United’s new striker target
Man Utd are reportedly showing an interest in Genk striker Tolu Arokodare.
The Nigerian, who stands at 6ft 6in tall, scored 21 goals in 40 Belgian Pro League matches last season.
He is seen as a cheaper option with Genk supposedly open to accepting a £20m fee.
Ruben Amorim wants a more physical presence up top.
Sulemana bid rejected
Southampton have turned down a £10m offer from Atalanta for Kamaldeen Sulemana.
The Ghanaian winger is keen on the move to the Serie A club, who are managed by recently axed Saints boss Ivan Juric.
Ajax, Genoa and Torino are all in the race to sign him.
But Atalanta are the first to make an offer and personal terms will not be a problem.
EXCLUSIVE: Stars axed from pre-season
Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Antony and Jadon Sancho will be axed from United’s pre-season tour of the US.
The quartet are all up for sale and will not be flying to the States with the rest of the squad if they have not found a new club by then.
Their first game of the tour is against West Ham on July 27.
United want to force their exits to raise funds for their own spending.
Weah battle
Tottenham, Everton and RB Leipzig are ready to battle it out for Timothy Weah.
The Juventus and US national team star can play at right-back or right-wing.
He is the son of former Ballon d’Or winner and ex-president of Liberia George Weah.
But a Premier League switch for Weah does not seem imminent after he was one of the Juventus stars bizarrely visiting Donald Trump in the Oval Office earlier this week ahead of their Club World Cup opener.
He was asked about that instead of transfers, with him saying: “It was all a surprise to me, honestly, they told us that we have to go and I had no choice but to go.
“When he [Trump] started talking about the politics with Iran and everything, it kind of like, I just want to play football man.”
BREAKING: Liverpool agree Kerkez deal
Liverpool have struck an agreement with Bournemouth for left-back Milos Kerkez, according to journalist David Ornstein.
The champions will pay £40m for the 21-year-old, who is set to put pen to paper on a five-year contract.
Kerkez will undergo a medical next week and the paperwork is currently being sorted between the two clubs.
The Hungarian has spent two seasons at Bournemouth after his £15.5m switch from AZ Alkmaar.
He scored six goals and got two assists last term.
Kerkez’s arrival could spell the end for Andy Robertson amid interest from Atletico Madrid.
Bournemouth have already completed a deal for his replacement in Adrian Truffert from French side Rennes.
Quansah deal close
Jarell Quansah’s switch from Liverpool to Bayer Leverkusen could be completed by next week.
The clubs have been in talks over a separate deal for the centre-back – not tied to Florian Wirtz’s £116.5m move.
Quansah is open to leaving Anfield and the fee will supposedly be £30m plus £5m in add-ons.
