Milos Kerkez's £40million switch from Bournemouth to Liverpool is almost done.
The Hungarian defender is set to fly into the UK from Belgrade and undergo a medical today, according to the Athletic's David Ornstein.
The Reds have wasted no time in the transfer market since they were crowned champions by already spending £146million on new arrivals.
Dutch full-back Jeremie Frimpong was first through the door with a £29.5m move from Bayer Leverkusen, signing a five-year deal.
Wirtz became the second arrival at Anfield on Friday as he also joined from Leverkusen in a British transfer record deal worth £116.5m.
The completion of that move has accelerated the arrival of Kerez, who has already been replaced at Bournemouth by Adrien Truffert.

Jude Bellingham jokingly fanned the flames of a family feud with brother Jobe at the Club World Cup.
A day after Jobe scored his first goal for Borussia Dortmund, his older brother opened the scoring for Real Madrid in their win over Mexican side Pachuca.
It marks the first time the Bellingham siblings have scored in the same competition, and first time ever brothers have done so at the same Club World Cup.
Asked if his brother's goal was on his mind, Jude Bellingham told DAZN: "A little bit, I've got to be honest.
"We're 1-1 now and we'll see for the rest of the tournament," the England midfielder joked to DAZN.

Ryan Mason is closing in on making forgotten Liverpool man Nat Phillips his first signing as the new West Brom boss.
Phillips, who is expecting a baby with his partner, Molly Moorish-Gallagher, the daughter of Oasis frontman Liam, is looking to finalise a permanent transfer away from Anfield after six loans.
The 28-year-old, who has one year left on his Liverpool contract, was most recently at Derby last season.
According to the Telegraph, the defender is now close to signing for West Brom in a permanent deal.
Phillips, who joined Liverpool in 2016 from Bolton's academy, has struggled to break into the senior side in his near-decade at the club.
His only consistent run in the Reds first-team came under Jurgen Klopp during the COVID 2020-21 season, after fellow centre-backs Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez suffered serious injuries.
He has made 19 appearances for Liverpool, with his only goal coming in a 3-0 win away at Burnley in May 2021.

New York Jets co-owner Woody Johnson has reached an agreement with John Textor to buy his shares in Crystal Palace, talkSPORT understands.
The deal for Textor's 43 per cent stake, worth in excess of £171million [€200m], is subject to Premier League approval.
UEFA are now expected to ratify FA Cup winners Palace's participation in the Europa League by the end of this month.
The Eagles had been in danger of being dumped out of Europe's second-tier competition due to UEFA's multi-club ownership rules.
That is because Textor also controls Ligue 1 giants Lyon, who will also be plying their trade in the Europa League in the 2025/26 season.
Textor became involved in Palace in August 2021, where he invested £86m for 43 per cent of the ownership of the club.

Alejandro Garnacho risks alienating himself from Manchester United fans (if he hasn't already) by wearing an Aston Villa shirt on holiday.
The Argentina winger, who has been told to find a new club by Red Devils boss Ruben Amorim, shared a series of snaps to fans of his holiday to Ibiza.
The photo album on his Instagram post shows Garnacho chilling out in the pool as well as in the sea or visiting night spots of the famous Spanish party island.
However, the standout picture sees him don a replica jersey of a rival Premier League club of Man United's in Villa.
In the photo Garnacho has his back to camera, as he reveals he has Man United teammate Marcus Rashford's name and no.9 on the back of the Villa shirt.
Rashford, who spent the second half of the 2024/25 season on loan at Villa Park, enjoyed Garnacho's post, commenting: "My brother [love heart emoji]."
Needless to say, Man United fans will think differently...

Chelsea have been urged not to give up their transfer pursuit of Mike Maignan.
The AC Milan goalkeeper should be regarded as a must-sign player for the London club this summer, according to a former Blues star who insists their current options are not good enough.
Chelsea looked set to land the experienced France international on deadline day of the mini transfer window before the start of the FIFA Club World Cup.
However, the deal collapsed at the last minute with AC Milan holding out for their £25million asking price for the 29-year-old, who only has one year left on his contract.
Chelsea were only willing to pay around £15m, and so walked away from the deal.
Having pulled out of the deal for Maignan, manager Enzo Maresca has insisted he and the club are ‘happy’ with their current selection of goalkeepers.
But former Chelsea defender Scott Minto isn’t, and neither are a lot of the Stamford Bridge faithful.
“They still need a new goalkeeper, in my opinion,” Minto told talkSPORT.
“They have allegedly ended their pursuit of Mike Maignan, but I would be very surprised if that was the case.
“Maresca has come out and said they are happy with the keepers they’ve got - you’re not!
If you were chasing Maignan and Milan had given you the price you wanted, then you would have brought him in, so clearly you’re not happy with your goalkeepers.
“As much as Sanchez has improved and he's not messing around at the back so much, for me he’s still not a goalkeeper that will take Chelsea to a Premier League or Champions League title.
“So just go an extra few million for Mike Maignan.”

Pep Guardiola has said he would be happy to manage a team in South America.
The Manchester City boss is revelling in the multi-cultural atmosphere at the Club World Cup and admits the football in countries such as Brazil and Argentina holds huge appeal.
Guardiola has not necessarily got any plans to leave the Etihad Stadium - and has two years remaining on his contract - but did not reject the idea when asked ahead of City's clash with Al Ain in Atlanta.
The Spaniard said: "Why not?
But Guehi is prepared to take his time and isn’t ruling out letting his contract run down.
One key factor for him is game time ahead of the World Cup next year.
The Eagles are hoping to get £50 million for the defender, with Liverpool and Newcastle United interested.

Aaron Ramsdale is being lined up for a summer move to Galatasaray, according to The Times.
The former Arsenal goalkeeper suffered the third relegation of his career last season when Southampton went down.
The Saints are unlikely to be able to keep Ramsdale this year because he has aims to go to the World Cup, and a transfer abroad could appeal.
Galatasaray's long-serving goalkeeper Fernando Muslera is set to leave the club this summer after 14 years, so they need a new shot-stopper.
However, any deal would likely be a loan.

Liverpool's transfer team are delivering this summer, as it is now being reported they have secured a buyback clause in the Jarell Quansah sale.
Fabrizio Romano claims that as well as pocketing £30 million from Bayer Leverkusen for Quansah, the Reds are also set to receive £5m in add-ons.
There is also a buyback clause inserted into the contract.
It's unclear what the terms of that buyback clause are, but if he does well in the Bundesliga, we could see him back at Anfield in a few years.

talkSPORT understands that Everton are in talks with Kenny Tete.
The right-back is a free agent, with his contract at Fulham not being renewed.
Nothing is agreed yet, but if Tete were to join David Moyes' men, any potential deal for Kyle Walker would be off.
Walker has been linked with a transfer to join the Toffees as well, with his time at Manchester City over.
Everton currently have Nathan Patterson and Seamus Coleman as options at right-back after losing Ashley Young.

Manchester City defender John Stones has opened up on his injury-hit season ahead of his potential return.
The centre-back hasn't played for the Citizens for months, but he is in the Club World Cup squad to face Al Ain today.
And ahead of the game, he opened up on his injury hell.
He said: "It's difficult when you're injured, you almost work longer and more, so from that aspect I know the guys mentally and physically have had such a long season.
They've signed an exceptional talent in Florian Wirtz."

Marc Guehi is willing to let his contract run down and leave Crystal Palace on a free transfer next summer, talkSPORT understands.
Liverpool and Newcastle are both keeping tabs on England defender Guehi.
European giants Barcelona and Bayern Munich would also be keen to snap up Guehi as a free agent in a year's time.
Guehi was the subject of four bids from Newcastle last summer.
Meanwhile Tottenham Hotspur had a £70million bid rejected for the centre-back in the winter transfer window.

Leicester are set to sack Ruud van Nistelrooy after July 1, talkSPORT understands.

Manchester United legend Van Nistelrooy lost 19 of his 27 games in charge.
Leicester director of football John Ruskin has been pushing for Sean Dyche to replace the Dutchman.
But club sources have denied the former Burnley boss has been lined up to take over.
Sheffield Wednesday boss Danny Rohl is another that is admired by Leicester.

Ashley Young has teased a return to Aston Villa - two years on from his departure.
The 39-year-old is a free agent after being released by Everton.
And Young has taken to Instagram where he has hinted at going back to his former stomping ground.
Young shared an image of himself upon his signing at Villa in 2021, which was his second spell at the club.
Captioning the picture, he said, 'Four years ago...
Obviously, you can't go back down [with] them points deductions and all that sort of stuff.
"So it still has to be monitored going forward I think, their spending.
"I don't know the truth of the amounts, but it will have to be balanced out still against financial fair play to make sure the club's in better health as it goes forward."

Harry Kane opened the scoring for Bayern in the first half before the Argentinian side hit back.
Miguel Merentiel hauled Boca level midway through the second half before Olise broke Boca's hearts.

Liverpool's Jarell Quansah is closing in on a move to Bayer Leverkusen.
Fabrizio Romano reports the Reds are set to pocket around £30 million for the centre-back.
Quansah's departure will immediately follow Florian Wirtz joining Liverpool from Leverkusen.
Wirtz's move to Anfield is a British transfer record, but the Reds will recoup a good chunk of that through Quansah.
