Meanwhile, Liverpool have confirmed the signing of Scottish wonderkid Calvin Ramsay from Aberdeen for a fee of just over £6.5 million.

Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr is set to extend his contract until 2026 with an announcement incoming, according to reports.
The talented 21-year-old scored the winning goal in the Champions League Final last month and was an important figure in their European success.
Fabrizio Romano reports that the release clause will be an incredible £1 billion.
Youri Tielemans won’t be at Leicester next season after having his head turned by Arsenal, according to pundit Chris Sutton.
The former Norwich and Blackburn striker believes the long-running saga linking the Belgian midfielder to the Emirates has put Leicester in an awkward position.
Tielemans has one year left on his deal and Sutton does not see him signing an extension.
He told BBC Radio 5Live: “He has had his head turned. He won’t be at Leicester [next season]. That’s the big rumour, isn’t it? [Tielemans to Arsenal].
“The fact of the matter is that if he wanted to stay at Leicester [then he would have signed a new contract].”
It will take £60m for Chelsea to prize Raheem Sterling away from Manchester City, according to reports. Rumours of a Chelsea move for the England international are gathering pace and Sky Sports News now report it will cost £60m for the deal to take place.
The 27-year-old would add a pace and dynamism to a Chelsea attack that was criticized last season for not producing enough goals.
Where he would fit into the team remains to be seen, with several Chelsea attackers already vying for a spot in the first eleven.
Former Manchester City defender Aleksander Kolarov is retiring from football, according to reports.
Now 36, the former left-back spent seven years at the Etihad between 2010 and 2017. In that time, he won the Premier League twice along with a number of other domestic cups.
He made 165 appearances in his time in Manchester.
Romano reports the defender has called it a day on his career, with the full-back also spending time at Roma, Lazio and Inter during his long career.
Liverpool have released a video of Calvin Ramsey after his move to Merseyside from Aberdeen was confirmed.
He said: “It’s a dream come true to be here. It was a dream come true to play for Aberdeen, now to be at one of the biggest – if not the biggest – club in the world, it’s a massive achievement and I’m looking forward to showing the fans what I’ve got.
“I think making my debut would be special but obviously the more appearances the better. The main thing is just to get on that pitch at Anfield. It’s just going to be special.
“It’s a massive club and it’s an unbelievable feeling to be here and I’m ready to get started.” – The Sun
