Transfer news and rumours LIVE: Arsenal & Tottenham eye Man Utd's Bailly

Eric Bailly may be the subject of a bidding war between Arsenal and Tottenham amid his difficult spell at Manchester United, says the <a href="https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/arsenal-spurs-pursue-eric-bailly-13593215" target="_blank">Daily Record</a>. Although Jose Mourinho is convinced of Bailly's potential to be a top defender, he has been unable to break back into the United first-team since October. Having already tried to lure him away from Old Trafford before the season started, the London sides may try again in the winter transfer window.

Roma are concerned they could lose Cengiz Under to Liverpool or Manchester City in January, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.calciomercato.com/news/roma-sotto-assedio-da-pellegrini-a-under-il-rischio-addio-e-alto-63587">reports in Italy</a>. The Italian club will try to commit the 21-year-old Turkey international to a new contract amid his bright performances in Serie A.

According to the <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/arsenal-transfer-news-aaron-ramsey-contract-free-bayern-munich-liverpool-chelsea-fc-a8634646.html">Independent</a>, Arsenal midfielder&nbsp;Aaron Ramsey could be on his way to the Allianz Arena next summer, as Bayern Munich have held successful talks with the Welshman's representatives. The 27-year-old will be available&nbsp;on a free transfer at the end of the current campaign&nbsp;upon the expiration of his current contract at the Emirates and had been linked with a move to Premier League rivals Liverpool and Chelsea. However, it now looks as though Bayern will secure his services, with Ramsey now expected to sign a long-term deal with the club which will come into effect at the start of next season.

Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil epitomise “the good and bad of Arsenal”, says Stewart Robson, with the Gunners right to let the former leave and not bow to his demands. With his contract at Emirates Stadium running down, a Wales international is heading towards free agency in north London – <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/ramsey-closing-on-bayern-deal-as-arsenal-contract-runs-down/1nmmut2j3sim81y0b8qftbmeax" target="_blank">with&nbsp;Goal&nbsp;understanding that German giants Bayern Munich are closing in on a deal</a>. But with Ozil already in the team, Robson believes manager Unai Emery cannot afford any more midfielders who contribute little to the defensive side of the game. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/ramsey-and-ozil-too-similar-and-arsenal-right-to-part-with/k1qjuymd8zym1vf4rc9f51y7s" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

Erwin Koeman is expected to be appointed Fenerbahce coach on a full-time basis. The Dutchman joined the Turkish side as assistant to Phillip Cocu before the season started, but the latter was soon sacked amid a dismal run. Koeman, brother of Netherlands national team coach Ronald, has already got the backing of technical director&nbsp;Damien Comolli.

Lionel Messi has asked Barcelona to chase Liverpool's Mohamed Salah in the winter transfer window, in order to increase their chances of winning the Champions League. According to <a href="https://www.donbalon.com/noticia/detalle/131679/operacion-galactica-barca-messi-quiere-quitarle-fichaje-estrella-florentino-perez">Don Balon</a>, the Argentine superstar is desperate&nbsp;to conquer Europe again but believes&nbsp;Ernesto Valverde needs to bring in attacking reinforcements to ensure success. Salah would command a huge fee, but with eight goals to his name already in all competitions this season, he could be the perfect foil for Messi and Luis Suarez in a front-three for Barca next year.

Juventus left-back Alex Sandro could be used as part of a deal to bring Marcelo to Turin, according to <a href="http://www.tuttosport.com/news/calcio/calciomercato/2018/11/14-49971999/marcelo_e_gli_altri_le_soluzioni_al_rebus_alex_sandro/">Tuttosport</a>. The Brazilian defender would command a €50m (£44m, $56m) fee on his own, but Real Madrid would consider letting him go in exchange for Sandro, who is three years younger. Marcelo is reportedly keen to follow former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus, after 11 years of service at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Benfica winger&nbsp;Eduardo Salvio is being lined up for a switch to Inter Milan next summer, with his agent&nbsp;Augustin Jimenez trying to broker a deal.

Bayern Munich are happy for James Rodriguez to return to Real Madrid next summer and will try to sign Eintracht Frankfurt centre-forward Luka Jovic to bolster their attacking options in his stead.
