Friday: Done Deals, Eriksen To Chelsea, Suarez To Atletico, Kante To Inter, Camavinga To Madrid
Chelsea prefer to sell star over N'Golo Kante after receiving Inter Milan swap deal offer
Chelsea would reportedly prefer to sell Jorginho over N'Golo Kante amid strong interest in the Frenchman from Inter Milan. Former Blues boss Antonio Conte wants a reunion with his former player at the San Siro as he bids to knock Juventus off their perch.
Kante wore the captain's armband in Chelsea's 1-1 draw with Brighton in pre season and remains an integral part of Frank Lampard's plans.
According to The Guardian, Inter have proposed the idea of Eriksen moving to Stamford Bridge in return for Kante.
The report adds that Chelsea would be far more willing to sell Jorginho though.
The Italian was a former favourite under Maurizio Sarri and looked set to join him at Juventus earlier in the year.

Solskjaer adamant Man Utd will sign a winger even if it's not Sancho
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ready to bring in other targets if Manchester United fail to secure Jadon Sancho deal.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has told Manchester United a top class right winger is a must if he is to mount a genuine challenge for the Premier League title.
While Jadon Sancho remains his priority and United have been encouraged by progress in negotiations this week, the Norwegian is prepared to bring in an alternative target, rather than go into another season without addressing his problem position.
Mason Greenwood has had an outstanding impact since bursting onto the scene last term. But that hasn’t dissuaded Solskjaer from trying to lure Sancho to Old Trafford, where the iconic No7 shirt is waiting for the winger.
Kingsley Coman was among the alternatives drawn up by United’s transfer committee - but Bayern Munich were reluctant to let the Frenchman go.

Luis Suárez prefers move to Atlético Madrid over Juventus
Luis Suárez to Juventus appeared to be a certainly just a couple of days ago as the Barcelona striker looked primed to join the Italian giants, but new reports over the last few hours indicate that the Uruguayan might not be leaving Spain after all.
According to reports, Suárez has put his contract talks with Juve on hold after learning about an interest from Diego Simeone and Atlético Madrid, who are looking for Luisito to replace Álvaro Morata and Diego Costa, who are rumored to be leaving the Colchoneros in the next couple of weeks.
Suárez likes the idea of staying in Spain, where his family has adapted very well, and playing for Simeone also attracts him to Atletico. But if he doesn’t move to Atlético or Juventus, Suárez would be welcomed to stay at Barcelona.

Real Madrid considering £55m move to sign Rennes star Eduardo Camavinga
Real Madrid are reportedly plotting a move for Rennes midfielder Eduardo Camavinga this summer with the prime motivation of ensuring no other top European club buys him.
Camavinga has broken into the first team with the Ligue 1 club and has earned plaudits for his performances at the tender age of just 17.
French champions PSG, who lost their season opener on Thursday, are also eyeing a deal but Madrid could submit a £55m (€60m) bid for Camavinga, with the intention of loaning him back to Rennes for a season or two, according to Spanish outlet Diario Sport.
