Transfer Talk: Liverpool still hope to sign Falcao, United eye Fredy Guarin, Roma want Jovetic

The Reds will wait until the final day of the transfer window to sign a top striker if they have to.

Brendan Rodgers says that Liverpool have money to spend on a top striker and are still hoping to bring Radamel Falcao to Anfield on a season-long loan from Monaco. The Colombian is still expected to join Real Madrid but that hasn't deterred Rodgers, who said: "The money is there - and we will look to improve at the top end of the field until the very end of the window." Edinson Cavani is named as the very tasty back-up option for Liverpool, with Samuel Eto'o as a last resort to join Daniel Sturridge and Rickie Lambert in the Reds' frontline. United turn their attention to Fredy Guarin The Daily Star reckon Arturo Vidal will stay exactly where he is and that Louis van Gaal will now turn his attention to Inter Milan midfielder Fredy Guarin. Given the fact that Tyler Blackett and Jesse Lingard start for United against Swansea in their Premier League opener, the former champions are in dire need of some reinforcements and the combative Colombian has long been linked with a move to England. Time for Ed Woodward to start earning that salary, we say. Could Manchester City sell Stevan Jovetic? Probably not, given the fact that the former Fiorentina striker has had an excellent pre-season and looks ready to spearhead City's bid to retain the title after an injury-hit first season at the Etihad. However, that doesn't stop the Daily Mirror linking Jovetic with a £20m move to Roma in one of the more outlandish rumours you'll read today. What else?
