Liverpool have just over a week to go before the summer transfer window closes, and there is every chance more deals could be completed.

The Reds have made eight signings so far this summer and could add to that before the September 1 deadline.

Liverpool go into the game looking to secure all three points after their victory over Bournemouth on the opening day.

Away from the action on the pitch, Liverpool are still being linked with several potential new signings.

There are also rumours about some players who could leave Anfield before the deadline.

Here, the ECHO takes a look at some of the latest Liverpool transfer news and gossip that has emerged over the last 24 hours.

An update has emerged about Alexander Isak's apparent desire to join Liverpool.

According to Caught Offside, Isak is "pushing hard" to secure a move to Anfield before the transfer window closes.

The update comes after Isak posted a lengthy statement on social media on Tuesday night in response to the ongoing speculation around his future.

Liverpool are said to be in "pole position" to sign Isak this summer after months of rumours around the Sweden international's future.

RB Leipzig are reportedly still showing an interest in signing Harvey Elliott from Liverpool.

Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has claimed that Leipzig have identified Elliott as a top target this summer, as they look to replace Xavi Simons, who is increasingly likely to join Chelsea.

Elliott is reported to have already agreed terms on a move to Leipzig, with Liverpool still needing to agree a fee with the Bundesliga outfit.
