Premier League transfer news: Real Madrid to make €120 million offer for Manchester United star as Red Devils bid for Eriksen and more February 5, 2019

Hello and welcome to the Premier League transfer news and rumours of the day! Here are the top stories surrounding the Premier League tonight!

#5 Eden Hazard needs to be sold

Chelsea need to sell Eden Hazard because of how adversely he is affecting the dressing room – this is not what we think. In fact, this is the belief of former Premier League forward Stanley Collymore.

The situation of Hazard at Chelsea hasn’t been great as he has openly claimed to not care about what his manager Maurizio Sarri thinks. The Italian has been very open with his criticism of the Belgian and it is being rumoured that he is off to Madrid at the end of the season.

And according to Collymore, his toxic presence in the dressing room means that he must be sold, even though he is one of the best players in the world.

“Eden Hazard needs to leave Stamford Bridge – to rid Chelsea of its toxic dressing room,” he said.

“Nothing against the Belgian, who I rate one of the best in the world, but it’s time for the club to cash in.”

While Collymore praised the abilities of the winger, he feels that the former Lille man himself could be the problem at the club as he has had problems with every manager at Chelsea.

“He’s a wonderful talent but I’ve got a nagging feeling he’s part of the problems at the club.

“Jose Mourinho was lukewarm towards him, Antonio Conte wasn’t overly keen, and now he is part of a crew whose bottle Maurizio Sarri has questioned in the last few weeks.”

Meanwhile, Eden Hazard has revealed that he has made a decision on his future, saying: “I know what I am going to do. I have made a decision.”

#4 Salah could leave

Salah could leave Liverpool

Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah could be enticed to leave the club according to former Liverpool forward Emile Heskeyinho. Salah has been linked with a move to Real Madrid and Barcelona ever since hitting the ground running for Liverpool.

And even though they were just rumours, Heskey believes that there is a genuine chance for the former Roma star to leave. While he did mention that they have a lot of reasons to stay at Anfield, there is always a slight chance for them to leave.

“There’s always that risk [of players wanting to leave],” Heskey said

“The relationship between the players and the Liverpool fans is such that they always want to give the league another go," Heskey claimed.

“I’m not saying that they [Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane] wouldn’t go, but there is plenty of reason for them to stay.”

#3 Bakayoko wants permanent stay at Milan

Bakayoko wants to stay at Milan

Tiemoue Bakayoko was the foundation on which Leonardo Jardim’s Ligue 1-winning was made. After that, he was signed by Chelsea but he endured a torrid time at the Stamford Bridge.

As a result, he was loaned to AC Milan this season and he seems to have finally found his feet at the San Siro. As a result, the midfielder now wants to make his move permanent.

He stated that he would love to stay beyond his loan deal but also admitted that the final decision is in the hands of Chelsea and not him.

“We are talking about a club like Milan … Who would not like to join them for the long term?” he was quoted as saying.

“But I’m under contract for another three years with Chelsea and I do not control all elements,” Bakayoko stressed.

#2 Tottenham

Eriksen could leave

Tottenham Hotspur might not have signed anyone in the summer or winter transfer market but it definitely doesn’t mean that they won’t sign anyone in the upcoming windows.

However, according to reports, Tottenham and Liverpool have made a huge offer for Real Madrid’s academy star David De La Vibora. The youngster is only 16 years of age and is among the highest-rated youngsters in Real Madrid’s fabled La Fabrica academy.

But unfortunately for them, Madrid have signed him on a pro contract.

Meanwhile, the Londoners are in some concern with regards to Christian Eriksen. The Dane is yet to sign a new contract and it expires in the summer of 2020, which means that he could be available for a lower price this summer.

According to reports in Spain, both Manchester City and Manchester United are willing to pay €80 million for the Danish superstar.

#1 Stories of the day

Rashford wanted by Real Madrid

Manchester United starlet Marcus Rashford is still a target for Real Madrid. The Galacticos want a forward for next season and they believe that Rashford is the right man for their attack.

According to reports, the Merengues are willing to €120 million for him as they think that he would be a much economically better choice than Harry Kane.

Meanwhile, Ivan Rakitic has been linked with a move away from the Camp Nou. Ever since Barcelona agreed on a deal to bring Frenkie De Jong in the summer, speculations of Rakitic leaving the Camp Nou has skyrocketed.

However, his agent has cleared the air by claiming that Rakitic won't leave.

"It is an impossible scenario to see Ivan leaving Spain in the summer," he said.
