Transfer news, rumours LIVE: Tottenham ‘demanding’ Anthony Martial as they play hardball with Manchester United over Toby Alderweireld

Welcome to the Evening Standard’s daily transfer round-up.

Transfer Rumours | Saturday May 26

Tottenham are reportedly hoping to strike a deal for Anthony Martial as Manchester United push to sign defender Toby Alderweireld.

We reported last week that the Martial was Tottenham’s No1 target this summer, and the Sun claim that Spurs are ‘demanding’ that acquiring French forward will be a condition of any move taking Alderweireld to Old Trafford.

Meanwhile, there are mixed reports over Manchester United quest to bolster their fullback options.

The Mirror report that United are preparing a £30m move for Valencia right-back Joao Cancelo, but are set to miss out on Juventus left back Alex Sandro.

Elsewhere, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool will face competition to sign Nice star Jean Michael Seri, with the Sun reporting that Borussia Dortmund and Napoli are interested in the Ivorian.
