Barcelona are finalising a contract offer for PSG's Lionel Messi, but will have to present it to La Liga first in order for them to approve that it fits within their financial restrictions. (Mundo Deportivo)

While PSG are in the hunt for Jude Bellingham as their post-Messi rebuild begins to take shape, it is more likely that they will instead sign Nice's Khephren Thuram or Lens' Seko Fofana. (Caught Offside)

Another club in the sweepstakes for Bellingham are Manchester City, who would also like to add Chelsea's Mateo Kovacic to their squad. (GiveMeSport)

Kovacic is just one name being linked with a Chelsea exit with the Blues likely in need of a summer clear-out in order to meet Financial Fair Play regulations. (Evening Standard)
