Premier League: Latest transfer rumours 20/06/2022

 Who's going where? 

Nobody really knows but let's see what the papers are saying

Mirror - Gabriel Jesus is at the centre of a tug of war between bitter north London rivals Arsenal and Spurs.

Manchester City ’s 25-year-old striker is at the top of Mikel Arteta’s shopping list as the Spaniard looks to fill the void left by Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gunners are understood to be close to Premier League champions £50million valuation of the Brazilian marksman.

However, Antonio Conte has made a move to shatter negotiations by offering Champions League football to Jesus, who netted 95 times in six years at the Etihad. Losing out to Spurs would represent a massive blow to Arteta’s transfer plans.

Express -  Liverpool could be left disappointed in their pursuit of Jude Bellingham

The Express reports that Jude Bellingham is clearly very highly admired by the Reds but is a transfer project for 2023, not now.

That's because Borussia Dortmund have already lost one key player in Erling Haaland, who joined Manchester City, and don't want to lose the England international in the same window. Bellingham agrees that another year will do his development good after two seasons in Germany. 

He has reportedly said: "The only future I think about is the next game for Dortmund. I look forward to next season. I look forward to it finally starting. I will be here next season and I will be ready."

It's time to for another sliding doors moment in football  We travel back to 2004. Manchester United face Porto in the last-16 of the Champions League.  Author - Liam C What actually happened? A ontroversial offside call against Paul Scholes became a pivotal moment in European football history. The disallowed goal cost United a place in the quarter-finals, while Porto, managed by the up and coming manager José Mourinho, went on to win the competition and launch Mourinho into the managerial elite.

There has been a managerial change at Old Trafford. Manchester United have sacked manager Erik ten Hag due to the club's disappointing start to the season. Author - Olivia T Ten Hag's last match ended in a 2-1 defeat against West Ham , leaving the club in 14th place in the Premier League with only three wins from their first nine matches. The Red Devils are also 21st of 36 teams in the Europa League league stage, having drawn their three opening matches. Club sources from the club have reportedly suggested that this was a difficult decision but a unanimous one among all the key decision makers.  The club exercised a one-year extension in Ten Hag's contract after their FA Cup final win against Manchester City in May . However, just over three months later, he has been dismissed. United currently sit on 11 points after nine games, marking their second-lowest tally in the Premier League at this stage (only slightly better than the 10 points they had in the 2019-20 season)

Author - Mark Lee In a lacklustre match, Rangers wasted several opportunities to secure three points. A combination of poor finishing and solid defending from Kilmarnock made it another frustrating afternoon for the Belgian manager. As the game was heading for a draw, David Watson's lob found Marley Watkins, who beat the offside trap and bundled the ball past Jack Butland. The Gers need to regroup quickly ahead of their Europa League match against FCSB on Thursday. Meanwhile, Derek McInnes' team has now moved to seventh place and are just outside the top six on goal difference.
