Paper round-up: Two forwards lined up by Spurs

Tottenham are looking to sign a striker on a permanent deal during this transfer window, according to The Independent.

The club are reported to have made the decision in light of Harry Kane suffering an ankle injury.

The Independent say Barcelona’s Malcom (pictured) and Antonio Sanabria of Real Betis are Spurs’ two main targets.

They were interested in Brazilian Malcom prior to his move from Bordeaux to Barca, who are reportedly willing to let him go on loan with a view to a permanent move.

Paraguay international Sanabria has a release clause of €30m and is also said to be of interest.

Meanwhile, Arsenal fear losing three of their youngsters to German clubs, again according to The Independent.

Borussia Dortmund signing Jadon Sancho and Bayern Munich pursuing Callum Hudson-Odoi has led to speculation that other young English players could be targeted.

The Independent say Arsenal are worried that there could be approaches made for Xavier Amaechi, Tyreece John-Jules and keeper Arthur Okonkwo.

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey will sign a four-year contract with Juventus worth £300,000 a week, according to The Times.

The Daily Express say Chelsea are close to a deal to bring in Gonzalo Higuain and are also set to sign Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Leandro Paredes for £31m.

Both the Express and the Daily Mail say Chelsea are willing to offer Hudson-Odoi £70,000 a week in order to keep him at Stamford Bridge.

West Ham have had two offers for Genoa’s Polish striker Krzysztof Piatek rejected, the Mail reports.

Crystal Palace have had an approach for Leeds United youngster Jack Clarke rejected, according to the Daily Mirror. 

And Fulham boss Claudio Ranieri is targeting Fiorentina’s Burkina Faso international midfielder Bryan Dabo, The Sun say.
