What the papers say

The race to sign Marouane Fellaini from Manchester United is hotting up – with Paris St Germain looking to take on the 30-year-old, according to the Daily Mirror. The Belgian is out of contract at Old Trafford in the summer and is yet to agree a new deal, with Besiktas and Galatasaray also keen on landing the midfielder, according to the paper.

After leaving Sheffield Wednesday on Christmas Eve, Carlos Carvalhal is being linked with the vacant hotseat at Swansea, according to The Sun. The club are currently bottom of the Premier League, five points adrift of safety, and are looking to replace Paul Clement who was dismissed on December 20.

Chelsea will square off against Bayern Munich in a race to sign Yannick Carrasco from Atletico Madrid, The Sun reports. The LaLiga side are looking at overhauling their squad and the 24-year-old looks set to be heading for the exit door, the paper said.

West Ham will make a bid of £25million for Alfie Mawson in January, the Daily Mail says. The 23-year-old has shined in an otherwise bleak campaign for Swansea and the Hammers have already had an £18million bid rejected, the paper said.
