Pochettino, Dzeko and Mitrovic make the headlines on Monday.

What the papers say

Mauricio Pochettino will be offered more than £300million to spend on players over the summer should he join AC Milan. The Serie A giants want the Spurs man to replace Gennaro Gattuso in the San Siro hot seat, reports the Daily Mirror.

Chelsea, currently subject of a transfer ban, are looking to sign Athletico Paranaense's Brazilian midfielder Bruno Guimaraes if they get the embargo lifted, according to the Daily Mail.

Edin Dzeko could return to the Premier League as the Daily Express reports Manuel Pellegrini is interested in bringing in the Bosnian from Roma. Dzeko, 33, scored 50 times in 130 appearances for Manchester City, then managed by Pellegrini.

Manchester United are running the rule over PSG and Belgium right-back Thomas Meunier, the Sun claims.

Leicester are among five Premier League clubs who are keen on signing Aleksandar Mitrovic from relegated Fulham, the Leicester Mercury says. Everton, Southampton, Tottenham and West Ham are also keen on the 24-year-old, the paper adds.
