Premier League pair circling for Alaba.

Unwilling to extend his stay at the Allianz Arena, the versatile defender is set to drop to the free-agent pool at the end of this season.

Liverpool target Ajax defender.

Liverpool are monitoring Ajax’s Perr Schuurs with the view of making a move for him next summer. Finding themselves thin on options at the back, the Reds would be willing to pay in the region of €15 million for the 20-year-old center-back.

Schuurs, considered one of the most promising talents in Europe, has a contract until 2022 with the Dutch side. [Don Balon]

European trio have eyes on Thauvin.

Leicester City, AC Milan, and Napoli have all developed a transfer interest in Marseille’s Florian Thauvin, who is out of contract at the end of the season.
