Liverpool have no intention of allowing Dutch right-back Jeremie Frimpong, 25, to leave Anfield in January, despite speculation linking him with a move to the Saudi Pro League.

Newcastle United have ruled out a move for Al-Ahli's English striker Ivan Toney, 30, despite his previous spell with the Magpies between 2015 and 2018 and his connection with current Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle, who previously coached him at the Saudi club.
