Football rumours from the media
Origi, Rice and Milik are being talked about in Friday’s papers.
What the papers say
Wolves could look to bolster their strike force in January and have set their sights on Divock Origi, reports the Daily Mail. Origi, 25, has been on the books of the Anfield outfit since 2014 but has struggled for first-team action, making only two Premier League appearances this season.
Declan Rice could be on his way out of West Ham in the summer, says the Daily Express. The 21-year-old midfielder is said to be subject of interest from Manchester United, but the England international would prefer to head to Chelsea, the paper says.
Arsenal are said to be on the cusp of signing Hertha Berlin’s Omar Rekik, according to Metro. The 18-year-old defender was part of a deal which saw Matteo Geundouzi head to Germany on loan, the paper adds.
Everton will need to stump up £13.5million for the signature of Poland’s Arkadiusz Milik, the Sun says. The 26-year-old striker is out of contract in the summer but Napoli still want a return on the 35million euros they paid Ajax in 2016.
