Despite spending £450m last summer and then signing Jeremy Jacquet in January, Liverpool are once again expected to be active in the transfer market later this year.Liverpool’s transfer budget could be impacted if they do not finish in a Champions League place this term, but as finance expert Adam Williams told Rousing The Kop, they could ‘still spend pretty significantly’ later this year even without top-tier European football.Now, Fabrizio Romano has outlined the Reds’ plans to sign at least one, and maybe two, wingers in the upcoming window.

I mean, he’s one of the best players in the world. “He’s doing fantastic at Bayern, so obviously many links with Liverpool because Liverpool will add players on the winger position.“So Liverpool will do something there.

But at the moment, Michael Olise is seen as an unrealistic target because he doesn’t have a release clause, and also because Bayern absolutely want to keep Olise.” Discuss: Diomande has already proven he’s the BEST replacement for Mo Salah!
