Meanwhile, Arsenal are reportedly ready to make an opening bid for the Brazil star and have informed Vinícius' representatives.
- Liverpool have joined the race to sign Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa, according to TEAMtalk. It is reported that manager Andoni Iraola is keen to add a center back, with Liverpool's defensive needs amplified following the injury to Joe Gomez minutes into the preseason friendly against Sunderland on Saturday. Konsa, 28, is seen as an option that could also provide depth at right-back when needed, and he also remains on the radar of Arsenal, while PSG defender Illia Zabarnyi, 23, is another option on Liverpool's shortlist.
