– Bayern Munich and Liverpool are exploring a move for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Archie Gray, the Daily Mail reports. Gray, 20, is one of several players that could be moved on if Spurs suffer relegation from the Premier League this season, with both European giants keeping close tabs on his situation. The report adds that Gray’s teammate Lucas Bergvall could also leave, and the 20-year-old is admired by both Chelsea and Aston Villa.
– Arsenal are leading the race for Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon, according to The Sun. It is reported that the Gunners are in the strongest position to sign the 25-year-old, who would prefer to move to a club in London if he is to leave Tyneside this summer. Gordon is also on the radar of Liverpool and Bayern Munich, and there is belief that a £75 million offer would be enough to persuade the Magpies to part ways with him. The former Everton player scored 10 goals in Newcastle’s UEFA Champions League campaign this season.
