For all of yesterday's updates click here. Crystal Palace have gone to £50m after opening discussions revealed Wolves' valuation was closer to £55m which Newcastle had offered in the summer. It is understood the Larsen deal is all agreed between intermediaries but Wolves have still to formally accept the offer. Palace want to resolve the situation quickly with Jean-Philippe Mateta pushing to leave. The 28-year-old has agreed personal terms with Nottingham Forest , who offered £35m last Saturday, but their bid has still to be accepted. Mateta would prefer a bigger club but the likes of AC Milan or Juventus have not been able to match Palace's desired pay structure or valuation of around £40m. Crystal Palace have launched a £50million for Wolves forward Jorgen Strand Larsen Liverpool will take stock of Jeremie Frimpong's injury before assessing whether there is a need to go into the transfer market this month. Frimpong limped off after four minutes of the Champions League win over Qarabag and was replaced by Waturo Endo. Asked about whether Liverpool would look to sign a solution, Slot said: 'It always depends on, are there players available we think can help us, and if there are, can we afford them? 'And also, will it be helpful for the longer-term future as well because our players come back from injury. 'We have to do smart things for the near future but also the longer future. 'Let's first see how Jeremie is, maybe he's not able to play Saturday, but maybe he's able to play one or two days later. ' Liverpool evaluated the market following Conor Bradley's season-ending knee injury at Arsenal but believe there is limited quality available. Ibrahima Konate is expected back at the weekend while Joe Gomez who picked up a hip injury following a collision with Alisson Becker in the 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth, could be back in contention.
