Express says Mourinho happy to listen to offers for Martial. Think he would be great playing in his natural CF position.

He's played for Monaco and United, and can't get into a team Lingard plays often for. Have to question his desire, Martial is a basket case and he's not rated highly in france. Another case of too much too soon and his desire has dried up. Mbappe will stay at Monaco for few more seasons and grow, Martial should of done the same.

I'd have him here in a heartbeat mate.

We don't have the money to pay 40 million + on one player. We need to fill the squad and add first team quality and complete multiple signings. Maybe in 2 more windows when we have a very good team and we will be at stage spurs are at now and looking for one top quality Marquee we can do signings like this, we have to be also realistic.

Deportivo La Coruna want Perez back. Worth a cheap punt

why should you question his desire, he moved to united and was a regular starter if i recall. Since mourinho came in it's all changed for him and he may wish to move this summer, think it's a bit early to question his desire tbh.

Or more the case that he plays for a team who have Ibrahimovic in his position, he isn't a natural left winger.

Agree with @toffeejack here. Similar scenario with Schneiderlin. Martial is a class player and offers a completely different type of threat when on the field. Would love him here.

Completely agree, and moreover I think he and Rom could actually play together at times if Rom sticks around. Talk about adding more of a threat Koeman? This lad would do it.

People questioning whether Martial would be a good signing, im not even sure which is worse, thinking we could attract/afford or even thinking whether he would be good for us.

Indications that a massive % of season ticket holders are not planning to renew

...today's summary contains little that we don't already know of;

- Toffeeweb report Deulofeu is in limbo following his loan spell at AC Milan. No buy clause was inserted in the deal and the Italians are unlikely to seek a permanent move. At the moment it looks like the player will be back at USM FF for pre-season training. Barcelona have until 1st July to get Deulofeu's signature but a report in Spain suggests the player isn't keen on a return.

- 4th Official suggest Spurs want Barkley but another report indicates West Ham are prepared to break the bank to get him.

- 4th Official also link us with Harry Maguire.

- The Echo says Lucas Perez was close to joining Everton before Arsenal stepped in and we could be interested in him again this summer.

- Everton are 2-1 favourites with BetVictor to sign Winston Reid from West Ham.
