There could be a Hazard on Liverpool’s books next year, with Eden’s younger brother Thorgan tipped to make the move from Borussia Monchengladbach.

Whilst the Chelsea star continues to lavish praise on Real Madrid, the club of his dreams, Thorgan is impressing in the Bundesliga.

The winger has scored eight goals in 14 Bundesliga games, as well as notching six assists in a fast start to the season.

Since signing for Munchengladbach in 2015, Hazard had only managed 21 goals in 114 appearances and his recent form is attracting glances from Liverpool.

Liverpool are preparing to make an offer for the 25-year-old in January, according to Liga Financial.

They want the Belgian international to boost their forward live, but could face competition from Manchester United.

Spurs and Manchester United in for the Man.

Romanian forward Dennis Man is the subject of a transfer battle between Manchester United Tottenham, say The Sun.

The FCSB (Steaua Bucharest) striker might be a new name to many observers, but apparently his record of 21 goals in 78 games for Steaua means he is on the radar of Premier League clubs.

Man is only 20, has already made his debut for Romania and has not always been deployed in his favoured central position, yet it’s not a name that will get fans excited.

He joined Steaua in 2016 for a fee of £360,000, but they reportedly turned down a bid of £2.5m from Fenerbahce in the summer.

Roma are also interested and, perhaps, either of those two clubs would appear a more likely destination than the two Premier League top six clubs.

Ruben Neves

Wolves fans are used to seeing midfielder Ruben Neves linked with other clubs by now, this time it’s an Italian giant in the conversation.

Jorge Mendes’ relationship with Juventus is strong after Cristiano Ronaldo’s move from Real Madrid in the summer and now he may use that to take Neves to Turin, according to Calciomercato.

The Portuguese international has already proved a success in the Premier League and Mendes isn’t likely to let his man sit still.

Whether or not Juve do decide to move for Neves, who may not want to become a bit-part player there, remains to be seen, but there will certainly be bids for the midfielder in the coming months.
