Premier League Transfer Speculation Round-Up

The Premier League season is drawing to its conclusion, but the planning for the next campaign is already under way according to the transfer speculation stories in the Sunday newspapers.

Liverpool are monitoring a striker currently in a relegation battle, while a Manchester United goalkeeper could be on his way out of Old Trafford.

One La Liga midfielder may be about to cross the North London divide and an England defender could be on his way to Italy, claim Sunday newspaper reports.

Read on to find out more.

Loic Remy

Queens Park Rangers appear doomed to drop out of the Premier League this season, leaving question marks over the futures of a number of players.

One man who has impressed since his arrival at Loftus Road in January has been striker Loic Remy, who could be the subject of a bid by Liverpool in the summer.

The Daily Star Sunday reports that the 26-year-old France international is a target for the Anfield club this summer and could act as an insurance policy for the possible loss of Luis Suarez.

Remy joined QPR ahead of Newcastle in January, but the Tyneside club and Arsenal would also be interested in the forward, claims the Star.

Alex Song

Alex Song has been away from North London for less than a year, but the player is already poised for a return, claims the Sunday Mirror.

The Cameroon international joined Barcelona in a £15 million deal from Arsenal last August but has failed to make an impact on the Camp Nou first team this season.

Now Tottenham are preparing a move for the 25-year-old although Arsene Wenger is advising Song to stay at Barcelona for another season, claims the newspaper.

Micah Richards

Manchester City and England defender Micah Richards is a man in demand according to newspaper reports.

The 24-year-old has only recently returned to action after a lengthy injury absence, but he has fallen behind Pablo Zabaleta in the pecking order at the Etihad Stadium.

Richards, who has also been linked with Liverpool, is now a target for AC Milan and former City teammate Mario Balotelli has advised the club to consider a move for the defender, according to The Sun.

Anders Lindegaard

Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard is the subject of strong interest from West Ham United and Fulham, reports the Sunday People.

The 29-year-old shared the goalkeeping duties with David de Gea for the first half of the current Premier League campaign, but he has now fallen behind the Spaniard in the Old Trafford first-team selection.

The Denmark international could now be on his way to London in the summer, with both West Ham and Fulham on the search for another goalkeeper, according to the newspaper.

Kevin Strootman

PSV Eindhoven and Holland midfielder Kevin Strootman has emerged as a target for Everton this summer, reports the Sunday Express.

The newspaper claims the 23-year-old Dutch international is being monitored by the Goodison Park club as a possible replacement for Marouane Fellaini, who seems destined to leave the club this summer.

Chelsea and Manchester United have also been linked with Strootman, according to the newspaper.

Everton have also been linked with a move for FC Copenhagen striker Andreas Cornelius, although that move will depend on whether manager David Moyes stays at the club, according to the Sunday People.
