TOP STORY: Premier League giants want Haaland

Three of the Premier League's biggest clubs are interested in signing Erling Haaland, Calciomercato reports.

The 19-year-old forward has been a goal-scoring sensation for FC Salzburg this season, firmly establishing himself as one of the most exciting young forwards in Europe. Haaland's latest headline-making moment came at Anfield when he completed Salzburg's three-goal comeback with a tap-in in the box, before Liverpool then found a winner.

Jurgen Klopp's side are, somewhat unsurprisingly, one of three clubs being heavily linked with the Norwegian, alongside Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United. Will any club look to make a move when the January window opens?

PAPER ROUND: Everton to muscle in on Dembele chase?

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sent scout to Lyon at the weekend to case an eye over former Fulham and Celtic striker Moussa Dembele, but reports suggest another Premier League club could steal a march.

Everton have suffered an awful start to the season, sitting in the relegation zone after eight matches. And now coach Marco Silva could look to Dembele to help the club out of the mire.

Dembele is rated at £40m and has struggled to hold down a starting place with Lyon this season, but still has six Ligue 1 goals to his name.
