Liverpool and Manchester City are continuing to monitor Gavi's situation at Barcelona, but his current release clause has now risen to €100m. A new contract at Camp Nou is expected to bump that figure up to €1bn.

Fulham have turned their attention to Arsenal's backup goalkeeper Bernd Leno after struggling to agree terms with Lazio stopper Thomas Strakosha.
