Liverpool have one more fixture ahead of the transfer deadline - at home against Arsenal. Here are four stars who could appear for the final time.
The transfer deadline is incredibly close now and Liverpool are not finished. The Reds have players they want to sign - as well as players who could leave.
Now, exactly who leaves does largely depend on who arrives. Alexander Isak moving to Anfield makes it far easier to let go of attacking players.

Similarly, striking a deal to bring in Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace a year early would open the door for defenders to leave. Though in both cases, the selling clubs need to quickly decide what they want to do.
So with that in mind, Liverpool host Arsenal on Sunday knowing certain stars could actually leave the next day. If things go a certain way, that is.
Here are four who might play for Liverpool for the final time.
Harvey Elliott is the most obvious exit of the lot. He's been heavily linked with RB Leipzig, who have just sold Xavi Simons to Tottenham Hotspur.
That sale leaves them wanting a replacement and by all accounts, Elliott is their pick for that. They've also now got the funds to make it happen, should Liverpool be open to it.
And that depends on incoming players. Signing Isak, for instance, reduces the need for Elliott and it might be that deal that truly seals the playmaker's fate.
Similarly, Federico Chiesa could be deemed surplus to requirements if another forward arrives. Chiesa barely played last season, though Arne Slot has given him minutes in both Premier League fixtures so far.
Isak’s potential arrival asks questions of those minutes, though. Would Chiesa still get them if another elite forward was available? We’re not so sure.
It would be a late one and we do expect Chiesa to remain with Liverpool beyond the window, but no one should rule out a move at the deadline if Isak does indeed join.
Now, this one certainly only happens if Guehi joins Liverpool. Even then, we'd be shocked to see Ibrahima Konate leave.
But he's within the final year of his contract and Real Madrid are certainly eager to sign him. A late bid from Los Blancos to sign him early, coupled with Liverpool signing his replacement, really could see something late happen.
Again, we wouldn't hold our breath and it would be a shock - but there is a way this could happen.
