Exodus at the Emirates?

Sources say a major shakeup can be expected, with manager Unai Emery to get rid of Mesut Ozil, Shkodran Mustafi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan to make way for new players.

One of the reasons for this is the Gunner's failure to make the lucrative Champions League next season, which has left them with only around 40 million pounds for new signings.

Neymar longs for Barca return

PSG forward Neymar has reportedly asked to return to Barcelona, amid rumours the Catalan side are keen to bring back their former player.

The Brazilian has had a successful spell in Paris, but is frustrated that he's failed to become the club's star attraction.

Barca are said to be stepping up efforts to re-sign Neymar, and are even apparently prepared to send either Philippe Coutinho or Ousmane Dembele over to the French club, in a player-plus-cash deal.

Kane decision today

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is expected to make a decision today, whether to start Harry Kane in the Champions League final against Liverpool on Sunday morning. 

The striker appears to have recovered from his ankle injury, but has not played a competitive match since picking up the problem in April.

Kane himself says he's fit and ready, but Pochettino needs to decide whether to start with the player, or hand him a place on the bench.

Conte bound for Inter

Inter Milan have confirmed that Luciano Spalletti has been sacked as manager of the Serie A side. 

This, despite guiding the team into next season's Champions League. 

Spalletti is widely expected to be replaced by ex-Chelsea boss Antonio Conte, who's been out of a job since leaving The Blues last July.
