However, already there has been a focus on next season and defending their crown from the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City.

Signings have emerged as one of the talking points among Liverpool supporters after engaging in talks for Bayer Leverkusen duo Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz, with the Reds closing in on a deal for the Dutchman while work is ongoing to sign the German.

The ECHO has taken a look at the latest reports surrounding the Reds.

Liverpool 'going to win' Florian Wirtz race

Speaking to NBC Sports, David Ornstein has claimed that Liverpool are going to win the race to sign Wirtz

The reporter also mentioned that the deal would not only be a club-record for the Reds but also a record-breaking deal for a German player.

The 22-year-old is highly-regarded in Germany and the move to Liverpool has been said to immensely disappoint Bayern Munich who embarked on a very public pursuit of the playmaker.

Ornstein said: "Florian Wirtz, the Bayer Leverkusen playmaker, it was assumed that he would go to Bayern Munich or to Manchester City, but it now looks like Liverpool are going to win the race.

"They are in an increasingly strong position because he wants to join them.

"They’re ready to pay significant finances, it would be a club-record signing, and he’ll be the most expensive German player in history and he's going to be following, if he's signed, sealed and delivered, Jeremie Frimpong."

Dominik Szoboszlai seal of approval

For months, there has seemingly been a bit of courting going on with Milos Kerkez and Liverpool.

Needless to say, already Kerkez has struck a strong relationship up with Reds star Dominik Szoboszlai from their time with the Hungarian national team.

As Liverpool have raced to the top of the Premier League, lifting the trophy and a focus moving to the summer transfer window, as well as next season, speculation over a move to Anfield for the Bournemouth left-back has increased.

And his post in the aftermath of the curtain falling down on a historic season for Liverpool and the Cherries, Kerkez seemingly left the door open for a cross-Premier League switch to the newly-crowned champions.

"38 games, 38 started, we finished the job and broke the record, thanks to the fans and everyone for support," he posted on Instagram.

"Thanks to the gaffer for trusting me to start all 38 games and special thanks to the one above for keeping me safe and healthy and of course nothing would be possible without my family, I don’t know what will happen in next week but cherries family thank you!"

Among those to like the post was Szoboszlai.
