Today’s rumours are riding the District line

ntoine Semenyo’s farewell goal for Bournemouth, before his move to Manchester City, sets off a chain reaction over who succeeds him. Ethan Nwaneri, who has struggled for game time at Arsenal, is wanted by a few suitors.

Bournemouth are very interested in a loan move for someone who was the next big thing not too long ago. And still can be, though the word is he still wishes to stay a Gunner and play his part in a title-winning team.

Those gaping gaps in the Manchester City defence may soon be filled by Marc Guéhi, who is free to sign a pre-contract agreement as his Crystal Palace deal ends this summer. Palace would like to cash out what they can to make sure they can keep Oliver Glasner in Croydon; he’s linked with the vacancy at Old Trafford. Liverpool are also interested, as they too have great gaping gaps in their defence. That said, on Wednesday night, Glasner said he expected Guéhi to stay until the end of the season. Though a bid of £40m may change minds in the boardroom.
