Latest Liverpool transfer news and gossip as the Reds look set to have a busy end to the summer transfer window
Liverpool have just over a month left before the summer transfer window slams shut for another year. It’s already been a busy window for the Reds with seven new signings being added to Arne Slot’s squad.
Hugo Ekitike became the seventh signing of the summer for Liverpool earlier this week. Giorgi Mamardashvili had already been signed last year, while deals for Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Florian Wirtz, Armin Pecsi and Freddie Woodman were completed this summer.
With the September 1 deadline just a few weeks away, there is still every chance that Liverpool could get some more business completed before the transfer window closes. Some of those deals may include new signings as well as some outgoings.

In a dream scenario, Liverpool would ideally want to complete at least two more new signings before the window closes. One of those deals would be the arrival of Alexander Isak, with the Newcastle United striker continuing to be heavily linked with a move to Anfield.
There is also the possibility of Liverpool needing to go into the market for a new centre-back before the transfer window closes. Jarell Quansah’s move to Bayer Leverkusen means that the Reds have just three senior central defenders in their squad.
Marc Guehi is rumoured to be a player of interest to Liverpool this summer. In a dream scenario, the Reds would be able to wrap up a deal for the England international to strengthen their central defensive options.
In terms of exits, there are some members of the squad who could depart. Luis Diaz is expected to be one of those as the Colombia international is given permission to complete a £65.5million move to Bayern Munich this summer.
There is also the possibility that Darwin Nunez leaves Liverpool before the transfer window closes, amid growing speculation of a potential move to the Saudi Pro League.
Plus, there continues to be speculation around Harvey Elliott’s future with the Reds and there is also likely to be rumours around other members of the squad including Federico Chiesa, Tyler Morton, Kostas Tsimikas and Ben Doak.
