Arsenal have slapped a £50million asking price on Eddie Nketiah, talkSPORT understands.
The Gunners are willing to sell Nketiah if they bring in a new striker, despite the fact he featured regularly for Mikel Arteta in the Premier League last season.
Crystal Palace have historic interest in the England Under-21 international, while West Ham and Southampton are among other clubs also in the market for a new striker.
However, the Gunners’ valuation coupled with Nketiah’s wages, well in excess of £100,000-a-week having signed a new five-year deal in the summer of 2022, are likely to put off a lot of his suitors.
Arsenal are weighing up whether to add to their forward line after missing out on top target Benjamin Sesko.
Spurs serious about Eze
With Michael Olise poised to sign on the dotted line at Bayern Munich, Crystal Palace face a fresh fight to keep another of their star players.
Olise’s departure for Bavaria is a significant blow for manager Oliver Glasner, who was hoping to keep the Frenchman for at least one more season.
Glasner now risks losing Olise’s Selhurst Park teammate and England new-boy Eberechi Eze, who talkSPORT is told has serious interest from Tottenham.
Like Olise, it is believed Eze has a release clause of around £60m in his contract, which Spurs will look at activating once they have moved players off their wage bill.
Denmark midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, who impressed in the 1-1 draw with England on Thursday, is among the players Spurs are open to offers for along with AC Milan target Emerson Royal.
Tractor Boys' summer harvest
Ipswich are ramping up plans for their Premier League return with a busy summer expected at Portman Road.
The newly-promoted side, who have been handed a tough return to top flight football, are close to completing the signing of free agent right-back Ben Johnson following his exit from West Ham.
Reliable sources have also told talkSPORT they have identified Brighton goalkeeper Carl Rushworth as the man they want to be their top-flight number one.
Rushworth, 22, excelled on loan at Swansea last season while Johnson, 24, who has played 69 Premier League games, has rejected a new contract at West Ham to move to Portman Road.
Another player on Ipswich’s radar is Celtic’s former Tottenham defender Cameron Carter-Vickers, with manager Kieran McKenna clearly being backed in the transfer market after committing his future to the club.
Everton's Old Trafford clean-up
Keep an eye out for Everton potentially making moves for a couple of Manchester United players.
I’m told the Toffees are one of a number of clubs interested in right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who also wanted by Galatasaray.
It is also understood Sean Dyche is a fan of centre-back Victor Lindelof, who is free to leave Old Trafford as United look to revamp their squad.
