Liverpool won’t expect to do too much business before the transfer window shuts – unless other teams come in first. For now though it’s all eyes on the opening weekend of the season.
Doku fee set if Reds want him
Jeremy Doku remains on Liverpool’s watch list and the talented Belgian international is all ours…if we pay Rennes’ inflated fee.
The French club want €45m for him, that’s around £38m, which altho attainable for the Reds would still be a hefty outlay for a younger player yet to really put a consistent campaign together.
We have him “in our sights” say Voetbal24, and the links are certainly long-standing ones given our interest in signing Doku a year ago.
A separate line elsewhere also says Ligue 1 midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni is a contender for the Reds, with Juve also interested.
Reds rumours of the day
- Neco Williams will be staying at Anfield this summer after a change of heart, or possibly no bids, but he’s likely to remain a Red in either case
- Renato Sanches rumours keep on circulating and Spanish rumours say we are the “most likely” destination for him, as Barcelona cannot raise the finances to sign the Lille man
- Jurgen Klopp has also taken the time to explain why the Reds have been quiet this summer – and what must happen for more signings to go through

When airing your views is a constant mistake…
Trevor Sinclair just said Liverpool won't get top 4 because Virgil can't play every game….he missed a whole season and we finished 3rd
