Joseph was out of contract with Liverpool, having turned down a scholarship contract. But due to his age, a compensation fee still needed to be agreed.
Reports in August then suggested that the two clubs had failed to reach a deal agreement, and the matter would go to a tribunal.

It seems that tribunal may now have reached a resolution, with Joseph posting a farewell to Liverpool on his social media pages on Tuesday.
“After 9 unforgettable years, the time has come to say goodbye,” Joseph wrote. “Thank you for the memories, and for making my time here truly special. @liverpoolfc YNWA.”
The expectation is that Arsenal will announce Joseph’s signing imminently, though nothing is official at the time of writing.

Joseph made his breakthrough into u18 Premier League football last season, scoring three goals in his two appearances for Liverpool.
The young striker has also scored eight goals in his nine games for the England u16s, with all of those appearances coming in the course of the 2025/26 campaign.
Arsenal have been on the lookout for youth strikers in recent transfer windows, and they missed out on Will Wright to Liverpool just last year.
But after completing moves for Blackburn Rovers’Igor Tyjon, Crystal Palace’s Mylo Bernard and now Liverpool’s Joseph, they seem to have found their academy additions.
