Liverpool move for £84m ace

The Frankfurt star has been linked with Chelsea, Arsenal and Man United.
And he is valued at £84million by his German club.
But reports claim Liverpool are leading the race after entering discussions for Ekitike's coveted signature.
United eyeing Mbeumo deal
Man Utd could make it a hat-trick of attacking signings as they eye Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo.
The Frenchman hit 20 league goals this season and is available for £50million.
United are already set to sign Matheus Cunha, with Liam Delap also reportedly on his way.
And Mbeumo could complete a new-look front three as doubts linger over the futures of Rasmus Hojlund, Joshua Zirkzee and Alejandro Garnacho.
Garnacho 'a goner'
Man Utd fans believe Alejandro Garnacho is a goner.
That's after spotting his disengaged body language at a fan event in Malaysia.
The Red Devils are in the Far East for a post-season tour.
But after Garnacho was reportedly told to leave the club by Ruben Amorim, he did not appear comfortable in a video posted online.
Cunha deal close
Man Utd are set to sign Matheus Cunha after meeting his £62.5million release clause.
Wolves have now given permission for the deal to be finalised after United already agreed personal terms on a five-year deal.
Cunha is set to undergo a medical at Old Trafford in the coming days.
And he could even be unveiled by the end of the week.
United's Delap red flag
Darron Gibson has warned former club Man Utd to NOT sign Liam Delap.
He told : “Honestly? I don’t think Liam Delap is an upgrade on Zirkzee or Hojlund.
"I don’t mean to take anything away from Delap but I don’t think he’s an upgrade.”
“Right now Delap is at Ipswich and there’s not much pressure on him. He’s playing with freedom but it’s different at United. They need an established striker.”
Osimhen close to move
Manchester United have received a transfer blow in their bid to sign Napoli star Victor Osimhen.
According to Sky Sports, Osimhen is in advanced negotiations with Al-Hilal.
The same source claims the Saudi Arabian outfit have offered the striker a mammoth three-year contract which could see him earn close to £15million per season.
While Al-Hilal are confident they will get the deal over the line, they still need to receive the necessary funds from the Saudi government to sign the Nigeria international..
Saudi's Ministry of Sports have not yet given the green light to release these funds, without which an agreement would be impossible.
However, Al-Hilal are not worried about this and their president has reportedly even received verbal confirmation of Osimhen's desire to join.
Fernandes on his future
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has said that he is keen to stay at Old Trafford.
I have always been honest. I've always said I will be here until the club says to me that it's time to go.
I'm eager to do more, to be able to bring the club the great days.
In the day that the club thinks that I'm too much or it's time to part ways, football is like this, you never know it.
But I've always said it and I keep my word in the same way.
If the club thinks it's time to part ways because they want to do some cashing in or whatever, it's what it is, and football sometimes is like this.

It is understood that a release clause of approximately £42m is included in Carreras' contract with the Portuguese giants.
