The arrival of Florian Wirtz is imminent in Liverpool after the Reds hit a historic £ 116.5 million deal and there are also some other transfers in the pipeline, because Arne Slot offers to retain the Premier League crown of the club
After their biggest transfer ever, Liverpool comes, while Florian Wirtz is preparing to arrive from Bayer Leverkusen for an English record costs of £ 116.5 million.
It is a seismic deal to show Wirtz's status as one of the top players in the world at the moment and Liverpool will hope that they can build their future around the talented German playmaker.
Wirtz will arrive at Merseyside on Friday for a medical medical before an official announcement is made and the largest deal of the transfer window is completed.
Liverpool was busy on the transfer market this summer, after he had already sold Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid for £ 10 million and replaced him by Wirtz's old teammate Jeremie Frimpong.
But Arne Slot is still planning to secure more deals to ensure that his party remains in fighting condition to retain their Premier League crown and to win further silverware. There are already a few transfers in the pipeline, so mirror football has taken a look at what is coming in Anfield.
Kerkez set to sign
The next immediate signature after Wirtz. A deal for Bournemouth Left-back Milos Kerkez seems to be anything but done and we are now just waiting for some that I have stipped and t's to be crossed before a full agreement is reached.
Liverpool is supposed to conclude with a £ 45 million deal for Kerkez, although it has not yet been formally agreed a fee with the Cherries so far. However, the father of the player did not prevent it from explaining the move “a foregone dealer”, which points to the inevitable arrival of the Hungarian in Anfield.
And Bournemouth has already signed the replacement of Kerkez – £ 14.3 million spent on Adrien Truffert van Rennes. Reports claim that the relocation of Kerkez can be packed by the end of the week and he is expected to enter as the first choice of the club on the left.
Liverpool Explore Isak Deal
This is a signing that Liverpool would really bring to a different level. Alexander Isak was one of the best players in the Premier League last season after putting in the top flight 23 times to help Newcastle to secure a Champions League spot.
But his sensational displays for the goal have left the Magpies cautiously to lose the Swedish international and it would cost enormous transfer costs to even tempt them to sell their star man.
However, Liverpool has still not given any hope to sign Isak, according to various reports, and are now basic work to see if a deal is possible.
After they have already broken their transfer record to sign Wirtz, they may have to shatter it again – and that can have consequences for PSR instructions.
It is said that he is the “dream goal” of Liverpool after signing Wirtz, but a movement is considered “complicated” because of Newcastle's restraint to sell.
It is believed that Newcastle would like at least £ 150 million for a player who cost them £ 63 million when he arrived in 2022 from Real Sociedad and scored 62 goals in 109 performances.
Can Robertson leave?
With Kerkez who does indeed arrive, that uncertainty for Andy Robertson, a man who was previously the NO 1 choice of Liverpool on the left. The Scotland International came for some criticism and Kostas Tsimikas last season to replace him with a handful of matches by Manager Slot.
The 31-year-old is about to enter his ninth season in Anfield, after he has won almost every trophy for him and Atletico Madrid is supposed to check him for a possible movement.
Robertson admitted that he was in the dark about his future while he spoke this month. He said, “We discussed [my future]Of course we have. We have had good discussions, me and the club, but what the future has in store, I am not sure.
“I only know that I fly on vacation and it is necessary. I need after a long season, and then I look forward to the preseason. That's my focus. I can't look too far ahead, I never did that, so I'm not going to do that now.
“I know that the position I am in, I know that I have only had a year left. A lot is being spoken about it, a lot is said, but my pure focus is aimed at being a father for the coming weeks and enjoying that time with the children.
“Then I will try to come back to the best possible form for the preseason, and then we will see what the future has in store when those decisions come.”
Diaz and Nunez Futures
Although the prospect of Wirtz and Isak is perhaps an exciting, Liverpool has to sort out the future of their other attackers, with Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez both linked to movements away this summer.
There have been claims that Diaz is “convinced” that the arrival of Wirtz will play the end for him in Anfield and he is linked to a move to Barcelona.
But reports from Spain say that the La Liga Club priority gives a movement for athletic Bilbao -wing player Nico Williams, who would put an end to rumors about Diaz if they close that deal.
Diaz has left for two years to his contract and Liverpool can be tempted to cash in, with Al-Nassr another interested party.
It is no secret that Liverpool will have to confirm some expenses to balance the books and Nunez can be another of the door. Napoli is linked to the towering ahead, while Antonio is looking for competition for Romelu Lukaku.
Liverpool would appreciate NUNEZ at around £ 50 million, which can be a stumbling block for interested parties, while Diaz is said to be priced for a similar fee. Whatever happens, the Reds must quickly sort out their futures and either benefit from their outputs or destroy the uncertainty.
What else can happen?
There are persistent question marks that hang over a handful of Liverpool stars, with Joe Gomez another player who could leave. The defender of England has been injured since he came to the club and missed a majority of the 2024-25 season.
It is believed that Liverpool would be willing to sell Gomez this summer after he had remained frustrated by his fitness problems. The Guardian has reported that Sunderland, Aston Villa, Newcastle, West Ham, Leeds, Burnley and even Rivals Everton are watching the 28-year-old, which is worth around £ 30 million.
Speculation that Federico Chiesa could return to Italy will continue, after the disastrous season of the winger in Liverpool. He signed Juventus for about £ 12 million last summer, but has trouble getting Match Fit and only one match in the Premier League started. Napoli and AC Milan are both connected.
Harvey Elliott is another possible extrovert for Liverpool after the 22-year-old midfielder admitted that he did not want to “waste years of my career”. Aston Villa has been advertised as a possible destination.
