Liverpool have been in contact with Carlos Tevez’s agent as the forward’s future at Manchester United hangs in the balance.
(The Sun)

Mentioned this back in March. There is no better way for Liverpool to tip the balance of power in their direction than to pony up the dough and sign Carlos Tevez next season.

Inter Milan are interested in signing Chelsea midfielder Jon Obi Mikel. (The Sun)

With Patrick Viera on his last legs and Jon Obi Mikel playing second fiddle to Michael Essien at Chelsea, there is a match here. Would Chelsea do business with Inter Milan however is the real question.

Manchester United will move for Wigan’s Antonio Valencia if winger Cristiano Ronaldo leaves Old Trafford. (Daily Mail)

Always love how these rumours appears the week United face the player in question.

Liverpool will make a £12m bid for Middlesbrough’s Stewart Downing at the end of the season. (Daily Mail)

I’m sure a couple of teams didn’t mind Newcastle’s win yesterday as it means Downing will be on move come this summer.

Bolton have slapped a £20m price tag on defender Gary Cahill to put off interest from Arsenal. (Daily Mail)

Bolton could of slapped a 10 million price tag on Gary Cahill to scare off Arsenal. To be fair to Cahill he has done his career some good since coming over from Aston Villa in 2008.

Aston Villa manager Martin O’Neill says next season’s Europa League - the new name for the Uefa Cup - has too many games in the schedule. (The Sun)

It annoys me how English clubs treat the Uefa Cup like a red headed step child. Everyone knows the money is in the Premiership but across Europe winning the Uefa Cup is a great feat. In England teams like Villa run out a youth side against CSKA Moscow in the Uefa Cup.

AC Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti will need reassurances about his status before he would consider taking the Chelsea job, having spoken to the Blues last summer before they appointed Luis Felipe Scolari instead. (The Times)

One thing I could safely say is if Ancelotti lead Chelsea to a 5th place finish like he did with A.C Milan last year he would be sent packing in a hurry.

HAHAHAHAHA, 20 million for Gary Cahill? My lord, what is football coming to?

I doubt Chelsea would let Mikel go to Inter with Mourihno there, and especially after all they went through to get him (ie stealing him from United).
