The post, using a graphic from Transfermarkt, read "pick his next club" with the options given as Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Manchester United and PSG.

Having slipped down the pecking order on Merseyside, a Belgium international goalkeeper opted to head home after nine years in English football.

Former Sporting Lisbon manager Sinisa Mihajlovic says the club hasn't paid him the full €3 million compensation for unfair dismissal after he was removed in June 2018.

A statement from Mihajlovic said: “Sporting Lisbon as of today have not paid me the money that is owed. Since the start of the year, since the club first recognised this debt, they have done nothing but try to delay payment.

“This behaviour is unacceptable and if forced I will go back to UEFA to receive the full sum. I’ll go all the way, even if it means excluding Sporting from UEFA competitions.”

Atletico Madrid want to sign Ghanaian defender Mohammed Salisu from Real Valladolid, report Marca.

Highly-rated Manchester United midfielder Omari Forson is set to ignore interest from Arsenal to sign a new deal at Old Trafford, according to the Daily Mail.

Any offers for Dean Henderson in the next transfer window will be knocked back by Manchester United, reports ESPN.

The Red Devils see the England hopeful as their long-term No.1 and will instead look to find another loan move for the 23-year-old - after two stints at Sheffield United - if he looks for a way out of Old Trafford once more.

Willian “could do well” at Barcelona if he opts to head for Camp Nou as a free agent says Rivaldo, but a reunion with former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho at Tottenham is another “good option”.

Rivaldo told Betfair: "Willian has been linked in the past with Barcelona and I think he could do well there, because of his personality and ability to make the difference at important moments."

Liverpool have been warned off a move for RB Leipzig star Timo Werner, with Dietmar Hamann suggesting that “young Michael Ballack” Kai Havertz would be a better option than a striker with no obvious role at Anfield.
