According to Sky Sports, Liverpool have completed the £67 million signing of Alisson Becker from Roma. Meanwhile, Roma's sporting director Monchi has emphasized that selling Alisson "would not show a lack of ambition" whilst confirming that the player was in Liverpool on Thursday.
He said,
"We haven't finalised anything yet (with Alisson).
"But it is true that the negotiations are advanced and he's over in Liverpool now."
With this transfer, Alisson will become the most expensive goalkeeper of all time.
Arsenal want Kingsley Coman
According to The Guardian, Unai Emery wants to bring Bayern Munich youngster Kingsley Coman to the Emirates. Arsenal will, once again, have to pay the big bucks to secure his services with the potential transfer price being quoted at £44 million.
The French international who missed out on a spot in the French team that won the World Cup in Russia is contracted to the German Bundesliga giants till 2023.
At just 22-years-old, Coman is very much a signing for the future. With playing time coming at a premium at the Allianz Arena, Coman might just agree to join the Premier League after all.
