Transfer news and rumours LIVE: Sterling tells Guardiola he wants to leave Man City for Barcelona

Sevilla are determined to sign Julian Alvarez from River Plate in January, says Fichajes.

The 21-year-old has impressed in Argentina and Sevilla director Monchi is an admirer of his, but Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are also eyeing him.

Rennes star Jeremy Doku is being monitored by several top teams, including Barcelona.

The 19-year-old's stock is on the rise and he is said to be valued at around €50 million by the French side.

But Barca's chances of landing him are slim, according to the player's father, David, who told Het Laatste Nieuws the teenager will likely go elsewhere.

He said: "That doesn't seem right to me. I don't think Barcelona are in a position to spend big transfer fees right now. There are many other clubs that want Jérémy, although I can't say anything about that."

Atletico Madrid also looking at Arsenal striker

Barcelona and Manchester City are among the clubs considering making an offer for Alexandre Lacazette.

Fichajes claims the pair plus Atletico Madrid have him on their list of targets, with City looking for a new attacker since losing Sergio Aguero and Barca determined to strengthen in attack.
