Liverpool have reached a verbal agreement for the transfer of Rennes centre-back Jeremy Jacquet worth up to 60m.

The 20-year-old, who Chelsea have been trying to sign, is set to move to Anfield in the summer.

Liverpool have agreed to pay a fixed fee of 55m plus a potential 5m in performance related add-ons.

Jacquet is set to have his medical with Liverpool on Deadline Day.

Chelsea offered exactly the same deal as Liverpool but over the past 48 hours when it became apparent that Mamadou Sarr would be returning to Chelsea and Josh Acheampong was staying, the player changed his mind and decided to move to Liverpool.

It is believed he is likely to play more regularly there in the long term as Chelseas squad is overloaded with young centre backs.

Juve-linked Toney: Staying in Saudi gives me best chance of England call-up

Ivan Toney believes staying in the Saudi Pro League will give him the best chance of an England call-up for this summer's World Cup despite reported interest from Juventus

The Al Ahli star, who is top scorer in the Saudi top-flight with 18 goals, is one of the strikers being linked with a move to Juventus before tomorrow's deadline. 

However, in an interview with the Mirror's Darren Lewis, the striker says he is already in the best place to convince Thomas Tuchel he is deserving of a spot on the plane to North America.

I feel like Im doing well right now and that continuing to score goals [here in Saudi] will give me a stronger chance to get to what could be my only World Cup," he said.

Harry Kane is the best finisher in football, his numbers are outrageous. I think hes scored more goals than games hes played.

For me, it's not easy to score goals in this league, is its not easy. Its tough. Being in, being a team that Im in, it gives me a chance.

We have some good players that enjoy assisting, lets say, and thankfully for them, they have a striker that loves scoring and wants more.
