Paper round-up: West Ham boss Pellegrini planning move for Spain star

West Ham want Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Mirror say Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini and director of football Mario Husillos are admirers of the Spain international and are keen to take him to the London Stadium.

Real are tipped to spend big this summer and Ceballos, 22, will potentially be out in the cold. West Ham are said to have been alerted to his possible availability.

Meanwhile, Tottenham have placed a £130m price tag on Christian Eriksen, according to the Daily Mail.

There continues to be much speculation over the future of the Danish midfielder, whose Spurs contract expires next year.

He has been strongly linked with a number of clubs, particularly Real Madrid, and has been tipped to move on this summer.

The Daily Mirror say Real and Inter Milan are monitoring the situation and that Spurs face a dilemma over whether to sell him.

The Times, on the other hand, say Real have cooled their interest in Eriksen and have prioritised signing Chelsea star Eden Hazard and Manchester United’s Paul Pogba.

The Sun say Real will offer Hazard £400,000 a week after tax to join them and that Chelsea are willing to let him go for around £100m.

Wolves are keen to sign Tammy Abraham on loan from Chelsea next season, according to the Daily Mirror.

And Arsenal are interested in a potential £18m deal to sign former Stoke and Blackburn midfielder Steven N’Zonzi from Roma, the Mirror claim.

N’Zonzi, who has previously been linked with the Gunners, is again being tipped to return to the Premier League.
