Comings and goings at Chelsea lead a number of Thursday's papers.

What the papers say

Sadio Mane could prove to be the summer target of Real Madrid, with the Spanish side giving up hope of landing Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe, the Sun reports. Mane, who has scored 59 times in 118 appearances for Liverpool, is admired by Zinedine Zidane as a replacement for Karim Benzema.

Chelsea are looking to sell Victor Moses, with Inter Milan interested in bringing in the 29-year-old winger, the Sun says. However, the sticking point may prove to be the price, with the Serie A side reluctant to pay the £10.75m valuation of Frank Lampard's side.

Sticking at Stamford Bridge, and Jorginho is wanted by Juventus but the midfielder is happy to remain at the Premier League side, according to Metro.

But Chelsea could also made a move for central defender Xavier Mbuyamba who has impressed at Barcelona, reports the Daily Star. The 18-year-old has been compared with Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk.

Manuel Akanji is wanted by Arsenal as the Gunners look to shore up their defence, reports the Sun. Akanji, currently on the books of Dortmund, is estimated to be worth around £25m.
