First up to the plate is Man City, who according to the Daily Mail, may stand to lose midfield maestro David Silva over unsettled wage demands, Silva is believed to be holding out for ÂŁ200,000-a-week.

Daily Star is more concerned with potential arrivals at the Etihad, claiming that target Daniele De Rossi, 29, will confirm today whether will stay in Roma or switch to the Premier League.

Liverpool will tell Andy Carroll, 23, to state his intentions for this season by the end of the week, having received interest from both Tottenham and West Ham, writes the Daily Mirror.

The Guardian have reported that Tottenham Midfielder Tom Huddlestone, 25, could be heading out of White Hart Lane on loan, with Stoke keen on his signature, meaning Yann M’Villa may finnaly be on his way to the Premiership.

TalkSport, Evening Standard and Daily Mirror are all in disagreement as to who will lead Spurs’ front line, claiming that the missing piece of AVB’s puzzle will be Marouane Chamakh, Roma midfielder Miralem Pjanic, 22, and Edin Dzeko respectively.

Fulham, who achieved five goals on the weekend, is the last team anyone would expect to be investing in strikers, but hold on, Daily Star is linking the London club with ex-Arsenal attacker Eduardo.

Now that Clint Dempsey has confirmed he will no longer play for Fulham, manager Martin Jol wants security in the form of a proven goal machine.
