The summer transfer window is nearing the end, and despite spending big, Liverpool are not done yet.

Arne Slot's side have splashed over £300million to sign Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Giovanni Leoni, Armin Pesci and Freddie Woodman.

But the Reds are still actively pursuing more deals in the closing stages of the window.



Sporting director Richard Hughes has been a busy man after Fenway Sports Group greenlighted a recruitment drive in an attempt to defend their Premier League title.

Despite breaking their transfer record for Wirtz, there could be an even bigger deal still on the cards.

Here Mirror Football takes a look at the latest news from Anfield and beyond.

Time is running out for Liverpool to sign Alexander Isak from Newcastle before the transfer window closes.

And while Isak wants to make the move, it is not simple.

The Chronicle reports that Newcastle will sell Isak, but only if they can sign a replacement in time and Liverpool meet their £150m valuation.

Eddie Howe's side are reportedly expecting a second bid to arrive before the window closes on September 1, but it seems there are still many variables at play.

Newcastle have been chasing Brentford's Yoane Wissa and were also linked with Wolves' Jorgen Strand Larsen, although their £60m valuation of the Norwegian has put the Magpies off.

The other long-running interest Liverpool have is in Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi - and that is also yet to be resolved.

Palace won't sell their captain before the second leg of their Conference League play-off against Fredrikstad on Thursday, but chairman Steve Parish has made it clear they will do business for the right price, because they don't want to lose him for nothing next summer when his contract expires.

The Daily Star has reported that Manchester City could rival Liverpool for Guehi, if they lose Manuel Akanji and Nathan Ake in the coming days.
