The starting line-ups are in from Goodison Park where Everton host Manchester City in Premier League action.The home side do suffer a number of absentees and remain cautious over the easing of Dwight McNeil back into action.
The visitors will play at this venue for the 100th and final time and although Phil Foden and Manuel Akanji are back in training, neither is fit enough to start as Pep Guardiola makes four changes from the win over Crystal Palace.

Liverpool have "firm intention" to make NEW offer to contract rebel

Liverpool have "firm intention" to make NEW offer to contract rebel Diaz seeking pay rise The 28-year-old has given his club a contract predicament to solve. His terms expire in summer 2027 and if a new agreement isn't reached then his future is thought to be at risk. Liverpool would not fancy losing the winger for nothing - having paid £37.5m for him to Porto back in 2022. But a new deal on the terms Diaz requires appears to be far off. Advertisement The Colombian is reported to earn £55k per week - and would like a pay rise to around £150k per week in order to sign a new deal. So far there have been no indications that Richard Hughes is prepared to go that high - which is why Barca and Al-Nassr believe they have a chance at tempting Liverpool to sell. © IMAGO Liverpool to offer new contract for Diaz But according to the latest report in Diaz's native country, a renewed contract offer IS now expected. 'Liverpool's board would have the firm intention of making an offer to Luis Diaz's entourage,' reads a report in Redmas. Currently on international duty with Los Cafeteros, Diaz is scheduled to return to Liverpool once the current series of matches has concluded and he has taken his summer vacation. Advertisement 'The only certainty with Luis Diaz is that he will return to England to join Liverpool's preseason preparations,' the report continues. 'Coach Arne Slot is expected to count on him for next season.' Diaz proved himself as a problem solver for Slot last term - scoring 13 Premier League goals as the Reds won the title. He competed with Cody Gakpo for his left-wing berth and even filled in up front when Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota were out of the picture.

Bayer Leverkusen make crucial transfer decision amid Jack Grealish interest

Bayer Leverkusen have rethought their stance on Manchester City's James McAtee as they hunt for a replacement for Liverpool-bound Florian Wirtz, as per a new report. Wirtz is nearing the completion of a sensational move to Anfield as negotiations progress to an advanced stage between Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen, who have received an improved £113 million offer for the 22-year-old after turning down an opening bid from Merseyside. Advertisement Liverpool are understood to have agreed personal terms with Wirtz that will see the Germany international sign a long-term contract with the Premier League champions, who won the league title in Arne Slot's debut campaign in England last term. Leverkusen are poised to cashing in on Wirtz and are actively searching for a suitable replacement for the attacking midfielder, with a long-standing interest in Manchester City star and England U-21 international James McAtee. McAtee's Manchester City future was put in further doubt as the 22-year-old has chosen to captain his National Team at the U-21 European Championship and turned down a chance to represent his boyhood club at the FIFA Club World Cup. Advertisement The Salford-born star struggled for regular game time last season and despite a much greater look into the first-team after March, there is little evidence to suggest McAtee will realise his true potential under Pep Guardiola. With 12 months remaining on his current deal at the Etihad Stadium, McAtee wants a permanent transfer to start fresh and progress his career and Manchester City will be looking for a market fee for another product of their academy. Bayer Leverkusen have held a long-standing interest in McAtee and it is understood that the German outfit have held direct talks with Manchester City over the attacking midfielder, who is very attracted by the prospect of moving to Germany for next season. However, Bild are reporting that Leverkusen have withdrawn their interest in McAtee and are focusing on alternative targets as they prepare for life without Florian Wirtz and look to spend the incoming transfer fee for their best player, as relayed by Get Football News Germany. Advertisement Manchester City's €20 million valuation has put off Leverkusen, who are exited the race to sign McAtee, who has also attracted interest from Eintracht Frankfurt and VfB Stuttgart. It is worth noting that City are likely to prefer to sell McAtee to a foreign club. Cole Palmer joined Chelsea for £40 million in 2023 and has turned himself into one of the best forwards in Europe after two outstanding seasons in west London. City have frequently sold academy and bit-part players to their direct Premier League rivals and it has come back to bite them. Jack Grealish has also recently been linked with a move to Bayer Leverkusen and incoming manager Erik ten Hag is believed to have conveyed his desire of signing the 29-year-old England international to replace Wirtz, with Manchester City set to demand £50 million for their record signing this summer.

Viktor Gyokeres could join Man United to live near Erling Haaland

Manchester United target Viktor Gyokeres is likely to move to the Red Devils so he can live near Erling Haaland, it has been claimed. That's the view of musician Tom Grennan, who says he knows the Swedish striker well from his time playing for Coventry City, the club he supports. Advertisement Gyokeres is right at the top of United manager Ruben Amorim's wishlist for the summer transfer window after bagging over 50 goals last season and 43 the year before under his tutelage for Sporting CP. For comparison United's current squad managed only 44 league goals between them last season, so it's little wonder the Portuguese boss is looking at a reunion with his prize striker from his time in Lisbon. The 27-year-old is said to be furious that Sporting CP reneged on the gentleman's agreement to let him leave the club for less than the €80m they are now demanding, and has even told them he will never play for them again as a result. With his future seemingly away from Portugal, United are a distinct possibility for his next destination, especially with Arsenal's priority striker signing now looking like RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko. Advertisement And according to Grennan, Gyokeres will be delighted with a move to Manchester as he can live next door to his best friend, Manchester City striker Haaland. The musician told the BBC podcast You About?, via the Daily Mirror: 'I know him well. I actually messaged him and he said that there's different conversations going on. 'Do you know who his best friend is? Haaland. That is why I think he'll go to Manchester United because he'll be next door to Haaland.' Should he end up becoming a Red Devil, the Old Trafford faithful will be hoping he emulates the towering Norwegian's performances in England where he has 121 goals in 142 matches for City. Advertisement Since missing out on Haaland things haven't quite worked out for United's reinforcements at centre-forward, with Rasmus Hojlund the highest-profile arrival in that position. After a dismal campaign saw him on the scoresheet in the Premier League just four times, he may be set for a summer move to Inter Milan as Amorim looks for reliable goals up front.
