Liverpool are closing in on two brilliant signings right now. But watch out for a massive exit on the back of them.
Liverpool hope to complete multiple transfers before the window closes. Alexander Isak is, of course, at the top of their list and the dream signing.
That’s been the case all year - but Newcastle United will not make it easy. We’ll just have to see how the remaining days of the transfer window play out.

But he’s certainly not the only one on the agenda. Liverpool aim to bring in both Marc Guehi and Giovanni Leoni.
That’s a pair of centre-backs, then, and at a time when there’s arguably a lack of room for both. Could the Reds actually give decent playing time to each of them?
Well, there’s one way...
Ibrahima Konate has one year remaining on his contract. Just under that now, actually.
He's yet to agree on a new one at Liverpool, essentially forcing their hand a bit. The club needs to consider life after Konate and they appear to be doing just that.
There is one spot in the squad, certainly, after Jarell Quansah left. But with Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez both around, five centre-backs seems like overkill.
Unless Konate is leaving. Real Madrid want to sign him and while their plan is currently to make that happen in 2026 on a free transfer, there has been talk of an offer this summer.
