Glasner surprised by Anfield £295m transfer spending

OLIVER GLASNER has admitted that he has been surprised by Liverpool's transfer activity so far this summer.

- 

The Reds have committed to spending roughly £295m after signing Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Giorgi Mamardashvili, Armin Pecsi, Freddie Woodman and Will Wright.

But the reigning Premier League champions might not be done yet. They remain interested in Alexander Isak, having seen a £110m bid rejected by Newcastle United for the wantaway striker last Friday.

Meanwhile, they are also in the market for a new centre-back with Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi one player of interest as they weigh up their options following Jarell Quansah’s departure to Bayer Leverkusen.

Liverpool are set to face Palace at Wembley on Sunday in the Community Shield. And ahead of the clash, Eagles boss Glasner reacted to the Reds’ transfer business as he admitted they had sent out an emphatic statement of intent.
