United chasing Reijnders

The Mirror reports that Erik Ten Hag is looking at another Dutchman, as he looks to strengthen his Manchester United squad.
The paper claims: "Manchester United are monitoring Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders after Erik ten Hag faced fresh criticism for the volume of former Eredivisie players he has signed.
"Ten Hag has already raided the Dutch top-flight for the signing of Antony and Lisandro Martinez from Ajax, while he also signed full-back Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord last summer. Former Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana has subsequently signed from Inter, while Mason Mount even had a loan stint at Vitesse.
"Reijnders starred for AZ Alkmaar across five seasons in the Netherlands before joining Milan this summer and being capped at international level. The midfielder has impressed in 10 appearances for the Rossoneri and is already being linked with a move to Old Trafford."

Inter Miami set to complete Suarez deal

Spanish newspaper Marca reports that David Beckham's Inter Miami will soon be able to do a deal for Gremio forward Luis Suarez.
"Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba will soon have some company from the past," the paper explains.
"Those prominent members of one of the best Barcelona teams in history, the one that won the treble under Luis Enrique, will welcome Luis Suarez to complete the dream that David Beckham has been working on since he first arrived at Inter Miami.
"The fact that Suarez is not already in the United States is due to the difficulties that Gremio have caused him with regards to breaking his contract.
"Once he does manage to end that deal in Brazil, and sources close to the player speak of December for that to happen, one of the most curious joint moves in recent football history will have been completed."

Lingard faces Al-Ettifaq wait

Saudi Pro League will make Jesse Lingard wait for a contract to join his proposed new side, as there is a limit to how many non-Saudi players clubs can have.
The Sun explains, “Jesse Lingard could face another two months of unemployment before landing a new job.
“The ex-Manchester United ace, 30, has been a free agent since being released by Nottingham Forest in the summer.
“Lingard had been training with old club West Ham but decided to join up with Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq - who are managed by Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard.
“Lingard still has not penned a contract with the Middle East team as they have a limit on foreign players in the Saudi League.”

Moyes yet to start contract talks

David Moyes is not yet in talks to extend his contract at West Ham, reports the Mail.
“David Moyes insists he is in no rush to open contract talks at West Ham,” the paper says.
“The Hammers boss, 60, will be out of contract at the end of the season with no plans to discuss a new deal in the pipeline.
“The West Ham hierarchy will want Moyes to stay, however, after he ended their 43-year trophy drought with success in the Europa Conference League in June, as well as overseeing a fine start to this season.
“Moyes faced calls to be axed at times last season with West Ham struggling in the Premier League.
“The former Everton boss could have left on a high in the summer following that memorable night against Fiorentina in Prague, but insists he never considered walking away.”
