    GONZALO HIGUAIN

    Juventus could offload the Argentine striker after clinching a club-record €99m deal for Real Madrid icon Cristiano Ronaldo.

    According to CalcioMercato.com, the Old Lady will allow the 30-year-old to leave Turin this summer to balance their books.

    Chelsea have previously been linked with the Los Blancos forward, who has enjoyed two prolific seasons with the Bianconeri following his switch from Napoli in the summer of 2016.

    Higuain is contracted to Juventus Stadium until 2021 but could be forced out as Juve look to clear the path for Ronaldo up top.

    CRISTIANO PICCINI

    Manchester United face competition from West Ham in the race to sign the Sporting Lisbon defender, Turkish Football reports.

    The 25-year-old, who plies his trade at right-back but can operate in other positions, has also been the subject of a loan offer from Besiktas.

    Piccini is said to favour a move to the Premier League but will also be swayed by the prospect of regular first-team football elsewhere.

    The Italian started his career at Fiorentina and enjoyed a two-season stint with Real Betis between 2015 and 2017.
