Some of the latest transfer speculation involving Chelsea.
The Sun say Tottenham want Middlesbrough defender Ben Gibson, who has also been linked with Chelsea.
The Blues and Spurs are “ready to go to war” to sign the 24-year-old this summer, The Sun declare.
It is claimed that Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino wants him to play alongside Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld in a 3-4-3 formation next season.
Chelsea are also said to be keen to buy Gibson, who is among the many centre-backs to have been touted as a long-term replacement for John Terry.
Alexis Sanchez plans to give Arsenal one more year and then join Chelsea on a Bosman free transfer if the Gunners do not improve, the Daily Mirror say.
It comes amid continued speculation over the future of Sanchez, whose contract at the Emirates Stadium is due to expire in 2018.
Chelsea have been linked with a summer move for the Chilean forward, 28, along with a number of other top European clubs.
The Mirror claim he is happy in London and prepared to see out the final year of his Arsenal contract before a potential move to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are among a number of Premier League clubs monitoring Vancouver Whitecaps youngster Alphonso Davies, according to the Daily Mail.
Manchester United are apparently keen on the 16-year-old winger and the Mail say Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Stoke have also been made aware of him.
Davies was born in Liberia but is a Canada Under-20 international. He primarily operates on the left flank but can also play through the middle.
He is reportedly under contract with the Whitecaps until 2018.
Chelsea continue to be linked with Schalke left-back Sead Kolisinac.
The 23-year-old Bosnian’s contract expires this summer and Everton are reported to have offered him a £100,000-a-week- deal, while Liverpool and Manchester City have also been linked.
Chelsea were linked with him during the final days of the January transfer window and the Daily Mirror say the Blues are confident he will choose to join them this summer.
It is also claimed that Juventus, AC Milan and Roma are all interested but that the player favours a move to the Premier League.
Metro have picked up on reports in Italy claiming that a deal for Chelsea to re-sign Romelu Lukaku from Everton is almost done.
Sky in Italy have claimed that an agreement has almost been reached for Lukaku to return to Stamford Bridge after he turned down a new contract at Goodison Park.
The Belgian striker, currently the Premier League’s top scorer, with 21 goals, has a reported price tag of £70m.
