This update came just before a double update from James Pearce and Fabrizio Romano with the pair of journalists sticking to the official line put out by the club.

Prior moves for Aurelien Tchouameni and Jude Bellingham certainly indicate that there is a willingness to bolster the department in question regardless of whether or not a sale happens.
