Thiago Alcantara 'agrees four-year Liverpool contract'

Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara has reportedly moved closer to securing a transfer to Liverpool.

With less than a year remaining on his contract, Thiago is ready to leave the Allianz Arena, preferably for a switch to the Premier League champions.

As it stands, Liverpool are yet to agree a fee with Bayern, who are looking to recoup a fee in the region of £27m.

However, according to RMC Sport, the playmaker has already agreed to pen a four-year contract at Anfield.

The report suggests that the Spaniard has also chosen where to live should Liverpool push through a deal over the coming weeks.

Given the financial implications of the coronavirus pandemic, it is unclear whether the Merseyside giants will have to make a sale to accommodate the arrival of the 29-year-old.

Partizan vice president Vladimir Vuletic has confirmed that his club are in talks with Manchester United over teenage attacker Filip Stevanovic.

A report on Friday claimed that United had agreed a €12m (£10.8m) deal for the 17-year-old, who scored nine times and registered three assists in 35 appearances at club level during the 2019-20 campaign.

When questioned on the speculation, Vuletic told Buta Sport: "The negotiations are ongoing."

Stevanovic, who appeared twice against United in the group stages of this season's Europa League, has previously been linked with Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

The teenager would reportedly spend another 12 months on loan with Partizan before officially arriving next summer if the proposed deal were to go through.

Stevanovic has scored nine times and contributed four assists in 42 outings for his Serbian club.
