Liverpool and Leverkusen in final stages of Florian Wirtz transfer negotiations

Negotiations between Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen over a deal taking Florian Wirtz to Anfield are in the final stages, with the clubs speaking daily as they try to reach an agreement. Liverpool made an improved second offer for the 22–year-old Germany playmaker last week worth around €134million (£113m), with about €118.7m (£100m) guaranteed. Advertisement This proposal was not rejected as such and talks continue in order to settle on a package that is acceptable to both sides, but Liverpool have no intention to bid as high as the reported €150m (£126.4m) asking price for the attacking midfielder. The discussions — led by Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes and Leverkusen managing director of sport Simon Rolfes — are now mainly focused on the structure and specifically payment terms, plus the nature of any add-ons. A medical has also yet to be arranged. The first part of this summer's transfer window, created for the Club World Cup, has now closed and will not reopen until June 16, giving time for both clubs to agree the finer details of this agreement. The magnitude of the transfer, allied to Leverkusen not specifically needing a trade and Liverpool wanting to work within their parameters, explains why the parties are going into such detail over the situation and it is taking understandable time and patience to find a resolution. There is a level of respect within the dialogue that should produce an amicable outcome for what would be Liverpool's record signing and Leverkusen's biggest sale. There is, meanwhile, a possible departure from Merseyside in the form of Darwin Nunez. Al Hilal contacted Liverpool about the Uruguay striker on Monday and the Saudi Pro League team were made aware about the conditions of a move. Liverpool rejected a proposal worth €70m from Al Nassr in January and that sets a minimum bar if an exit is to materialise. Nunez is thought to favour staying in Europe — Spain and Italy being a priority. Atletico Madrid are among those considering the forward. The 25-year-old has scored 40 goals across three seasons at Anfield since joining from Benfica in 2022. (James Gill – Danehouse/Getty Images)

Iran Superstar Plays Down Exit Speculation: 'I Have A Contract With Inter'

Iran Superstar Plays Down Exit Speculation: 'I Have A Contract With Inter' Iran international Mehdi Taremi addressed his future at Inter Milan after today's 3-0 win over North Korea. Speaking to the press after the game via FCInter1908, Taremi confirmed he has no intention of leaving San Siro. Advertisement Mehdi Taremi signed a multi-year contract last summer after leaving Porto as a free agent. Indeed, despite receiving offers from across the continent, he chose the Nerazzurri colors. However, his first season in Serie A didn't go as expected. Forced to play second fiddle to Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram, he only made seven league starts. Moreover, the 32-year-old scored an unenviable three goals across 43 appearances in all competitions. For further context, his only goal in Serie A came from the penalty spot. Therefore, rumors surrounding his future have quickly gained momentum at the end of the season. Advertisement Yet, Taremi has no doubt and wants to stay Inter. Mehdi Taremi Addresses His Inter Milan Future RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA – JANUARY 06: Mehdi Taremi of FC Internazionale celebrates scoring his team's second goal during the Italian Super Cup Final between FC Internazionale and AC Milan at Kingdom Arena on January 06, 2025 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. (Photo by) Despite his club struggles, Taremi continues to be Iran's standout performer. His national team secured the 2026 World Cup qualification as Group A winners. Furthermore, he registered a goal and an assist as Iran trounced North Korea 3-0 in their final qualifying fixture. After the game, he spoke to the press, offering an update on his future at Giuseppe Meazza. 'I have a contract with Inter, and if they allow me, I will stay with this team,' he admitted. Though it wasn't a memorable season for Taremi and Inter, overall, there's still a place for him in this team. Advertisement Indeed, Joaquin Correa already left the club to join Brazilian outfit Botafogo on a two-year deal. Meanwhile, Marko Arnautovic will soon sever ties with the Nerazzurri as the club refused to offer him fresh terms. However, Inter may sign two new strikers in the summer, with Ange-Yoan Bonny and Rasmus Hojlund topping their wishlist.

Napoli in advanced talks to sign Milan's Yunus Musah

Serie A champions Napoli are nearing a move to sign American midfielder Yunus Musah from rivals Milan. Earlier today, it emerged that the Partenopei are working on a move for the USA man and Daniele Longo has reported about the situation. Advertisement Napoli had started contacts with the player's entourage earlier today and they quickly managed to reach an agreement over personal terms as well. Moreover, an agreement with Milan is also edging closer. Talks are at an advanced stage, with Giovanni Manna keen on pleasing Antonio Conte by signing Musah quickly in the summer. West Ham have tried to insert themselves into the situation but the deal will cost a total fee of €25 million for Napoli and that will include bonuses that fixed and varied. The deal is making quick progress and the expectation is that it should close soon, with Milan not against Musah's sale to Napoli at all. Kaustubh Pandey I GIFN
