The Times:

David Moyes started an extensive summer rebuilding operation yesterday by releasing Duncan Ferguson, Li Tie and Matteo Ferrari and securing a deal to sign Tim Howard, the Manchester United goalkeeper, on loan when the transfer window reopens.

Howard, restricted to just 45 minutes of action in the Barclays Premiership by United this campaign, will spend next season at Goodison Park, where he is expected to be first-choice goalkeeper.

The Mirror:

Tim Howard will join Everton today on a season-long loan, as boss David Moyes begins his summer clear-out.

If Howard is a success, then Everton will be offered the option to make the move permanent, with United looking for a fee of around £2million.
