Cesc Fàbregas and Yaya Touré, who have been marginalised by their new coaches at Chelsea and Manchester City, have reacted differently to their changing circumstances. If today’s rags are to be believed, Fàbregas wants to complete a dream move from Chelsea to Real Madrid after being left out of Monday night’s win over West Ham. Across Manchester, José Mourinho’s wants to pay £30m for Santos’s Gabriel Barbosa, who has starred in the Olympics. Arsenal are still favourites to sign Valencia defender Shkodran Mustafi, provided they pay £30m. Some final rumours: Watford will sign Juventus midfielder Roberto Pererya, Valencia will sign the Watford midfielder Mario Suárez, Sunderland’s Liam Bridcutt is off to Leeds and someone at the Olympics has green wee.
