Liverpool are riding high in the Premier League and in Europe, so it remains to be seen whether much business will be done at Anfield in January.
The main priority for Arne Slot and co at the moment seems to be resolving the future of three of their top stars. Speculation continues over Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk and all three could leave on a free transfer next summer.
In terms of reinforcements, the Reds have been urged by Jamie Carragher to sign a new left-back. But Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez – who Carragher recommended – looks set to stay put this month.
As we approach the halfway point of the transfer window, Mirror Football rounds up all the latest transfer news and gossip from Anfield…
Slot gets transfer boost
Nuremberg striker Stefanos Tzimas could be on his way to Anfield this summer after the club's sporting director Olaf Rebbe confirmed they would consider selling him on for a quick profit.
The 18-year-old is currently on loan from PAOK to Nuremberg, but with the German team he essentially controls his destiny as they have an option to buy the youngster permanently.
And as Liverpool sniffed around, Rebbe said of Tzimas: “We are not going to give up top performers in the winter, but with a view to the summer we are of course already looking at a few options.”
Zubimendi makes a U-turn
Martin Zubimendi IS set to seal a move to the Premier League just months after turning down the chance to join Arne Slot.
The 25-year-old Real Sociedad star was the subject of a move from the Reds this summer. However, he decided to stay in Spain after a late change of heart.
Arsenal have also been courting Zubimendi over the past 12 months. And as revealed by The Mail, they are now in advanced talks over a deal that would see the Euro 2024 winner move to the Emirates.
Duo could leave
Liverpool are willing to listen to loan proposals for Jayden Danns and James McConnell, it is claimed.
The Athletic reports that Danns and McConnell, who both played a role in Saturday's 4-0 win over Accrington Stanley, have attracted interest from EFL clubs looking to strengthen their squads.
And they could be given the green light to make temporary deals depending on what offers Liverpool face in the coming weeks.
