Both players have recently been linked with Spurs, with Brazilian forward Richarlison having also been linked with Chelsea.

Midfielder Doucoure has been discussing a new deal at Vicarage Road and it is claimed that Spurs are ready to move for him.

The Sun on Sunday also claim Spurs and Arsenal are battling to sign Stevenage’s teenage defender Ben Wilmot and that Tottenham players fear Toby Alderweireld will leave the club.

Arsenal, who have been linked with Chris Smalling, will have to pay £25m in order to sign the Manchester United defender, the Daily Star Sunday say.

Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke’s son Josh will conduct a review of the club as they prepare for life after Arsene Wenger, according to the Mail on Sunday.

West Ham are closing in on Saint-Etienne midfielder Jonathan Bamba, according to The Sun on Sunday.

And there continues to be speculation over the future of Chelsea star Eden Hazard.

The Daily Star Sunday claim Chelsea would ask for Sergio Aguero in exchange if Manchester City make an approach for Hazard.

Meanwhile, the Sunday Express claim Real Madrid are ready to offer Chelsea £100m plus former Tottenham star Gareth Bale.
