Football rumours: Barcelona want Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang reunion

What the papers say

Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang’s stint at Chelsea could already be coming to an end. The Telegraph says Barcelona are seeking urgent legal clarity about re-signing the striker, who they offloaded to the Blues in September on a two-year contract. But the Spanish side want to bring the 33-year-old, who has scored just three goals for Chelsea, back to Spain on a free transfer.

A breakout LaLiga season has attracted plenty of attention for Ivan Fresneda. The Telegraph reports Arsenal have joined the race for the Real Valladolid right-back, but face competition from Newcastle and Juventus for the 18-year-old.

The Mirror says relegation-battling Everton are considering picking up Atalanta forward Duvan Zapata, 31, as part of a loan-to-buy agreement in a deal worth around £15million.
