Here’s your daily round-up of the latest transfer gossip from World Soccer.
INTER WANT JIMENEZ
Internazionale are having to prepare for life with Lautaro Martinez, a long-term target of Barcelona who is also catching the eye of Manchester City.
As a result, they’ve turned their attention to Wolves striker Raul Jimenez, according to Italian outlet Calciomaercato. The Italian side believe they can wrap up a deal next summer, as long as they can hold off competition from Juventus.

UMTITI TO TOFFEES
Diario Sport claim that Everton are eyeing a move for Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti.
Carlo Ancelotti has already signed James Rodriguez from Real Madrid, and been linked with a move for Spain midfielder Isco, so he is no stranger to signing players from the two Spanish giants.
