Tuchel wants Dembele in Neymar deal as Monaco join Icardi race
We round up the front and back pages across Europe, as Tuesday sees the transfer rumour mill crank into gear once again.
What does the future hold for Neymar?
That remains unclear. Though it is certain that the world's most expensive player wants to leave Paris just two years on from his € 222million arrival in the French capital.
A return to former club Barcelona and a blockbuster move to Real Madrid are both options as this transfer saga drags on.
Tuchel wants Dembele in Neymar deal
According to le10sport, Paris Saint-Germain head coach Thomas Tuchel wants Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele included in any deal for wantaway star Neymar.
Neymar has been linked with a return to LaLiga champions Barcelona, as well as Real Madrid before the European transfer window shuts.
Having already splashed the cash on Antoine Griezmann and Frenkie de Jong, Barca are unable to meet PSG's demands in cash, so players and a sum of money has been mooted.
Philippe Coutinho is one played reportedly in the mix to move to PSG, though Tuchel wants to reunite with former Borussia Dortmund star Dembele.
