ESL giants Chelsea want to take Niklas Sule off wee Bayern Munich, who are currently inconveniencing mighty Spurs…
NAGELSMANN HEADS SPURS WISHLIST
Amid all the carnage of Monday, you could be forgiven for letting it escape you that Tottenham fired Jose Mourinho. Under normal circumstances, the morning after would be dominated by whispers of a replacement, but these are not normal circumstances.
The Guardian says Daniel Levy is looking for his new manager to be ‘modern in outlook and have strong credentials in the development of young players’. A coach like, say, Mauricio Pochettino.
Roberto Martinez and Gareth Southgate are both mentioned, as is Julian Nagelsmann, and it is the German who the Daily Mail claims is the leading candidate.
It could cost Spurs up to £10million to get Nagelsmann out of his RB Leipzig contract, which is a pittance really, especially to a Super-Duper League club. But their biggest problem is that Bayern Munich, a comparative minnow to the mighty Tottenham, are also looking for a manager this summer and they remain favourites to land the 33-year-old.

BAYERN EYE REAL, LIVERPOOL TARGET
Little parochial Bayern, in their poxy domestic league, also have the nerve to get in the way of far more important clubs and their more important pursuits of Eduardo Camavinga.
The Rennes midfielder has been linked with Real Madrid, Liverpool, Man Utd and Chelsea of late but France Football reckons Bayern are looking to get in ahead of everyone with a swift approach for the teenager.
Rennes will almost certainly sell Camavinga this summer as he approaches the final year of his contract with little prospect of a renewal.

CHELSEA CHASE SULE
Chelsea could but Bayern back in their box with their interest in Niklas Sule.
The Athetic reports that Thomas Tuchel wants one of the Blues’ major signings this summer to be a centre-back, and Sule’s name is creeping towards the top of their list.
Sule is also approaching the last year of his deal but, unlike David Alaba and Jerome Boateng, Bayern are keen to convince the 25-year-old to recommit.

HAMMERS EDGING EN-NESYRI RACE
Youssef En-Nesyri’s agent is getting busy. On Monday, the Sevilla striker was being linked with Manchester United and Liverpool. This morning, there is said to be interest from another top-four contender.
According to La Razon, West Ham are now leading the race to sign the 23-year-old.
The Hammers reportedly failed in a £27million offer for En-Nesyri in January, and Sevilla could fetch around £40million for the 16-goal forward this summer.
