Manchester United could be set to offload midfielder Marouane Fellaini to Serie A outfit Napoli, according to the Daily Star.

The agent of the Belgium international has reportedly met with officials in Italy and personal terms have already been agreed but the Red Devils are still holding out for the 18million price-tag on the former Everton star's head.

Fellaini's expected exit could start a massive exodus at Old Trafford with manager Louis Van Gaal also set to axe Shinji Kagawa, Nani and Anderson in a big shake-up.

At Newcastle, Alan Pardew's efforts to land Alexandre Lacazette look to have hit a major stumbling block after the Newcastle Chronicle believe the striker is set to sign a new contract with the French club.

The Magpies have been a long admirer of the forward and reportedly made a fresh 10million offer for the 23-year-old, but Lyon are said to be close to extending the Frenchman's stay.

There looks to be some positive news for Atletico Madrid with the Daily Star reporting that manager Diego Simeone is lining up a triple 30million swoop for Santi Cazorla, Fernando Torres and Javier Hernandez.

The latter has added to speculation over his future at Manchester United by saying "only God knows" where he will be next season, while the two Spaniards look to have dropped down the pecking order at respective clubs Arsenal and Chelsea.

Tottenham are expected to make an improved offer for Southampton ace Morgan Schneiderlin, according to the Times, after the midfielder has reportedly asked for a transfer.

Saints chairman Ralph Krueger insisted that the Frenchman would not be joining the Saints' summer exodus - comments which were met with anger by the 24-year-old.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is now hoping to take advantage of the relationship breakdown and swoop with a bid believed to be in the region of 10-12million.

Finally, Arsenal look to have moved back into pole position for Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira after Bayern Munich are hoping to land the German on a free transfer, according to the Daily Mirror.

The 27-year-old's deal at the Bernabeu is due to expire next summer and the Champions League holders are keen to bring in some money rather than potentially lose him for nothing to Bayern in 12 months. So, with the Gunners set to offer 27million this summer, a deal could be on.

Manager Arsene Wenger is said to be very keen on signing the German as Arsenal look to add some much-needed steel to the heart of their midfield.
