Liverpool can kickstart their pursuit of a fourth summer signing with an important transfer agreed.

The Premier League champions have confirmed that both Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz have joined from Bayer Leverkusen while a deal for Milos Kerkez to join from Bournemouth is at a very advanced stage.

Frimpong's release clause was activated at the very start of the window while Liverpool, after seeing a number of bids rejected, finally announced the arrival of Wirtz on Friday for a British-record £116million.

Defensive reinforcements are also being targeted with an impending departure likely to result in another new signing.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Leverkusen have agreed a £35million package deal for Quansah.

One seventh of that fee will be available as add-ons with it also been claimed that Liverpool will have a buyback clause

Attention can now formally turn onto signing his replacement with that most likely to be Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi with interest from Merseyside present before he became a top Premier League defender.

The ECHO has also been informed that Guehi would jump at the opportunity to move to Anfield if it arose

With his and Liverpool's stance clear, it is a certainly deal that could advance as the summer window elapses.

To avoid losing him on a free transfer next summer, Palace may opt to cash in with Ousmane Diomande already identified as a potential replacement
