Manchester City has entered discussions with Liverpool to sign Cody Gakpo, as reported by Sky Sports. However, the Reds are evaluating the possibility of selling, considering City's late involvement in the transfer window, which concludes on Tuesday. It is believed that the move for Gakpo is progressing despite interest from Tottenham.
Negotiations are also being conducted regarding personal terms for the Dutch forward. This comes as Liverpool nears the signing of Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain for £106 million, which could rise to £123 million. At the same time, Manchester United's young player James Scanlon has secured a permanent transfer to Arsenal.
The 19-year-old Gibraltar international did not make any senior appearances for United but was part of their squad for the UEFA Europa League match against Real Sociedad in March 2025. Scanlon spent a season on loan at Swindon Town, netting once in six games. Arsenal's acquisition of Scanlon will see him join the club's Academy and Sky Sports News indicates that Manchester United has included a 50 percent sell-on clause in the deal.
