Liverpool Football Club is actively enhancing its squad during the ongoing summer transfer window, following their successful Premier League title campaign. The Reds’ latest acquisition is Hugo Ekitike, who arrived from Eintracht Frankfurt for a fee potentially reaching £79 million, marking the club’s seventh signing this summer.
With this latest signing, Liverpool’s total expenditure has reached approximately £295 million, including add-ons. The club is also keeping an eye on Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak, which could push their transfer spending past the £400 million mark before the window closes.
Although there is interest in Isak, Liverpool has yet to submit a formal offer for the striker. Nevertheless, they are poised to finalize another forward shortly.
In addition, Liverpool is reportedly nearing a deal for Will Wright, having agreed to an initial £200,000 transfer from Salford City. The teenage striker will initially join the Under-21 squad after passing his medical examination. This development comes on the heels of Luis Diaz being granted permission to leave the pre-season training camp in Tokyo to finalize a lucrative transfer to Bayern Munich. The Colombian is expected to complete a £65.5 million move in the coming days.
Liverpool’s summer transfer activity is far from over, as the club is still exploring options to bolster their defense. Notable players like Darwin Nunez, Federico Chiesa, and Harvey Elliott are also rumored to be potential departures.
With the transfer window remaining open until 11 PM on September 1, sporting director Richard Hughes is busy orchestrating new deals. Here’s a summary of Liverpool’s confirmed transfers thus far this summer:
