Karim Benzema - Spotlight On

Harry Redknapp has urged Manchester United to challenge Arsenal for Real Madrid's Karim Benzema.

The France international has been linked with a move to the Emirates in recent weeks and is believed to be a key summer target for Arsene Wenger.

However, former Tottenham boss Redknapp thinks United can muscle in on the deal, using De Gea as leverage.

He told Kicca: "I could see a deal there for somebody, be it Benzema or Ramos? But the good thing for United is that they hold the aces."

Mathieu Flamini has been told he can leave Arsenal this summer after slipping down the pecking order at the Emirates.

According to Goal.com, the defensive midfielder can leave the club despite having a year left to run on his contract.

The report adds that he has requested Arsenal pay him a portion of what he stands to earn in his final year to cover any loss of wages, should he leave.

Arturo Vidal has told young talent Kingsley Coman to reject a move to Arsenal in favour of Bayern Munich.

He told German newspaper Bild: "Coman isn’t just young and quick. He’s also a great player in terms of his quality.

“He has tremendous potential for improvement, and if he were to follow me here it’d be a big help for Bayern.”
