Liverpool are still yet to announce the signing of any senior player this window since the arrival of new head coach Arne Slot.
However, with Euro 2024 and Copa America now ending, things are expected to hot up - and fast!
Here’s all the latest Liverpool transfer news from Monday 15 July.
With Alisson Becker still on the radar of the money-men from Saudi Arabia, Liverpool have reportedly lined up a surprise candidate to replace the Brazilian should he make the move to the Middle East this summer.
According to Spanish outlet Sport, the Reds are reportedly eyeing Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin as a potential replacement.

During his Playback Live Show, Romano disclosed: "Marc Guehi has been linked with Liverpool. I can tell you that Liverpool have been scouting the player for a long time. He's a player they like, for sure."
Liverpool defender Sepp van den Berg has been touted as a potential bargaining chip as the club seeks a long-term successor for Mohamed Salah.

According to Liverpool Echo, the club could be looking to make the most of the situation with their wantaway centre-back. The 22-year-old has been attracting interest from PSV Eindhoven, who themselves have a talent the Reds are known admirers of: Johan Bakayoko.
A position change might be on the cards for Bayer Leverkusen star Jeremie Frimpong amid reports that he has his heart set on a switch to Liverpool in the summer transfer window.

Amid reports that it's Liverpool that have 'most recently' been in contact to sign the 23-year-old, BILD claim the Dutchman 'dreams' of playing for the Merseyside giants.
Having said that, the Reds will have to move fast to wrap up a deal for Frimpong as it's been reported that his £34 million release clause is active for one week after the Euro 2024 final.
Liverpool are now clear favourites to sign Sporting CP centre-back Goncalo Inacio, according to reports.

CaughtOffside claims that negotiations are progressing over a potential move and that while the 22-year-old - who has also been linked with Man United and Arsenal - has a €60m (£51.5m) release clause at Sporting, there is the growing feeling that the Portuguese giants could compromise on that fee.
Caoimhin Kelleher may end up staying at Liverpool after all following latest developments surrounding Celtic and their search for a Joe Hart replacement.

Interest in the 25-year-old has been quite high but a switch to Nottingham Forest appears to be off the table with the Premier League side confirming the signing of Carlos Miguel from Brazilian outfit Corinthians.
And it seems Kelleher will not be joining Celtic either. This is because Record Sport understands that Kasper Schmeichel has agreed a one-year deal.
Reports that Liverpool have been alerted to Adrien Rabiot's availability on a free transfer this summer have garnered quite the reaction from supporters on social media.

The 29-year-old became a free agent after leaving Serie A giants at the end of last month, following the expiry of his contract. Should the club pursue a deal, he could be a shrewd addition.
However, many fans don't seem to see it that way...
