Transfer gossip: Remy and Hazard speculation, Whites reported to have targeted McNair
A round-up of the latest transfer speculation involving the area’s clubs…
Galatasaray want to sign Loic Remy, according to reports in Turkey.
Aston Villa are keen to sign the striker, who has also been linked with Newcastle – where he previously spent a season on loan – and Crystal Palace.
There has been speculation over whether Chelsea would be willing to let him leave him Stamford Bridge without the club signing a replacement first.
Meanwhile, speculation continues over the future of Eden Hazard, who is being linked with a big-money move to Real Madrid.
The Daily Mail, which reports that Hazard intends to leave the Bridge, say he is wanted by Real and Paris St-Germain. Chelsea apparently want £90m for the Belgian.
The Sun, on the other hand, say Hazard will wait to see who Chelsea’s manager is after the end of the season before deciding his future.
The Sun also reports that the Blues will face competition from Napoli if they want to sign Amadou Diawara from Bologna.
Diawara’s agent has claimed that Chelsea are among a number of English clubs chasing the 18-year-old.
And Fulham have failed with an attempt to sign defender Paddy McNair on loan from Manchester United, according to The Times.
United are reported to have rejected approaches for the 20-year-old from the Whites, Blackburn, Burnley and Wolves.
