#1 Arsenal to make shock bid for Smalling

Manchester United centre back Chris Smalling has emerged as a shock target for Premier League rivals Arsenal.

The 24-year-old has not fully established himself at Old Trafford despite signing for the Red Devils four years ago. While Gunners' boss Arsene Wenger is said to be a long term admirer of the England International and is plotting a £13 million bid this summer.

#2 Barca will listen to offers for Fabregas

Arsenal and Manchester United have been alerted by the speculations that Barcelona will consider to offload Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas for the right price.

Fabregas, who was Man United's top target last summer, is often played out of position by Barca boss Tata Martino. The 26-year-old has failed to impress after returning to the Catalan club in 2011 and has also been linked with a move back to Arsenal.

Red Devils are believed to value him around £25 million, who are expected to make new bid after failing to land the midfielder with three bids last summer.

#3 Tottenham target Man United\'s Welbeck

Welbeck, who has two years left on his contract with Man United, is keen to stay at Old Trafford but may be tempted by the oppurtunity to be a regular first choice centre forward.
