It's been a huge summer transfer window for Liverpool so far.
The club have brought in Giorgi Mamardashvili, Freddie Woodman, Armin Pecsi, Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez, as well as sealing the exciting arrival of Florian Wirtz for a British record transfer fee that could end up reaching £116m.
And they may not be done just yet.
Reports emerged on Tuesday, July 15, that the club hold an interest in bringing in Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak before the summer transfer window closes.
The ECHO understands last season's second-highest goalscorer in the Premier League, Isak, is top of the Reds' list as they advance to bolster their attack before looking to retain their English title.
Whilst the striker could end up being tempted should a bid materialise, no club-to-club contact has taken place at this early stage.

The Athletic reports Liverpool could be willing to do business around the £120m mark.
Such a figure holds significance as it would smash the current British transfer record that was set just 25 days ago when German international Wirtz completed his transfer to Anfield from Bayer Leverkusen.
Provided all add-on clauses are met that deal will tot up to £116m eventually, but up front a £100m club-record cost was involved.
In response to the transfer, former manager Klopp said: "There's no question about it, that's an insane sum.
Sometimes you need to get hold [of players from] somewhere else."

Klopp also added that Wirtz, even with his high transfer fee, would fit right in at Liverpool.
