Transfer news LIVE: Man Utd hijacked as Arsenal launch Viktor Gyokeres bid

Luka Modric will leave Real Madrid after 13 years this summer.

The veteran midfielder, 39, will play for Los Blancos at the Club World Cup.

He is then widely expected to join AC Milan.

Viktor Gyokeres is said to be feeling 'disrespected' over his so-far failed attempts to leave Sporting this summer.

Club president Frederico Varandas has denied that a 'gentleman's agreement' for Gyokeres to leave for £59m was ever made.

Arsenal and Man Utd are interested in a deal.

The forward will be allowed to leave for less than his £85m release clause, but is said to be feeling 'disrespected' by Sporting's stance.

Record claim that Gyokeres is even thinking of going on 'strike' and has promised not to play for the club again.

Discussions between Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen have been a theme of the summer.

Jeremie Frimpong has already joined the Reds, while Florian Wirtz is close to reuniting with his former colleague.

And it could now be Leverkusen's chance to benefit from talks.

According to The Athletic, the German side are interested in signing Jarell Quansah.

Leverkusen will have vast funds to rebuild their squad over the coming months following some major departures, which also included head coach Xabi Alonso moving to Real Madrid.

Quansah could replace Jonathan Tah, who is close to joining Bayern Munich.

Inter Milan have reportedly made a 'serious' enquiry over signing Man Utd forward Rasmus Hojlund.

According to the Independent, United will sell a forward if they sign Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon this summer.

Hojlund endured a tough season, scoring only 10 goals, and is reported to be 'frustrated' with his performances.

The report claims that he is intrigued by a return to Italy, two years after joining United from Atalanta.

Liverpool are said to have finally struck a broad agreement with Bayer Leverkusen to sign Florian Wirtz.

A deal was believed to have been close, but the specific transfer fee remained a small hitch.

Wide-ranging reports claim that the Reds will pay up to £127m for the attacking midfielder, including additional bonuses and clauses.

Liverpool seem set to finally get their man...

Arsenal are reportedly preparing to launch a formal offer for Viktor Gyokeres.

Club officials are said to have met with the forward's agent last night in an attempt to accelerate a move.

It came during a turbulent day for the Swede, who was told in no uncertain terms by Sporting Lisbon that he would not be sold for a reported 'gentleman's agreement' of £59m.

Gyokeres has been widely linked with the Premier League, with Arsenal, Man Utd and Chelsea said to be interested. But the Gunners now seem to be at the front of the queue.

CNN Portugal claims that Arsenal are now set to make an offer after speaking with Gyokeres' agent.

The player is keen to join the north Londoners.

Man Utd's move for Bryan Mbeumo could face a late twist, according to reports.

The Red Devils appeared to be in the driving seat for the Brentford forward.

However, Thomas Frank's move from Brentford to Tottenham could present a potential hitch. The Danish boss is keen to reunite with Mbeumo across London, according to the Mirror.

United had planned to sign Mbeumo after completing a move for Wolves star Matheus Cunha.

Spurs are also desperate for reinforcements after a dismal season that ended in the sacking of Ange Postecoglou.
