Liverpool plotting six transfers before Bournemouth opener

Liverpool navigate a busy final phase of the transfer window ahead of the Bournemouth clash

Liverpool eye six transfers before Bournemouth opener

Liverpool host Bournemouth on Friday as transfer chatter intensifies, with a busy week ahead and a crunch window looming over Anfield. Arne Slot has already brought in seven players this summer and the club is reported to have spent close to £300m, with more movement still possible in the closing days.

Isak remains on the radar after a rejected bid, and Marc Guehi continues to be linked with a potential move, though Palace would weigh up a sale or contract extension next year. Aside from arrivals, Liverpool are poised to sanction up to four exits as the window nears its end, including Kostas Tsimikas with Nottingham Forest among interested clubs, while Harvey Elliott and attackers Federico Chiesa and Ben Doak have also been mentioned in transfer chatter. The mix of big spending, waiting games, and potential departures highlights the delicate balance Slot must strike between immediate impact and long-term squad health.
