Ivan Toney in shock link with Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham preparing move for Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo in January - Paper Round

Could Ivan Toney reunite with Thomas Frank at Tottenham Hotspur? A report in Saturday's newspapers suggests the striker could make a shock return to the Premier League. Elsewhere, West Ham are preparing a January move for Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo, and Hertha Berlin's 16-year-old sensation Kennet Eichhorn is now being linked with a move to Arsenal.

Toney in shock link with Spurs

Ivan Toney could be set for a shock reunion with former Brentford boss Thomas Frank at Tottenham.

The 29-year-old left England for Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli in the summer of 2024 after a hugely successful time with The Bees where he scored 72 goals in 141 appearances.

Toney has not featured with England since his departure, but reports suggest he could make a return to the Premier League in a bid to boost his chances of going to next summer's World Cup.

"Ivan Toney could be handed a mid-season World Cup lifeline after Premier League interest in the striker emerges," The Sun writes.

"The former Brentford man continues to score goals in Saudi Arabia but is not currently in the mix for his country under Thomas Tuchel with just over six months to go until USA 2026 despite scoring 11 times in 15 matches this season.

"Toney, 29, may yet get the chance to prove himself back in England, though, after talkSPORT report that Thomas Frank is open to signing the striker again.

"With Spurs struggling for goals and Toney keen to push his case again, the two could scratch each other's backs.

"It is claimed that with Richarlison being a long-term target for Al-Ahli, who Toney has scored 41 times for in 18 months and just 59 matches, movement could follow."

West Ham serious about Mainoo

West Ham want to sign Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United on loan in January.

Mainoo has struggled to establish himself in Ruben Amorim’s midfield so far this season, leading to speculation about his future at Old Trafford.

According to a report in The Sun, West Ham are ready to offer the England international a "guaranteed starting spot".

The outlet writes: "West Ham have emerged as suitors for Manchester United starlet Kobbie Mainoo over a potential six-month loan move in January.

"Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has revealed that West Ham are reportedly ready to offer Mainoo a ‘guaranteed starting spot’ to coax the youngster away from Old Trafford until the end of the season.

"Romano said on his Here We Go Podcast: ‘Kobbie would still be open for a loan move in the January transfer window.

"'He would like to go and play on a straight loan, six months and then back to Man Utd.

"'Now it depends on the club. It depends on if Man Utd will find another player in the middle.

"'It depends on what Ruben Amorim wants to do, because the desire for him would be to keep the same squad in terms of players leaving in the January window.

"'West Ham for example for sure are offering a guaranteed starting spot to Mainoo."

"'Despite Mainoo’s reported interest in a move away, SunSport understands that the club have no intention of allowing him to leave in the January window.'"

Eichhorn also wanted by Arsenal

The Sun claims Manchester United and Arsenal are leading the chase for 16-year-old midfielder Kennet Eichhorn.

Friday's Paper Round suggested The Red Devils and Liverpool are interested in the Hertha Berlin star - but it appears Arsenal are also among the teams interested.

Eichhorn is an under-17 international with Germany and has featured in nine of his club's games so far this season.

The outlet notes: "Manchester United and Arsenal are leading the chase for a German schoolboy talent who is already being compared to World Cup and Champions League winner Toni Kroos.

"The Premier League giants are plotting moves for 16-year-old Hertha Berlin midfield sensation Kennet Eichhorn even though he can’t leave Germany until 2027.

"That has caught the attention of some of the biggest clubs in the world with United, Liverpool, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain having sent scouts to watch him live.

"Sport-Bild report that Arsenal, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are also keen."

How to watch and live stream Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United in the Premier League on TNT Sports and discovery+ - date, kick-off time

Here is all the information you need to know to catch every second of the Premier League clash between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United on Saturday. Both sides have had a mixed start to the season. Spurs are currently sixth in the Premier League table after a 1-0 defeat against Chelsea last time out. United are eighth are their 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest last weekend.

One of the Premier League’s most iconic fixtures will return to our screens when Tottenham Hotspur welcome Manchester United to north London on Saturday.

This weekend’s early kick-off will see Spurs and The Red Devils go head-to-head at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and both sides will be desperate for all three points after mixed starts to the season.

Thomas Frank’s side fell to a 1-0 defeat against bitter rivals Chelsea in their previous Premier League fixture, leaving them in sixth place in the table.

To make matters worse, Djed Spence and Micky van de Ven appeared to snub their manager as they walked off the pitch.

However, Van de Ven scored one of the goals of the season as Spurs bounced back with a 4-0 win over Copenhagen in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

Ruben Amorim’s side are eighth after a rollercoaster start to the campaign.

Mickey van de Ven compared to Lionel Messi after ‘comic book’ solo goal for Tottenham Hotspur in UEFA Champions League tie with FC Copenhagen

Van de Ven compared to Messi after ‘comic book’ solo goal - TNT Sports
Description

With Tottenham Hotspur down to 10 men in the second half while 2-0 up against FC Copenhagen in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, there was perhaps a hint of angst in the north London air that Thomas Frank's side might let their lead slip. Up stepped Micky van de Ven to allay their fears in perhaps the most stunning way possible, as he embarked on a "sensational" solo run to notch Spurs' third.

Micky van de Ven left the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in a state of shock as he netted an "absolutely sensational" solo goal on Tuesday, with Thomas Frank comparing the defender to Lionel Messi.

Spurs had worked their way into a 2-0 lead against FC Copenhagen in their UEFA Champions League clash by the 51st minute, but Brennan Johnson's 55th-minute sending off threatened to derail Thomas Frank's side, with Copenhagen attempting to stretch the game and reduce their deficit.

Up stepped Van de Ven - the centre back who is Spurs' top goalscorer (5) this season, to establish a three-goal cushion in "unbelievable" fashion.

"That could be goal of the season, definitely," Frank said after being asked about the defender's wonderful strike.

"It was like Lionel Messi transformed into a centre-back, the way Micky ran through everyone. Fantastic goal."

The Dutchman collected the ball just on the edge of his own penalty area after Mohamed Elyounoussi was dispossessed by Joao Palhinha.

From here, the Spurs defender produced what will surely go down as an all-time classic Champions League moment - one that will "shake the world," according to former Spurs goalkeeper Joe Hart.

Within a few strides, Van de Ven had beaten five recovering Copenhagen men with his renowned blistering pace, bursting through the middle, seemingly with a force field around him.

His scintillating speed left Copenhagen's right centre-half, Gabriel Pereira, out of the question. It was now just a case of whether Pantelis Hatzidiakos could cover the ground before Van de Ven was in on goal. But before the defender could even get within a few yards of the Spurs man, he had unleashed a fierce left-footed strike in at the near post, which sent the home crowd into pandemonium.

It took just about nine seconds for Van de Ven to dispatch his strike after racing from the edge of his own penalty area - a goal so supreme it drew goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario to sprint from his own goal to celebrate with the Spurs players - despite appearing to be nursing a slight hamstring issue.

"That is absolutely sensational from Micky van de Ven," Darren Fletcher said on TNT Sports commentary. "The pace, the power, the finish.

"Tottenham's leading scorer with a candidate for goal of the season. That was men against boys. He looked like the older lad in the playground running through the younger ones.

"It was such a physical mismatch. Look at this, just enjoy this. I'm going to make the claim now: you're going to have to have a hell of a goal for that not to be goal of the season, and it's only November."

'That will shake the world'

Joe Hart was equally stunned by the developments at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium: "Wow, wow, wow. This is one of the best displays I've seen from a centre-half. Dominant.

"Saw his chance, charged through Copenhagen. They didn't even look like they wanted to challenge him. Petrified of his pace and power. He's on the edge of his box. How many around him? Four, five. Not standing a chance. Incredible finish at the end of that run."

He added: "That's one of those that will shake the world. Everyone will see that goal; admittedly, this might not be the game everyone was watching tonight. That goal from Micky van de Ven, you'll see that over and over again.

Joe Cole, meanwhile, said Van de Ven had just displayed an "old-school Buffalo Bills run," and does not feel a better goal will be scored this season.

"Wow," Cole remarked on TNT Sports' UEFA Champions League Goals Show Xtra. "That is comic book incredible.

"It is unbelievable. I think the boys nailed it. You've just seen the goal of the season. That whole place will be lit up watching that.

"He is an unbelievable footballer. Just when you think you've seen everything in footballers, you find a centre half who can dribble the length of the pitch, because he does it consistently."

Watching on as Vicario joined the celebrations, Cole added: "His hamstring is tight, and he felt the need to sprint 100 yards to celebrate, that's how good that goal was!"

Van de Ven's heroics put an emphatic end to speculation over disharmony at Spurs after he appeared to snub Frank when being withdrawn as a substitute in the Premier League defeat to Chelsea.

Spurs' 4-0 win means they have collected eight points from their first four matches in Europe - temporarily landing them seventh in the league phase standings.

GITTENS MISSES A SITTER

Spurs make a hash of a free-kick and should have been punished.

Chelsea break as Fernandez finds Pedro who squares for Gittens, but the youngster blazes over from five yards out.

SIX MINUTES ADDED ON

Spurs have six minutes to find something. The home fans are getting desperate and claim handball against James as he controls an awkward ball into the box.

NETO DOWN WITH CRAMP

It has been a very physical game and Neto is feeling it in these last 10 minutes.

He receives some treatment and Spurs fans are unhappy that their team gave the ball back.

TEN MINUTES REMAINING

It feels like there could be a final twist in this one. Let’s hope so anyway. Spurs are yet to create anything of note in this second half.

However, Chelsea have failed to finish them off.

WASTEFUL SPURS

Another set-piece opportunity for Spurs. However, Porro and Kudus play it short and Cucurella chases it down and wins the ball. You can understand the frustration of the home fans.

FERNANDEZ HEADS OVER

That could have easily been 2-0. A lofted cross from James finds the head of Fernandez who fails to keep his effort down and it sails over the bar.

Description

ALMOST AN OWN GOAL

Elanga volleys the ball across goal and it strikes the covering Danso on the side of the head, deflecting just wide of his own goal.

CHANGES FOR NEWCASTLE

The hosts make a triple change with an eye on closing this one out and keeping their title defence going into the next round. Trippier, Osula and Joelinton replace Krafth, the excellent Woltemade and Willock.

MUCH BETTER FROM RICHARLISON

An early cross into the box is met by Richarlison, who turns a clever effort on target and Ramsdale makes the save. The hosts go straight back up the other end and earn themselves a corner.

NO CORNER

A deep cross drifts out of play and Spurs appeal for a corner, suggesting it clipped Burn on the way out, but I’m not sure it did and the referees aren’t either.

GREAT SAVE RAMSDALE!

Spurs break and Spence finds Johnson, who squares it for Xavi. It looks like he’s going to shoot, but he spots Sarr arriving and lays it off to him, with Ramsdale making a stunning stop to prevent it finding the bottom corner, and Bergvall’s on his toes as Johnson turns the loose ball across the face of goal. Spurs get the corner in and Ramsdale punches that clear too.

GLIMPSES OF PURE CLASS

Woltemade pulls in three defenders before playing Willock in on the break. He’s got a lot of ground to cover to get into the final third, but still should do better with support arriving and Spurs stretched.

THE FINAL PASS IS OVERHIT

Xavi’s face is a picture of frustration as he does well as part of a Spurs move that sees them win the ball with the high press and then break into the final third through the Dutchman, but his final pass is overhit, when it really wasn’t a tricky ball into the path of Johnson. The home fans enjoyed that.

THE ASSISTANT MAKES THE DECISION

Tonali hauls Xavi back by the neck of the Spurs man’s shirt and at first the ref allows play to continue, but the assistant lets him know it’s a foul and Spurs get the free-kick.

GOAL! NEWCASTLE UNITED 2-0 TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR (NICK WOLTEMADE)

It’s a second for Newcastle and it’s the big striker Woltemade who gets it, nodding in Willock’s cross. It was a nice move from the hosts, but it’s a big error from the Spurs keeper Kinsky, who comes charging off his line to try and meet it, but punches thin air and Woltemade’s soft header loops into an unguarded net. He won’t want to see that again. 2-0.

HUGE CHANCE MISSED

Willock wins a header and sends it looping harmlessly wide of the far post. He either should have tested the keeper in a great position, or cushion it across to the unmarked Woltemade, but did neither. Perhaps he got caught in two minds, but it is not good.

HALF-TIME: HOSTS LEAD AT THE BREAK

The whistle goes and Newcastle head in 1-0 up at half-time in a high-tempo and hard-fought game at St James’ Park. Newcastle have been excellent in patches, but Spurs were much better in the back-end of that half and we could have a game on after the interval, stay tuned!

CHANCES FOR SPURS

The ball drops for Richarlison but his header is straight at Ramsdale, and moments later Xavi Simons has a crack from outside the box, which takes a nick off the defender and a touch from Ramsdale over the bar, so the fact that a goal-kick is given just further riles a Spurs side close to losing their heads with the referee.

MUCH BETTER FROM SPURS

The final pass hasn’t really fallen for them, but Spurs have looked way better going forward since they went behind, offering plenty of threat. They have some attacking options on the bench, although Odobert isn’t one of them. That makes it 11 first-team squad players unavailable for Spurs right now.

LET IT FLOW

Spence drives forward down the left and has three players on him. He’s bumped and barged and looks to be hauled down by Tonali, but the ref waves play on. The officials are certainly letting play flow tonight, let’s say that.

SHOULD BE A SECOND

Newcastle should be two up. Spurs fail to clear a long throw and Newcastle get the ball back in. Thiaw meets at the back post but plays it almost sideways, shanking it unintentionally to Barnes, who manages to get a boot up to it but can’t keep his effort down.

Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United target Porto striker, €100 million price tag for Vinicius Junior - Euro Transfer News

In Tuesday's Euro Transfer News, a trio of English clubs have targeted a Porto striker, while Real Madrid have slapped a €100 million price tag on Vinicius Junior. That is not all, though. Borussia Dortmund are keeping an eye on a River Plate prodigy and three Serie A sides are eager to sign Kim Min-jae from German giants Bayern Munich when the transfer window opens.

Arsenal, Spurs and Newcastle target Porto sensation

Tottenham Hotspur will reportedly face stiff competition from Newcastle United and Arsenal in their bid to sign Porto’s Samu Aghehowa.

Spanish outlet Fichajes believes the striker has caught the eye of the three Premier League giants after scoring 11 goals in 14 appearances across all competitions so far this season.

Newcastle and The Gunners both bolstered their attacking options in the summer, signing Nick Woltemade and Victor Gyokeres, respectively.

However, the reports from Spain suggest that they could still try and hijack Spurs’ move for Aghehowa.

"Samu Aghehowa's name has become one of the most coveted names in the European market," read the article.

"The 21-year-old striker, who boasts a spectacular goalscoring record with FC Porto , is attracting urgent interest from English clubs.

"Tottenham has already accelerated its moves, but faces stiff competition: Arsenal and Newcastle United are also anxiously monitoring his contract situation.

"January could determine his fate, as Porto faces financial pressures that could force them to consider offers even below his release clause."

€100 million price tag for Vinicius

Spanish website SPORT have said it would take €100 million to convince Real Madrid to sell Brazilian star Vinicius Junior.

The forward has been linked with a move away from Los Blancos after he was substituted during El Clasico.

Vinicius has been a key player for Madrid in recent years and finished second in the 2024 Ballon d’Or rankings behind Manchester City midfielder Rodri.

"With a contract until 2027, he himself halted his renewal in the summer, and according to reports from the player's entourage, his departure is beginning to gain traction," read the article.

"Either a sale in the next summer transfer window, valued at an affordable €100 million, or even forcing his release in 2027 without Real Madrid receiving any financial compensation.

"It would be the opposite of what happened with Mbappe and PSG, except that Vinicius is a player whose European career has only been tied to Real Madrid, which paid €45 million for his signing."

Dortmund keeping eye on River Plate prodigy

Journalist Florian Plettenberg reports that Borussia Dortmund are keeping an eye on River Plate’s Juan Cruz Meza.

The 17-year-old sensation is one of the most exciting prospects in South America after making 21 appearances across all competitions so far this season.

Cruz Meza’s contract with River Plate is set to expire in December 2026, and Plettenberg believes that several clubs in Europe are keen to sign him.

"Borussia Dortmund are also closely monitoring Juan Cruz Meza," he posted on X, formerly Twitter.

"BVB have carried out several live scouting visits on site. The 17-year-old attacking midfielder is under contract with River Plate until December 2026, and many top clubs from Europe are interested in him."

Serie A sides go after Bayern defender

Journalist Christian Falk has said that three Serie A sides are interested in signing Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-jae.

The South Korea international joined the German giants in the summer of 2023 after impressing with Napoli.

However, Kim has only made nine appearances across all competitions so far this season and could now be set for a return to Italy. Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan are all reportedly interested in a deal.

Why title challenge 'not looking likely' for Chelsea

Tudor sacked following Lazio loss

"Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-jae could be in demand in the 2026 summer window, although a potential exit in January cannot be ruled out," read the article.

"Min-jae has dropped down the pecking order at the club behind Dayot Upamecano and Jonathan Tah this season."

Euro Transfer News - Manchester United target Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski, Tottenham Hotspur back in for Ivan Toney

In Wednesday's Euro Transfer News round-up, Manchester United are reportedly targeting Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski, and Tottenham Hotspur could be in for Ivan Toney. That is not all though, Julian Alvarez is supposedly edging closer to a sensational move to Barcelona from Atletico Madrid, while The Red Devils are apparently also keen on 24-year-old Roma and France star Manu Kone.

United target Barcelona's Lewandowski

The Daily Star are saying that Manchester United could try to sign Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski when his contract with the Spanish giants comes to an end.

The former Bayern Munich star’s deal with the La Liga club is set to end at the conclusion of the 2025/26 campaign.

Lewandowski is still scoring goals at the highest level, having found the back of the net four times in nine appearances across all competitions so far this term.

The Daily Star is reporting that Barcelona have the option to extend the 37-year-old’s contract by another year, but they are yet to activate the clause.

"Ruben Amorim could bolster Manchester United's frontline once more next summer by bringing in Robert Lewandowski from Barcelona." read the article.

"The Pole's deal at the Camp Nou is due to run out at the end of this campaign, although the Spanish giants do have an option to extend his stay by a further 12 months.

"Whether the Catalan club will activate that clause remains uncertain, with worries surrounding Lewandowski's advancing age.

"Having celebrated his 37th birthday in the summer, there are reportedly reservations about whether the frontman still has the energy to execute Hansi Flick's demanding high-intensity pressing game."

Tottenham back in for Toney

Reports in the Spanish media have suggested that Tottenham could try to sign England striker Ivan Toney when the transfer window reopens.

Fichajes are saying that Spurs are prepared to make a bid in the region of €60 million in an attempt to bring the former Brentford star back to the Premier League.

Toney played a starring role in helping establish The Bees in the English top flight during his time in West London.

Now he could be set for a sensational return to England, having joined Saudi Arabian side Al Ahli in August 2024.

"Ivan Toney continues to be in top form with Saudi Arabia's Al Ahli, but his return to the Premier League radar has gained momentum in recent weeks," read the article.

"The strongest lead points to Tottenham, who are reportedly willing to make an offer close to 60 million euros to sign the 29-year-old English striker.

"Tottenham have lost key players in attack and are looking to Ivan Toney as a reliable alternative to bolster their forward line."

Alvarez on move again

Julian Alvarez is becoming frustrated at Atletico Madrid, according to Spanish website SPORT, with Barcelona reportedly waiting in the wings.

Madrid were beaten 4-0 by Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night, and they are currently fourth in La Liga, eight points behind leaders Real Madrid.

Alvarez joined Atletico from Manchester City in the summer of 2024 after a successful stint in the Premier League.

Now, Barca are apparently keen on adding the Argentina international to their impressive list of attacking options.

"Julian is starting to get frustrated at Atlético and has already shown it publicly at the start of the season, despite not wanting to talk about his future, something that those close to him have done," read the article.

"The forward is beginning to feel increasingly clear that if the Atletico project doesn't pan out and he can't compete for silverware, the best thing to do will be to find another team in Europe.

"And Barca is closely monitoring this decision, which could be decisive in their chances of signing him.

"The Argentine international opted for Atletico, convinced by Diego Simeone and the firm commitment of the red-and-white club, which paid almost 80 million euros for him."

United set to go after Kone

Graeme Bailey believes Manchester United have set their sights on France international Manu Kone.

The 24-year-old has made nine appearances across all competitions for Roma so far this season.

United have struggled to strike the balance in their midfield since Ruben Amorim’s arrival at the club.

Bailey says they have an eye on Kone ahead of the January transfer window.

"Manchester United doing work on their 2026 options," he posted on X, formerly Twitter.

"Manu Kone is a player they have known for a number of years and he is now back on their radar after impressing at Roma."
