Transfer Zone: Philippe Coutinho linked with sensational move to Arsenal
Cristiano Ronaldo moving to Manchester City, Tammy Abraham's move to Roma and Arsenal fans moan about being linked with Philippe Coutinho.
Philippe Coutinho
The Barcelona ace has apparently been offered a return to England and Arsenal are willing to do a swap deal with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang going the other way.
But the Arsenal fans really are a hard bunch to please, aren't they.
We lack physicality (especially pace) and directness in the final third. Swapping Auba for Coutinho is the worst thing to do ever lol

If this happens we're truly rubbed. Man can't score goals so how does Auba for Coutinho make any sense https://t.co/Zm1WutnrNH

Manchester United
Ole wants to extend the contracts of five players, according to our sister website Football365.
With David de Gea on an eye-watering weekly wage of £375,000, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to improve the salaries of Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Paul Pogba and Luke Shaw to avoid disharmony in the squad.
The quintet are believed to be earning an average wage of £200,000 per week while Pogba is on around £290,000.
How do they survive? While Pogba's future is unclear, at least we know United fan Kevin would never have left.
@paulpogba Get and sign that new contract ASAP NOW. you're playing for the Biggest and Best club in the Whole World. There's thousand's of people who would've given there all to of had the opportunity to play for MANCHESTER UNITED. ME INCLUDED. I'd of NEVER LEFT

Cristiano Ronaldo
Should Daniel Levy block the path of Harry Kane's move to Manchester City, Cristiano Ronaldo may be the short-term solution for Pep.
Ronaldo could be available for as little as £25million with Juventus wanting him off their wage bill, Corriere Dello Sport claims.
Ronaldo will never go to City who has never won a CL title,has a Messi friend coach and most importantly rivals of his former club Man Utd

Tammy Abraham
Throughout the summer there has been speculation on the future of Abraham, especially since the arrival of Romelu Lukaku at Stamford Bridge.
It's official, Abraham will be playing for Jose Mourinho's Roma and here is how to say his name correctly...
