LIVE Transfer Talk: PSG ready £90m bid for Man United keeper David De Gea

The transfer window for Europe's biggest clubs is closed, but you can click here to review all the deals. Transfer Talk will continue to scour the world's media and set correspondents loose to see what's on the agenda for the summer.

TOP STORY: PSG to table mega de Gea Deal

Paris Saint-Germain look set to take advantage of David De Gea's contract uncertainty at Manchester United by offering him a deal worth £90m, according to the Daily Star.

De Gea has just over a year remaining on his Old Trafford contract, which is worth £200,000 a week, but PSG are offering to more than double the Spain international's wages to £450,000 a week despite his recent struggle for form.

The French champions are keen to sign a long-term replacement for Gianluigi Buffon, whose future at Parc des Princes looks uncertain.

De Gea's contract situation could force United to cash in this summer. With a fee of around £50m enough to tempt them to sell, PSG could now lure him to the French capital.

The news comes after sources told ESPN FC that United are seriously considering triggering Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak's €120 million buy-out clause, throwing De Gea's future into further doubt.

In March, ESPN FC reported that Varane, who has been linked with Manchester United, was considering whether to look for a new challenge -- but Marca claimed he had "parked" the idea of leaving.

However, sources told ESPN FC he had not made a decision about his future ahead of a meeting with Bernabeu chiefs.

09.40 BST: Corriere dello Sport suggests Inter Milan are ready to sign striker Moise Kean from Juventus.

Kean is an Inter supporter and his contract runs out at the end of next season, so director Beppe Marotta is looking to secure another major coup on a free transfer.

The forward's agent, Mino Raiola, has a positive relationship with Inter and represents their former players Mario Balotelli and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

08.52 BST: Manchester United's former Champions League winning captain Rio Ferdinand is in the frame to become the club's new sporting director, according to the Daily Mail.

PAPER TALK (by James Capps): Bernabeu switch, Premier League ditch for Ndombele?

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane will attempt to persuade Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele to ditch a move to the Premier League and sign for him instead.

AS says the 22-year-old favours a move to either Tottenham or Manchester City, but Zidane believes he can convince him that going to the Bernabeu would be best for his career.

Following initial talks, Lyon have set an asking price of €100m but Madrid are confident that they can bring that down to something between €70-80m.

Lyon's Ligue 1 rivals PSG are also in the race for the player, with Massimiliano Allegri and Juventus monitoring Ndombele's situation.

Chelsea after Atal if transfer ban is quashed

The Telegraph reports that Chelsea are in the race to sign highly-rated Nice full-back Youcef Atal but face competition from Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich.

Atal became the first Algerian in 33 years to score a Ligue 1 hat trick in the 3-0 victory over Guingamp at the weekend, and that display prompted Nice manager Patrick Vieira to declare that the 22-year-old is not for sale.

But that resolve is set to be tested by Europe's elite, with the Algeria international believed to be keen to play in the Champions League next season.

According to the report, at least €40m will be required to secure the right-back, who is set to appear for his country at this summer's African Nations Cup.

Tap-ins

- Arsenal boss Unai Emery's transfer plans are in limbo, with the club trying to appoint a director of football and waiting to see if they will be playing Champions League football next season.

There are also doubts among Arsenal players about Emery's tactical credentials, according to the Telegraph.

- The Daily Mail says Manchester United and Arsenal are set to go head-to-head for young Reading goalkeeper Coniah Boyce-Clarke.

The 16-year-old got rave reviews when he faced United's youth team earlier in the season, and won the Golden Glove award at last year's Val De Marne tournament in France.

- Manchester City outcast Danilo is willing to take a pay cut in order to complete a move to Inter Milan this summer, Calciomercato says.

It claims talks between the two parties are well under way, but the Brazilian will need to take a cut to his £75,000-a-week Man City salary if he is to seal a deal with the Nerazzurri.
