How Liverpool beat Newcastle to Munoz...
Latest from Your Site News' Keith Downie:
Newcastle thought they had a deal for Victor Munoz before Liverpool swooped in to sign the Osasuna winger.
Newcastle had a 33.3m fee - an initial 29m plus 4.3m in add-ons - accepted by the LaLiga club.
The 22-year-old had agreed personal terms and told Newcastle that he wanted to come, while agent fees were also agreed.
Newcastle had the wheels in motion for a medical over in the US and felt they had a deal in place.
But they were instructed by the player's representatives to wait over the last 24 hours.
Liverpool had always been at the table for the Spain international, so they did not come in at the last minute, but Newcastle had been told the player wanted to sign for them.
Newcastle are now licking their wounds inflicted by Liverpool again after what happened with Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike last summer, and are trying to get to the bottom of what happened in the last 24 hours.
Sutton: Celtic need to spend 50m!
Your Site' Chris Sutton is expecting a busy summer for Martin O'Neill and Celtic:
"Martin worked wonders last season.
"I didn't see Celtic winning the title from the position which he was put in on a couple of occasions.
"The run towards the end of the season was extraordinary.
"You can't get away from the fact there needs to be a lot of change at Celtic in terms of recruitment.
"So Martin will be looking to, I'm sure, bring players in.
"It'll be interesting to see who goes out from Celtic.
"It looks Reo Hatate will go, possibly Daizen Maeda and Arne Engels but they're big players for the team.
"So who is Celtic going to replace those type of players with?
"I think that Celtic are possibly going to have to spend up to or more than 50m really because the squad does need a rebuild."
