Ryan Gravenberch 'flight' tracked to UK as Liverpool race to complete deadline day deal

Ryan Gravenberch 'flight' tracked to UK as Liverpool race to complete deadline day deal

He's on his way to Anfield.

Liverpool could be about to complete the signing of Ryan Gravenberch from Bayern Munich on deadline day.

Liverpool look set to sign the 21-year-old midfielder in the final hours of the transfer window after agreeing a deal with Bayern for the Netherlands international.

Jurgen Klopp's side have agreed a deal worth an initial €40m (£34.25m) and a further €5m in add-ons for Gravenberch, who is poised to undergo a medical with the Merseyside club on Friday morning.

Should he pass that medical, he is expected to sign a five-year deal at Anfield - becoming the club's fourth signing of the summer after Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and Wataru Endo.

Gravenberch is believed to have already landed in the UK on Friday morning ahead of his medical after fans tracked a flight from Munich to Liverpool.

A Bombardier Challenger 604 with the registration DAAAY set off from Germany at 6.21am this morning and landed in Liverpool around two hours later.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano later confirmed that Gravenberch had travelled to Merseyside.

"Ryan Gravenberch, landing in Liverpool in some minutes," tweeted Romano.

"Medical tests right after for the Dutch midfielder as new #LFC player, then time to put pen on paper. Contract until June 2028."

On Thursday, German football expert Christian Falk confirmed that Klopp had pushed hard for Liverpool to sign Gravenberch before the window closed.

"Jurgen Klopp convinced Gravenberch that he will be perfect for the Liverpool system," tweeted Falk.


Gravenberch is a long-time target of Liverpool and now looks set to join the Premier League club.

The midfielder was monitored by the Reds before he left Ajax for Bayern last year and has been on Klopp's list of preferred candidates for his midfield overhaul all summer.

Liverpool met with Gravenberch's representatives several months ago but the player held off agreeing to a move before the start of the new Bundesliga season.

He has played only 10 minutes for Bayern so far this campaign and has now been allowed to leave after the Bundesliga champions, who are set to sign Fulham's Joao Palhinha as his replacement.
