The Rumour Mill

Wilfried Zaha's move to Manchester United has collapsed, after Crystal Palace rejected a £10m bid. The Eagles wanted £15m for the winger, according to the Sunday Mirror. However, the Mail on Sunday says that the deal is well and truly on, with Zaha moving to United for £12m. The Sunday Express has added to the speculation that Frank Lampard will move to LA Galaxy in the summer. However, the Mail on Sunday reports that the Chelsea midfielder is also considering a move to AC Milan, as a move to the States would put his England career at risk. After Victor Valdes refused to extend his Barcelona contract, there has been much speculation over his replacement. While the Mail on Sunday reports that Pepe Reina is their main target, the Metro believes that on-loan Chelsea 'keeper Thibault Courtois is on his way to the Catalan side. Mapou Yanga-Mbwia is on his way to Newcastle after the Magpies had a £6m bid for the Frenchman accepted, reports the Sun on Sunday. The Mail on Sunday reports that Mario Balotelli will only move to AC Milan if Manchester City cut their £31m asking price. This comes despite reports in yesterday's Sun that a £24m deal has been agreed. Swansea will have to pay £4.5m for Kenwyne Jones, according to the Sunday Star. The former Sunderland star cost Stoke £8m. Mohammed Diame could still be on his way to Arsenal, according to the Metro, after West Ham failed to renegotiate the striker's current deal.
