovered his best form at Crystal Palace this season with recent rumours suggesting he is being coveted by some of the league’s top clubs.
Roy Hodgson admitted earlier this month he couldn’t guarantee whether the 25-year-old would still be at Selhurst Park come February.
And the Daily Star claim Arsenal could be set test Palace’s resolve in January with a bid.
