Faith, Christian: The £32.5 million transfer of cash from Liverpool to Aston Villa will be completed soon. Only an administrative delay is keeping Benteke from donning a liver bird on his chest, Sky Sports report.

Stonewall signing: It can only be a matter of time now before Chelsea get their man, 21-year-old Everton defender John Stones, because Jose Mourinho is openly proclaiming his affection for the Barnsley boy and taking sarcastic pot-shots at Roberto Martinez.

Glory Esteban: Cambiasso is increasingly unlikely to line out for Leicester City at the start of the season. Claudio Ranieri says the Foxes are looking for his replacement and will pave the way for the Argentine to go to the club that made Javier Mascherano and Carlos Tevez so happy, West Ham.

Nobody knows it, but… Manchester United will sign a secret striker. So say all today’s newspapers despite Louis van Gaal insisting his comments yesterday had been misconstrued – he says he actually doesn’t need a striker all that bad.

The Mirror have gone feet first into a ‘reveal’ that it’s Fernando Llorente, Das Bild have picked up yesterday’s line about Thomas Muller and Edison Cavani is still lurking around here somewhere too.

Serg’ of interest: The b’auld Mundo Deportivo say that Arsene Wenger has enjoyed some cosy chats with Barcelona’s next-big-thing Sergi Samper. The Spanish outlet reckon the midfielder’s feet have gotten too big for his B team boots and his €12 million release clause would take him to London.

Ram’ raid foiled? A surprise Manchester United signing would still fit the bill for Sergio Ramos. However, it looks as though he and his Real Madrid overlords will kiss and make up any day now because AS report that Fiorentino Perez is jetting out to Guangzhou for talks with the fiery defender.
