Everton manager Ronald Koeman has offered exiled Chelsea striker Diego Costa a surprise escape route out of Stamford Bridge.

Man City boss Pep Guardiola was typically non-committal when asked for an update on his side's interest in Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez today.

He said: 'He’s an Arsenal player, like Mbappe is a Monaco player, like Johnny Evans is a West Bromwich Albion player.

'You have to ask Alexis. He’s a player and the other clubs have to talk about it. Normally I don’t talk about players from other clubs.'

Ronald Koeman has been speaking to the media ahead of Everton's Premier League clash with Chelsea on Sunday.

Despite already adding Michael Keane, Davy Klaasen, Jordan Pickford, Sandro Ramirez, Wayne Rooney and Gylfi Sigurdsson (that's not all!), Koeman wants to bring in a striker.

In-demand Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe is poised to return to Ligue 1 action against Marseille.

The 18-year-old striker, who scored 26 goals in all competitions for Monaco last season, missed out when the principality club beat Dijon last weekend, amid speculation linking him to Paris Saint-Germain.

Injury was cited as the reason Mbappe - also a rumoured target for Real Madrid and Arsenal this summer - was benched, but on Friday Monaco boss Leonardo Jardim said the player was fit again.

Quoted in L'Equipe, he said: 'If the match took place today, he would be in it. Everyone has trained well, everyone is in good condition. We'll decide tomorrow, but, if everything goes well, he'll be there.

'He's a Monaco player and we need everybody with us. There's the chance that he'll play or that he might stay on the bench - sitting games out sometimes is just part of football.

'The match is on Sunday so we'll wait until tomorrow.'

On the reports of a potential big-money move away from the Stade Louis II for his highly-rated France international, Jardim added: 'You know my opinion on the transfer window: it's used to buy players but also to destabilise clubs. Not just for us.

'Sometimes there are discussions that last three or four weeks without an agreement being reached.

'It doesn't really bother me, but I think FIFA or UEFA should limit the window to July. When it's four months of the year, that's too much. It's not good for football.'

Monaco, who were crowned Ligue 1 champions in May, have already sold star men Bernardo Silva, Benjamin Mendy and Tiemoue Bakayoko this summer.

Cameron Carter-Vickers has joined Sheffield United on a season-long loan from Tottenham. 

Carter-Vickers made his Tottenham debut in the third round of the League Cup against Gillingham last season.

After bringing in Carter-Vickers, Blades manager Chris Wilder said: 'Cameron is young, athletic and highly-rated by Tottenham and we're delighted we've been trusted to continue his development.

'He is a central defender with a good attitude and adds competition for places in that area. I like the way Tottenham play and it's clear that Cameron has the ability to be a very good player.'

TIMOTHY ABRAHAM: Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp insists the club have done everything in their power to bring in new players in this transfer window.

Attacking midfielder Mohamed Salah, defender Andrew Robertson and young striker Dominic Solanke have all joined the club

But they have so far failed with their pursuit of another central midfielder and a centre-back with Southampton's Virgil van Dijk and RB Leipzig's Naby Keita both remaining with their clubs.

Stoke manager Mark Hughes is encouraged by how quickly Jese has settled in - both on and off the pitch.

The forward joined the club on loan from Paris Saint-Germain last week and enjoyed a dream debut as he scored the only goal in Stoke's 1-0 home win against Arsenal.

'It's something we hoped would happen but he'd only been in the building two or three days and he was up against strong opposition,' said Hughes at his pre-match press conference.

'That's really encouraging about the rest of the season. He's integrated really quickly.

'The guys appreciate his ability and talent and as a guy he's very sociable. The guys have taken to him and it's the perfect start.

'It's true to say that in terms of our group we're very open to new and talented players coming into the group. They're never seen as a risk or a threat.

'The dressing room understands what we want to achieve and if good talents become available we will bring them to the club. Players make it clear this is a good place to ply your trade.'

ROBERT COTTINGHAM: Zlatan Ibrahimovic has promised Manchester United fans he is in best shape of his life in a dramatic video released after he rejoined the club.

The striker posted a video to his official Twitter account with a montage documenting his recovery from the cruciate knee ligament injury he suffered in April.

Speaking over a black and white montage, Ibrahimovic says: 'Challenges... they are nothing new. I have faced them, I have conquered them all my life.

The cold war between the Barcelona board and the club's players has taken President Josep Bartomeu to the brink. 

Will it end in his resignation or is there a way out of the mess?

SAM CUNNINGHAM: They could become one of the Premier League’s most fearsome strike forces. Or Jose Mourinho could have just created an almighty clash between two heavyweight forwards.

The re-signing of Zlatan Ibrahimovic on a one-year deal has the potential to put Romelu Lukaku’s nose out of joint.

Come October when the Swede is due back from the knee injury that ended his first season at United (although not before he scored 28 times) Mourinho will see if it is a partnership he can forge together, or one that causes needless tension.

CRAIG HOPE: Isaac Hayden says Newcastle’s players must take the blame for their woeful start to the season - but he has warned they may be too young for the Premier League.

Rafa Benitez’s team were dumped out of the League Cup by Championship side Nottingham Forest on Wednesday night, exiting at the second-round stage for the first time in 27 years.

They also lost their opening two top-flight matches without scoring a goal and face West Ham - another team on zero points - at St James’ Park on Saturday.

SIMON JONES: Robert Snodgrass will have a medical at Aston Villa this afternoon ahead of a season-long loan from West Ham.

Snodgrass only signed for West Ham in January for £7.5m, but was told he was surplus to requirements by Slaven Bilic earlier this summer.

Villa have beaten off interest from Sunderland and Birmingham to sign the 29-year-old Scotland international and will have an option to buy him at the end of the season.

His arrival will trigger the departure of Villa striker Ross McCormack to Sunderland on loan.

SIMON JONES: Tottenham are ready to shelve their pursuit of Manchester City teenager Jadon Sancho.

The 17-year-old has been looking to leave the Etihad with a number of Premier League sides plus Borussia Dortmund and Red Bull Leipzig keen to take him.

Sancho, who joined City from Watford in 2015, was surprisingly left out of City's pre-season tour of the United States, while highly rated youngsters Phil Foden and Brahim Diaz were both included.

He was named Golden Player at the European Under-17 Championship this summer and though free to sign for another club, he would not be able to play for them before the end of his scholarship deal without City's permission - and that has one year left to run.

City would be due compensation should he leave with any fee likely set by a tribunal.

Tottenham discussed taking him as part of the Kyle Walker transfer and remain admirers of the teenage midfielder but will not pursue a deal this month.

LAURIE WHITWELL: Huddersfield Town are considering a move for Leeds United goalkeeper Robert Green.

David Wagner might move for the former England international to provide competition for Jonas Lossl, who signed on a season-long loan this summer.

The Huddersfield manager has been assessing his options after losing Danny Ward back to Liverpool after his successful loan spell came to an end.

IAN HERBERT: Swansea City manager Paul Clement revealed a desire to create a British core at the heart of his team after the £14.6million acquisition of 26-year-old Sam Clucas, his first signing since losing Gylfi Sigurdsson to Everton.

Clucas has fought off adversity to secure his move from Championship side Hull City, having been rejected as a schoolboy by Leicester City and released by Lincoln City before seeking to build a career though the Glenn Hoddle Academy at Bisham Abbey.

Clement, who may send Clucas straight into the side to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday, said: ‘What I like about him is his story. His time didn’t come at 16 or 17 and a lot of players never come back from that. But if you’ve got the hunger and desire you can still make it.’

SAM CUNNINGHAM: Slaven Bilic insists he has little sympathy for Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez over his complaints about a lack of transfer activity — because they have spent more money than West Ham.

The two managers meet at St James' Park on Saturday, unexpectedly having both lost their opening two Premier League games.

But while Bilic has gone quietly about his business in the transfer window, Benitez has constantly moaned that he is not getting the players he wants from owner Mike Ashley.

PETE JENSON: Borussia Dortmund have insisted no decision has yet been made to transfer Ousmane Dembele to Barcelona, denying reports of a £138million agreement being struck between both sides.

'We have set Barcelona a deadline, and either something will happen or it won't,' a spokesman for Dortmund said.

German daily Bild had reported on Thursday that Barcelona had agreed a fee for the player in the region of £138m depending on performance bonuses, ending a saga that led to the talented 20-year-old winger being suspended by the Bundesliga club.
