Paper round-up: Crystal Palace chasing Liverpool man

Crystal Palace are among clubs being linked with Harry Wilson.

The Daily Mirror say winger Wilson, who has been on loan at Derby, has told Liverpool that he wants to leave Anfield this summer.

The Mirror say Palace, Newcastle, Brighton and Southampton are keen on the Wales international along with clubs in Germany.

Meanwhile, Kieran Trippier will not be joining Napoli from Tottenham, according to The Sun.

England right-back Trippier, 28, has been linked with a move to the Italian club with some reports suggesting a deal was in the pipeline.

But The Sun say Napoli have switched their attention from Trippier as they are looking to sign younger players.

West Ham midfielder Edimilson Fernandes is set to join German side Mainz in an £8m deal, also according to The Sun.

The Sun also say Real Madrid believe they have agreed a £115m deal to sign Eden Hazard from Chelsea.

The agreement would reportedly involve an initial £100m payment followed by a possible £15m in add-ons.

A number of newspapers report Blues head coach Maurizio Sarri storming off towards the end of Chelsea’s training session on the eve of the Europa League final against Arsenal.

The Daily Mail say Chelsea could install Frank Lampard as Sarri’s replacement if the Italian leaves for Juventus.

Blues legend Lampard, whose Derby side recently lost in the Championship play-off final, is said to have been earmarked by Chelsea as a future manager at Stamford Bridge.

The club are said to be considering appointing Lampard sooner than anticipated in light of Sarri’s possible departure.

The Mail say former France and Paris St-Germain boss Laurent Blanc could also come into contention.
