Man Utd to trigger Inaki Williams £81m release clause – reports Manchester United aren’t planning to wait around to replace Romelu Lukaku, with sensational reports emerging of a move for Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams.

The latest reports suggest that the Belgian striker is set to sign for Inter, so Ed Woodward and co. will have to act fast if they’re to bring in a replacement before the transfer window deadline, 5pm on Thursday. Juventus’ Mario Mandzukic and Lyon’s Moussa Dembele had both been linked but are set to stay where they are. Williams is the latest name to emerge. Spanish TV station El Chiringuito has suggested that the forward, with a reputation as one of the fastest players in Europe, could be a due a move to the Premier League giants. | GOAAAL! | Inaki Williams has done it again!
