TOP STORY: Abraham targeted by Man United, Arsenal
Arsenal and Manchester United could be set to battle it out for the signature of England international Tammy Abraham this summer as they continue their search for a striker, reveals Corriere dello Sport.

The 24-year-old forward is reported to have caught the attention of a number of clubs last season, having enjoyed an impressive campaign at AS Roma with 17 goals in 37 Serie A appearances, but it is the Gunners and Erik ten Hag's United who are leading the race.

As Abraham joined the Giallorossi for around €40 million from Chelsea last season, the Blues will have the first option to sign Abraham should they wish to bring him back to Stamford Bridge for €80m. However, any move could prove difficult, with indications that Abraham is happy in Italy and has no plans to leave the Estadio Olimpico.

Abraham reportedly enjoyed working under Roma boss Jose Mourinho last season, as he helped secure the Europa Conference League title.

Lille's Renato Sanches is still Milan's priority in midfield, but Paris Saint-Germain have come in for the Portugal international, meaning they could be forced to look elsewhere. Milan will face competition from Benfica if they aim to bring in Fernandez, while River Plate don't want to see him leave but will be powerless if his €25m release clause is triggered.

19.16 BST: Napoli, Fiorentina, Monza and Besiktas are all interested in Hellas Verona midfielder Adrien Tameze, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
