Bailey makes claim

08.25: Leon Bailey has admitted he dreams of playing in England.

The Bayer Leverkusen winger is on Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal’s radar.

And the Premier League trio will be encouraged by his latest comments.

"Of course I have a dream club, but I will not tell. Basically England was and still is my dream," he told Bild.

"And if I keep working hard, I'm sure it will work someday. "

The 20-year-old moved to Leverkusen last season and has already seen a huge difference in his game.

"The change to Bayer was just the right step for my development. I am happy here," he added.

"And we have every chance to get into the Champions League. Europe is our big goal."

Wenger must go

07.50: Danny Murphy has blasted Arsene Wenger and called for the Arsenal boss to be axed.

“We know what Wenger did and the teams he has produced in the past, but that is the past,” Murphy told Sky Sports’ The Debate show.

“All I see is a team, year on year out, who don’t get coached very well and don’t look well balanced.

“That isn’t that difficult to change, but you have to change the coach, or the coaches under him, which he won’t let happen.

“Because of the way Arsenal Football Club is set up that won’t happen until he decides he wants it to happen.”

£90m for Lemar

07.30: Arsene Wenger has reignited his interested in signing Monaco winger Thomas Lemar amid interest from Liverpool.

Arsenal had put a deal for the winger on the backburner but talk of a potential move to Anfield in January for the Frenchman has sparked the Gunners into action.

The Mirror claim Monaco will take advantage of the competition for his signature and have put a £90m price-tag on Lemar.

And Wenger could be forced to cough up the cash, especially as the report suggests Alexis Sanchez is edging closer to Manchester City.

Five-player exodus

07.00: Arsenal are preparing a huge clear-out with as many as five players being shown the exit door over the next six months.

Goal claim Alexis Sanchez could be offloaded to Manchester City, while fringe players Francis Coquelin, Mathieu Debuchy and Theo Walcott could also leave.

Walcott is reportedly interested in a loan switch to improve his chances of making Gareth Southgate’s England squad this summer.

And Greek side Olympiacos are said to be looking at signing Joel Campbell who has become a forgotten player on loan with Real Betis.
