Latest on Liverpool, Chelsea and Barcelona

Wednesday edition of game La Liga side’s stance on Yann Diomande is covered and Liverpool and Chelsea are mentioned.

The winger is Barcelona sporting director Deco’s favorite choice to improve the attack in the summer. Therefore, the La Liga winners had a meeting with his agent less than a month ago.

His possible arrival at the Camp Nou would depend on Barca not extending Marcus Rashford’s loan stay and Raphinha receiving an attractive offer.

Hansi Flick’s side contacted RB Leipzig to ascertain the conditions necessary to secure his services.

The latter aims to drive record sales of the 19-year-old product. Sport Points say the German claims suggest a fee of around €100m, which Barcelona cannot match.

Therefore, the Catalan club ‘gave up the dream’ of signing a winger and focused on signing a striker and centre-back. This should come as a boost for Liverpool and Chelsea.

Both Arne Slot’s team and the Blues, along with Manchester United, would be in a position to meet the fee demanded to sign him.

Leipzig are in third place, five points ahead of fifth-place TSG Hoffenheim. Champions League qualification would further strengthen their position to retain Diomande or demand a hefty fee for him.

Our opinion: Liverpool have the edge over Chelsea

In January Yann Diomande spoke about his desire to move to Liverpool.

That time, He said: : “I want to play for Liverpool. I’m a big Liverpool fan. My dad dreams of seeing me play at Anfield!”

This gives the Reds an advantage over others as long as they are willing to meet Leipzig’s demands.

The New England Patriots were active on the first day of 2026 NFL free agency. New England agreed to a deal with former Baltimore Ravens EDGE rusher Dre’Mont Jones in the first moments of free agency, followed by a deal with fullback Reggie Gilliam just hours later. Then, before midnight struck, the Patriots agreed to a three-year deal with left guard Alijah Vera-Tucker.

New England is entering the second day of free agency with still a number of needs. Below, we break down the five best players the Patriots are targeting after the first wave of free agency!

Romeo Dobbs, wide receiver

Romeo Dobbs is the best wide receiver available in free agency after day one. Dobbs would rank as New England’s current top wide receiver; However, it would be better if he finished as the WR2 in the offense. The former Green Bay Packer will suit up for the Patriots, and will likely be worth around $12 to $15 million on a multi-year deal.

Jaylin Hawkins, Security

Jaylin Hawkins improved with the Patriots during the 2025-26 NFL season, and he should be one of the top priorities remaining. Hawkins will fill a need at safety next to Craig Woodson, providing continuity for New England moving forward. The 28-year-old safety is projected to make approximately $6 to $8 million over two to three years.

Jauan Jennings, wide receiver

Jauan Jennings is a very interesting option for the Patriots. Jennings, who served as one of the top wide receivers for the San Francisco 49ers, can play inside and outside the slot. The 28-year-old wide receiver will start as the top target in New England. Jennings should get a similar deal to Dobbs, which could be around $12 to $15 million.

Leo Chenal, linebacker

Leo Chennel is a versatile linebacker who will fit really well in Mike Vrabel’s defense. Channell can play on the edge and inside, as well as rush the passer, defend the run and drop into coverage. The 25-year-old linebacker will be an excellent player that Vrabel likes on defense. Chenal should earn around $8 to $10 million on a multi-year deal.

Chig Okonkwo, tight end

Chig Okonkwo is the best tight end left on the board and that ties in with Vrabel. Okonkwo has great athleticism at the position of need for the Patriots, producing yards after the catch as a vertical threat in the passing game. The 26-year-old tight end is not a great blocker, but New England would sign him for his receiving ability. Okonkwo should receive $10 to $14 million on a multi-year deal.
