Hugo Ekitike is now the most likely player to next be welcomed through the Anfield doors, with Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards doing a remarkable job negotiating all the deals.

And, while speaking live on talkSPORT, former Liverpool midfielder Charlie Adam has given his verdict on the transfer business Liverpool have done this summer.

“They’re doing their business well, Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards are strong negotiators, and once they get their targets and get their eye on something, they don’t really let it go, unless it gets silly,” Adam said.
