    ALVARO MORATA

    The Chelsea hitman could be in line for a summer switch to Borussia Dortmund, according to the Sun.

    The Blues are open to cashing in on the Spaniard after a difficult first season at Chelsea following his £60m (Dh308m) move from Real Madrid.

    Having initially started like a house on fire at the Blues with 12 goals in three months, Morata’s form has faded while injuries have restricted his impact in 2018.

    Chelsea are thought to be content with keeping the striker, but the 25-year-old may find a switch away from West London beneficial to his career.

    KIERAN TIERNEY

    Manchester United and Tottenham are ramping up plans to recruit a new left-back and the Celtic youngster is high on their wishlist, according to the Daily Mail.

    With uncertainty over the future of Danny Rose at Wembley Stadium, Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is keen on seeing whether the Scotland international can solve his problem position.

    A lifelong Hoops fan, Tierney is reportedly happy at Celtic Park, but a Scottish record transfer fee of £30m (Dh 149m) could be enough to trigger the 20-year-old’s release clause.
