Liverpool agree Szoboszlai

Liverpool will sign Dominik Szoboszlai from RB Leipzig for £60 million, the Mirror believes.
The story explains: “Negotiations picked up pace on Friday, a matter of hours before the player's £60m release clause with the Bundesliga side elapsed. As the German cup winners sealed a season-long loan deal for Reds youngster Fabio Carvalho, Liverpool began negotiations with RBL chiefs over putting a deal in place for Szooszlai.
“Leipzig had been in no rush to sell the 22-year-old, having already parted ways with Christopher Nkunku - who has joined Chelsea - and with Josko Gvardiol wanted by Manchester City for a big-money move this month. But Szoboszlai made clear he wanted the opportunity to move to Anfield and work with Jurgen Klopp.”

Inter wait for United Onana bid

Inter Milan are ready for Manchester United to bid for Andre Onana.
The Daily Mail claims that Inter’s chief executive is waiting for contact.
“Inter Milan's CEO Beppe Marotta has confirmed that Manchester United are interested in signing No 1 Andre Onana from the Serie A side,” the paper writes.
“Erik ten Hag has identified signing a goalkeeper as a priority for the Red Devils after the club secured their first transfer of the window, Mason Mount, on Thursday evening.
“David de Gea - who has been at the Carabao Cup winners for the past 12 years - is out of contract as of midnight on Friday evening, and the club may face re-signing him to find a solution to their burgeoning goalkeeping crisis.
“Speaking at the Gran Gala, held in the coastal Italian town of Rimini, Marotta shared details of Man United's 'particular interest' in the player.
“'Manchester United expressed a particular interest, but that needs to blossom into making a proposal over the next few days,' the chief executive said when asked about Onana's future at Inter.”

Pulisic set for Chelsea exit

The Daily Express reports that Christian Pulisic will leave Chelsea to link up with AC Milan, for a fee of around £20 million.
The paper reports: “Christian Pulisic looks set to bring his Premier League journey to an end with Chelsea. The English club has agreed a deal with AC Milan to see the American superstar join the Italian giants. Pulisic played just 24 times for the Blues in the EPL last season, and looks to be far from a starter with Chelsea having a wealth of options in his position.
“Pulisic is set to take a paycut to join the team, where he'll be reunited with former Chelsea teammates Olivier Giroud, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Fikayo Tomori.
“Milan has agreed personal terms with Pulisic, with the two teams working on the transfer fee - reported to be around $25 million.”

Wrexham may fail to land Nick Powell

Nick Powell’s career has suffered since he failed to take advantage of his time at Manchester United, and The Sun reports that he was linked with another high-profile outfit: Wrexham.
The paper claims: “WREXHAM have suffered a blow in the chase to sign former Manchester United ace Nick Powell.
“The 29-year-old made headlines when Sir Alex Ferguson signed the midfielder from Crewe Alexandra for £6million 11 years ago.
“However, the Manchester Evening News has now revealed that he is back training with old club Crewe Alexandra, who are League Two rivals of the Welsh team.”
