Exclusive: Man Utd sweating over Ugarte

We are also told that Man Utd are facing a race against time in their attempts to sign Manuel Ugarte before the deadline, with the deal not as close as is being claimed.

However, Man Utd are moving towards finally freeing up the necessary funds for his signing.

Saudi giants Al-Ahli have made an official bid for Victor Osimhen.

However, the player's agent appears to have ruled out a move away from Europe.

Liverpool's double whammy

Liverpool are set to sign Giorgi Mamardashvili as the deal is all but done.

Additionally, they have now opened talks over the potential signing of Federico Chiesa.
