    Spurs 'beat' Liverpool to Willian
  9. Reports in Russia this morning suggest Willian is bound for Spurs, not Liverpool.
    Russian journalist Nobel Arustamyan, deputy editor in chief of Radio Sport in Russia, is making the claims.
    Tottenham have reportedly reached agreement with Anzhi for Willian and the probability of a transfer is “now very high,” according to Arustamyan.
    Russian website Sports.ru also confirm the suggestion, adding that a medical at Spurs is imminent with personal terms also set to be discussed.

  10. Reds after Turan
  11. Liverpool are turning their attentions to Atletico Madrid winger Arda Turan, but could face competition from Arsenal according to reports.
    Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been under fire to spend money on players after a dismal start to the new Premier League season, while Liverpool have also set their eyes on Turkey international Turan, it is believed.
    There is good news for both Premier League clubs as Turan's agent Ahmet Bulut has confirmed the player is very interested in the English game, and that talks have taken place.
    Bulut was quoted by Eurosport as saying: "Atletico Madrid do not want to sell Arda. However, if his €24m minimum release clause is activated then they will have to listen to offers.
    "A transfer to the Premier League is likely. There are a few clubs interested. Liverpool is one and Arsenal another. There have been no concrete offers but two clubs have spoken about wages."

  12. Reds renew Illori interest
  13. Liverpool have renewed interest in Tiago Ilori as the Sporting Lisbon defender refuses to sign a new contract, says The Mirror.
    The Reds had a bid of £3million rejected for the Portuguese international earlier this summer, but are ready to step up their efforts again.
    Now Ilori's refusal to sign a new deal with the Portuguese club has given Rodgers' fresh hope that a compromise deal can be sorted out.
