However, according to Sky Deutschland, Dortmund are ready to offer Haaland a new deal which would double his salary to £15m, while the proposed agreement would delay the release clause until 2023, allowing the Bundesliga giants to keep hold of him next summer.

However, reports have frequently claimed that the 21-year-old possesses a release clause in his contract and that Dortmund may have to sell their most prized asset due to being listed on the stock exchange.

Haaland will move to the Etihad Stadium after City opted to trigger the forward’s release clause, reportedly 75 million euros (£64 million, $79 million).

With Dortmund set to lose Erling Haaland to Manchester City, it is not surprising that they will fight tooth and nail to keep Bellingham. Losing two key players in the same summer is something they are not willing to consider.

It has been claimed previously that Dortmund would demand around £90m for Bellingham, making it very unlikely that he will be moving to Anfield anytime soon.

The striker could be considered as a target if the likes of Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino were to leave Anfield this summer. Adeyemi could be seen as a younger replacement for one of the pair, who are closing in on the final twelve months of their contracts.

As Romano points out, though, Carvalho and his agent are keen on completing a deal with Liverpool, so if everything goes to plan, the player is still likely to move to Anfield at the end of the season.

The likes of Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Bayern Munich are all thought to be in the running to sign Zakaria, who is free to enter negotiations with foreign clubs over a free transfer in the summer.
