Liverpool are willing to spend big this summer, having already splashed £116m to sign Florian Wirtz, as well as £28.6m on Jeremie Frimpong and £40m on Milos Kerkez.

The club have also brought in Giorgi Mamardashvili, Freddie Woodman, and Armin Pecsi.

Arne Sot’s side are still in the market to sign at least two players and have been linked with a move for Alexander Isak of Newcastle United, Eintracht Frankfurt star Hugo Ekitike, and Real Madrid forward Rodrygo.

The Premier League champions could break the British transfer record once again, having reportedly approached Newcastle United over a deal for Isak, with Darwin Nunez expected to leave.

No formal bid has been made so far, as the Reds are aware of Newcastle’s stance on the 25-year-old in that he isn’t for sale this summer.

Isak is the leading target for Liverpool this summer.

It is reported that if Liverpool can not sign the Sweden international, they will switch attention to Ekitike, who is also attracting interest from Newcastle.

Liverpool are also ready to rival Arsenal for Rodrygo.

The Brazil international has been at the center of transfer speculation?

He ended last season without a goal in 25 appearances spanning from March to this summer’s FIFA Club World Cup.

He was benched in three of Real Madrid’s six matches, as new boss Xabi Alonso opted to play Gonzalo García alongside Vinícius Júnior instead while Kylian Mbappé recovered from illness.

Rodrygo has racked up 270 appearances for Real Madrid, helping Los Blancos win 13 trophies, including two Champions League titles and three La Liga titles.

Bayern Munich are monitoring Rodrygo’s situation at Madrid, but Liverpool are positioning themselves to sign the Real Madrid forward.

According to Diario AS, the Reds are ready to do “everything in their power” to sign the 24-year-old.

Liverpool are preparing to send officials to begin talks with Los Blancos, who are believed to be looking for an offer close to €100million, however, any move is expected to take time as the Reds prioritise resolving the future of Luis Díaz.

Bayern have already had a bid for the Colombia international turned down by the Reds.
