rewrite this title Transfer news live: Liverpool join Osimhen race, Arsenal battle Bayern

It sounds like Bradley Barcola isn’t going anywhere this summer, despite reports that he would be interested in a move away as he fights for more minutes.

The PSG attacker has found himself competing with Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for playing time and had to settle for a substitute appearance in the Champions League final.

But PSG apparently do not plan on selling the 22-year-old:

Leverkusen are meanwhile looking to use their relationship with Liverpool to sign a centre-back, with Jarell Quansah on their target list.

That’s according to The Athletic, which reports that the 22-year-old defender is wanted in Germany, with an expected price tag of £40m. Liverpool are thought to be reluctant to sell Quansah, although selling an academy talent would add some PSR headroom.

Liverpool’s deal to sign Florian Wirtz is done and agreed with both club and player, but the small hold up is because the midfielder is currently on holiday.

Wirtz will travel to Anfield next week to complete his medical, when he will sign on the dotted line in a transfer worth around £120m.

Manchester United will not be able to purchase Viktor Gyokeres for £59m (€70m) after claims from Sporting CP president Frederico Varandas.

Previous rumours had seemingly revealed that Gyokeres had a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ with the club that he would be allowed to leave this summer for a price lower than his £85m (€100m) release clause.

But, Varandas has squashed those rumours and with it probably Manchester United’s interest in signing the forward.

“I can guarantee that Viktor Gyokeres will not leave for €60m plus €10m because I never promised that,” Varandas said.

“To this day Sporting has not had an offer for Gyokeres — neither today nor last season.”

Angel Gomes is set to join Marseille after the Ligue 1 club announced they had reached an “agreement in principle” to sign the England midfielder.

The former Manchester United youngster is set to become a free agent when his contract with another French side in Lille expires at the end of this month.

Manchester City have agreed a £12.5m fee to sign the Norwegian teenager Sverre Nypan.

The Rosenborg midfielder, who has been compared to Martin Odegaard, is expected to join and become City’s fifth signing of a busy summer.

City’s plan is to send the 18-year-old, who has been offered a five-year contract, out on loan to get first-team experience.

Manchester United have made their first summer signing and the biggest buy of Ruben Amorim’s reign as Matheus Cunha’s £62.5m move to Old Trafford has been completed.

The Brazil forward, who said he was a boyhood United fan from watching them in his grandmother’s home, has signed a five-year deal, with the club possessing an option to extend his stay until 2031.

They had triggered his release clause at Wolves and were waiting for the 26-year-old to return from international duty to finalise the move.

Andy Robertson has spoken about Florian Wirtz who is rumoured to be on the way to Liverpool for a record breaking fee this summer.

“He was excellent against us. He was the one causing problems, in the half space, running in behind, he can mix it up,” Robertson said.

“That was enough for me to see he’s going to be a top player. In the Germany team against us he was excellent. If we get him through, an exciting talent through the door.

“We have already got a lot of exciting talent. He’s a right good player and he’ll only help us. If he does get through the door we’ll be excited to play with him.”

Meanwhile Arsenal, who themselves have registered their interest in Gyokeres, are still pushing ahead to sign one of Mikel Arteta’s top targets, Nico Williams, but they may have been beaten to the punch.

The Sun reports that the Gunners are weighing up a first bid for the Spain international, 22. But Sky Germany reports that Bayern Munich are the frontrunners after already meeting his release clause at Athletic Bilbao. Is it too late for Arsenal to swoop?
