Focus will then shift back to the Premier League and a run of away matches, starting at Fulham on Sunday.

It is going to be a busy summer at Anfield, regardless of what happens in the next few weeks, as Klopp departs and his successor arrives.

Here is the Liverpool.com verdict on the transfer gossip to emerge around the Reds today.



Raphinha (Barcelona)

According to Spanish outlet SPORT, Barcelona has rejected an offer of around $63m (€60m/£51m) from an unnamed Premier League for Brazilian winger Raphinha.

Barcelona is reportedly 'happy' with Raphinha's performance and would likely only accept an offer for the winger if it was 'irrefutable' in the summer transfer window.

He impressed against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League recently and could emerge as a potential target, if Salah does decide to leave Anfield.

Anthony Patterson (Sunderland)

Liverpool has reportedly identified Sunderland goalkeeper Anthony Patterson as a potential replacement for Caoimhín Kelleher this summer

According to the Daily Mail, the Reds are preparing for life without Kelleher, after he sparked the interest of several suitors while filling in for the injured Alisson Becker.

The Republic of Ireland international was the subject of transfer interest from Nottingham Forest during the January transfer window but Liverpool were keen to keep him

Patterson has started 89 games across the last two campaigns, keeping 27 clean sheets.

Liverpool.com says: Patterson would be a strong option for Liverpool to consider
