Otavio 'asking price' emerges amid Porto 'talks' as Liverpool 'target' set for West Ham transfer

The summer transfer window is well underway with high profile moves already over the line.

Liverpool have signed forward Darwin Nunez from Benfica in a potential record-breaking move, while they've also added youth to their ranks with the additions of Calvin Ramsay and Fabio Carvalho. In terms of departures, Sadio Mane has already completed a switch to Bayern Munich and Takumi Minamino is closing in on a move to Monaco.

As rumours continue to dominate the headlines, here's a round-up of all the latest Liverpool transfer gossip from around the globe.

Who?

Arnaut Danjuma

Where?

The Guardian

What?

West Ham have approached Villarreal over a potential move for rumoured Liverpool target Arnaut Danjuma, according to reports.

The Guardian claim David Moyes is eager to strengthen his attack this transfer window and the Hammers have made their move, although they could face stiff competition for the Dutchman. The article adds clubs across Europe are monitoring Danjuma's progress and it may be difficult to tempt him to the London stadium given he's already proved himself in the Champions League.

Liverpool have been loosely linked with the player in recent months, although after the signings of Diaz and Nunez, there are certainly other areas of the squad that will need strengthening first.

Who?

Otavio

Where?

Jornal de Noticias

What?

Liverpool have 'rekindled' their interest in Porto star Otavio, according to recent reports.

The Mirror claimed over the weekend the Reds were 'expected' to firm up their interest in the player this week following the departure of Sadio Mane. Now, Portuguese outlet Jornal de Noticias suggest talks are 'already' underway.

Reports added Porto may be willing to do business at around the £38 million mark, despite a rumoured £51m release clause in the player's contract. However, it's worth noting Liverpool have already added to their attacking depth this summer with the addition of Nunez.

Who?

Neco Williams

Where?

BBC Sport Journalist Natalie Jackson

What?

Nottingham Forest are doing 'all they can' to sign Liverpool defender Neco Williams, according to reports.

BBC Sport editor in the East Midlands Natalie Jackson shared in a tweet the Premier League newcomers are pushing to sign the 21-year-old. The Wales international has plenty of interest this summer after a successful loan spell with Fulham in the second-half of last season.

The ECHO reported last week the club are not considering any loan offers for Williams and expect him to depart permanently this window. It is believed Fulham were frontrunners to sign him, although Forest are also in contention.
