Agreement Reached: Arsenal Finalising Talks with Liverpool over Forward Transfer

Arsenal have an agreement with the 16-year-old striker, while the clubs negotiate compensation that could still be settled by a tribunal.

  • Arsenal is finalizing a transfer deal to sign 16-year-old striker Vincent Joseph from Liverpool, having reached an agreement with the teenager who became available this summer after declining a scholarship.
  • Joseph became available on July 1 after his schoolboy registration contract expired; because he is 16 and did not sign professional terms, Liverpool is entitled to compensation that both clubs are negotiating.
  • The forward demonstrated significant potential last season, scoring eight goals in nine international appearances for England's under-16 side and three goals in two under-18 Premier League appearances for Liverpool.
  • Bolstering academy ranks, Arsenal is also signing Cardiff City's Axel Donczew and Mylo Bernard, with head coach Adam Birchall set to oversee Joseph's development at the under-18s.
  • If the clubs fail to settle the fee, the Professional Football Compensation Committee will determine compensation owed, ensuring Liverpool receives value for training the teenager expected to join Arsenal.
