Liverpool are out of the race to sign highly-rated Lille defender Leny Yoro.
The Reds' interest in the 18-year-old had previously been confirmed, but with the caveat that they expected him to move to Real Madrid.
However, it is Manchester United who have swooped in to sign him, agreeing a deal worth in the region of £50m.
Liverpool reporter David Lynch is here to explain why Richard Hughes and co elected not to rival the Red Devils for Yoro's signature.
There are also updates on rumours regarding Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi and RB Leipzig's Mohamed Simakan.
Let us know your thoughts on the news and what business you hope to see the Reds do in the comments.
