Raheem Sterling's agent has reaffirmed the 25-year-old's commitment to Manchester City.

What the papers say

Tottenham Hotspur and Everton have shown interest in 30-year-old Manchester United and England defender Chris Smalling, who is currently on loan at Roma, according to Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

Arsenal midfielder Matteo Guendouzi could be on the chopping block after the 20-year-old was reportedly dumped for Sunday's clash with Newcastle due to problems with his 'attitude' in training. Guendouzi could attract substantial interest if Arsenal decide to put him on the market, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Daily Express has reported that 'tension' between Boubakary Soumare and Lille has provided a major boost to potential transfer suitors Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea. The 20-year-old  midfielder was left out of Sunday's crucial match against Marseille despite a breakout Ligue 1 season.
