RUMOUR HAS IT: Manchester City chase Pepe

Manchester City are chasing Real Madrid defender Pepe.

The Daily Mail says City boss Manuel Pellegrini has been linked with Madrid defender Pepe, 30, but the Spaniards want £20m.

The Portuguese defender has been out of favour in recent weeks with preferring French 20-year-old Raphael Varane.





JUVE BATTLE ARSENAL FOR HIGUAIN

Juventus are battling Arsenal to land Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain.


Tuttosport says Juve are attempting to talk down Real's €25 million valuation, knowing that Arsenal have already met the asking price.

Higuain is said to favour a move to Turin, but like his fee, the striker's personal demands are also proving difficult for Juve to match.

The Argentine is demanding a clear €1 million-a-year more than his current €3.5 million Real salary.
