May 25th, British media Football Transfers reported that Liverpool joined the Portuguese striker Yorke, with the transfer fee of about 65 million to 70 million euros.

The media said that like many other top clubs, Liverpool is looking for a top striker in the transfer market. The media was told that Liverpool had contacted Yorke's representative to explore the possibility of a transfer this summer.

Sources said Liverpool is willing to match any offer for the 26-year-old striker, with the expected transfer fee ranging from about €65 million to €70 million.

However, the media also pointed out that the negotiations may not have entered a substantive stage yet, and Yorke is currently unwilling to conduct formal negotiations on its future. Portugal Sports has a chance to win the domestic double this Sunday, and the players are currently focusing on the Portuguese Cup final with Benfica.

Recently, reports about Yorke's future have emerged one after another, and sources close to the players have denied the claim that the players have reached an agreement with Arsenal. However, Yorke remains a priority target for the Gunners' No. 9 signings, and since Berta came to Arsenal, he has been paying close attention to the forward position in the transfer market.

As previously reported, Arsenal's representative will watch the game in the Portuguese Cup final on Sunday local time. Yorke certainly knows Arsenal's interest in him, but he does not think joining Arsenal is the only option. The player intends to make the best decision for himself and his career after the finals, and he is willing to consider all options, but it is undeniable that Arsenal is attractive to it, as is Liverpool.

Regarding Manchester United's interest in Yorkress, the media said that Manchester United's pursuit of the player is not as deep as the outside world said. Except for Arsenal, only Newcastle and Nottingham Forest have made so-called substantial contacts, which the media reported in December last year and March this year.

Yorcres will turn 27 in June this year, and he is determined to join a team that often has the opportunity to compete for trophies and compete in top events. If Manchester United wins the UEFA Cup final, he may consider transferring to Old Trafford, but it may be surprising that he will now be able to miss the European game next season.
