LIVERPOOL'S record £116 million (about R2.8bn) Florian Wirtz transfer should be worrying to fans of rival clubs, not just because of the massive figure involved but the decisiveness with which they have moved in the transfer window.

The arrival of the German international midfielder from Bayer Leverkusen was preceded by the £29m (R704m) signing of his former Leverkusen teammate Jeremie Frimpong as a potential replacement for right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Bournemouth's attacking left-back Milos Kerkez is also expected to arrive at Anfield shortly in a £40m deal.

His pending arrival is likely to signal the end of an illustrious Reds career for Andy Robertson, with speculation rife of an Atletico Madrid move for the stalwart defender.

Rumours of another blockbuster move for Newcastle's lethal striker Alexander Isak are not going away either. He is seen as a potential replacement for flop Darwin Nunez, who is apparently the subject of interest from Napoli.
