Mesut Ozil will be offered the chance to leave Arsenal by Inter, according to the <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/7876936/mesut-ozil-arsenal-escape-inter-line/">Sun</a>. A much-maligned presence at the Emirates, he has found himself on the bench for certain away matches this season and has regularly been the subject of criticism from fans.

The frosty relationship between Manchester United's Paul Pogba and Jose Mourinho has taken a turn for the worse, according to the <a href="https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/manchester-united-star-paul-pogba-13675979" target="_blank">Daily Record</a>, which reports the Portuguese branded the World Cup winner "a virus" in an astonishing dressing room rant. Pogba has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford for several months now, and this speculation is set to accelerate in the wake of the manager's words, which came after the Red Devils were held 2-2 by Southampton on Saturday.

Manchester United are ready to pay in excess of £70 million ($89m) to sign Everton's Jordan Pickford if David De Gea leaves, according to the <a href="https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1053085/Manchester-United-transfer-exclusive-Jose-Mourinho-Jordan-Pickford">Sunday Express.</a> The Red Devils remain in talks over a long-term deal for De Gea but are making contingency plans should the Spain international leave. Pickford only signed a new six-year deal at Goodison Park in September but Man United believe a fee of more than £70m&nbsp;- a world&nbsp;record fee for a goalkeeper - would be enough to land the England international.
