Manchester United to propose Anthony Martial exchange for Tottenham striker Harry Kane - Paper Round
United to offer Martial for Kane Manchester United will try to reunite Mauricio Pochettino with Harry Kane this summer. The 28-year-old Spurs striker is wanted at Old Trafford, and United believe that they have a way to tempt Antonio Conte into a deal. The Spurs manager was once a fan of Anthony Martial, who is currently on loan at Sevilla.
With the 26-year-old Frenchman wanting to leave the club, he could be offered in part exchange, claims The Mirror.

These days, Martial is a shadow of his younger self and is hardly an exciting prospect.
However, managers can often be tempted back to their former targets, and it might give them a reasonable replacement for Kane if he does finally leave Spurs. Read the full story Arsenal tracking Gakpo and Raphinha Premier League club Arsenal are tracking two wide forwards, reports The Sun. The first name on the shortlist is Leeds United’s 25-year-old Brazilian winger Raphinha, who could be available for as little as £25 million if the Yorkshire side are relegated this season, though Barcelona are also keen.
Another option is PSV Eindhoven’s 22-year-old forward Cody Gakpo. /> Paper Round’s view: Gakpo is a younger player and PSV are usually content to sell for the right price, so there might be a deal that Arsenal can complete relatively easily, but it is a gamble to bring a youngster from the Netherlands straight into the Premier League. Raphinha is probably the cheaper and less risky signing, but it is to think he would choose them ahead of Barcelona.
