Transfer wrap: Reds agree Enrique fee, QPR strengthen defence

Liverpool have agreed to sign Newcastle left-back Jose Enrique for a reported fee of six million pounds.

The Reds pounced on the opportunity to seal the Spaniard's services after the 25-year-old announced he wanted to cut short his contract at St James' Park by a year.
Enrique's impending exit follows the departure of Andy Carroll, who joined Liverpool last season, and Kevin Nolan's sale to West Ham, leaving Newcastle manager Alan Pardew with several gaps to fill in his squad.
A Liverpool statement confirmed Enrique's arrival at Merseyside was imminent.
"The club have now been given permission to discuss personal terms with the player, who will travel to Liverpool to undergo a medical."
Elsewhere in the Premier League, Queens Park Rangers have signed Brazilian defender Bruno Perone on a one-year deal after a month-long trial period with the London club.
Bolton have confirmed they are pursuing out-of-favour Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips, while Turkish striker Tuncay Sanli will arrive at the Reebok for a loan spell from Bundesliga side Wolfsburg.
The 29-year-old Tuncay, who has Premier League experience with Middlesbrough and Stoke City, announced via Twitter that he has passed his medical and signed a contract with Owen Coyle's side.
Australian international Matt McKay has agreed to terms with Scottish Premier League champions Rangers, paving the way for a switch from A-League club Brisbane Roar.
The 28-year-old midfielder featured in Australia's 2-1 win over Wales in their international friendly in Cardiff on Wednesday, and is one step closer to joining Ally McCoist's men at Ibrox.
The only stumbling block in the way of McKay joining the SPL powerhouse is gaining a work permit.
In other transfer news, Inter Milan's Diego Milito has been linked with a move to Russian side Rubin Kazan and Turkish club Galatasaray, as reported by Italian publication La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Arsenal are preparing to part company with Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri, to Barcelona and Manchester City respectively, with the duo's departure expected to be confirmed early next week.
Barcelona's offer of 35.1 million pounds looks to be enough for the London side, while Nasri is headed to City for an estimated 22 million pounds.

It is understood that neither player will be available for the Gunners' clash away at Newcastle on Saturday.
