All that and more in another edition of Rumour Mill!
BLUES CHASE SUPERSTAR DUO
Chelsea are holding talks with AC Milan and Juventus over Gonzalo Higuain while also chasing Lyon star Nabil Fekir.
According to The Sun, Higuain could join the Blues on loan in January with Alvaro Morata heading to the San Siro in a short-term swap deal.
The Argentine is currently on loan at Milan for the season, but with the Italians struggling to adhere to FFP rules, may offload him.
And with just 18 months left on Fekir’s current contract at Lyon, the Frenchman could be tempted to join the Blues — if the fee is right, of course.

Sancho earned his first England cap this season as he continues to justify his move away from Manchester City in 2017.
The 18-year-old has scored seven times in 24 appearances for Dortmund this season to become one of the first names on the teamsheet.
And his form hasn’t gone unnoticed either as the likes of Real, Barca and Bayern are all lining up to make their move come January.

Gueye and Fabinho are the latest names on PSG’s growing wishlist along with Southampton star Mario Lemina, Frenkie De Jong, Abdoulaye Doucoure and Diadie Samassekou.
CHERRIES PAIR ON THE WAY OUT
Bournemouth forwards Josh King and Callum Wilson could be snapped up in the January transfer window.
King will be on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s radar next month, after the Manchester United caretaker insisted he “will have an input” on transfers.
According to The Sun, Solskjaer is a massive fan of the fellow Norwegian — the pair worked together when hen the striker was coming up through the ranks at Old Trafford.
King isn’t the only man establishing himself on the South Coast, with Wilson’s recent form earning him an England call-up.
The Blues are said to be confident of securing a deal for the one cap, one goal, Three Lions star, with Sarri hoping Wilson can finally solve their striker struggles.
