Saturday's photos of the day

As has become the norm since Roman Abramovich's takeover at Stamford Bridge, "Chelski" are being linked with almost every half-decent player in Europe.

In the wake of Friday's stream of possible targets comes yet another in Paris St Germain's much-in-demand Ronaldinhio.

The Star reports that Chelsea are ready to sabotage Manchester United's bid for the Brazilian with a lucrative offer that eclipses the �60,000 a week that United have put forward.

The sensible Daily Mail poses the question: "Is it fantasy football or sheer madness?"

Meanwhile, The Sun suggests that Arsenal skipper Patrick Vieira may walk out on the club unless they can prove that they match his ambition.

The paper says that Vieira wants to see three major summer signings - or he will leave as a free agent next year.

Interest in Harry Kewell's complicated transfer from Leeds to Liverpool continues, with the Daily Mirror - under its headline of "The Final Insult" - revealing that Leeds had to shell out �28,000 on an insurance policy for Kewell to play for Liverpool.

Leeds boss Peter Reid describes the charge as "a bit close to the bone."

Away from football, Andy Flintoff's rise to the talisman of English cricket sees him come in for widespread praise ahead of England's showdown with South Africa.

The Times sees "Freddy" as a natural successor to Ian Botham, while the Daily Express says he is "fit to take on the world."
