Fabrizio Romano confirms 'agreement is done' for record-breaking Liverpool deal
The Reds have been incredibly busy in this early part of the summer and now that one transfer has been confirmed, another two are on the brink of being announced once their medicals are scheduled. Money has often been spent frugally at Liverpool, but the times are a changing and the club has no choice but to adhere to the new tide of transfer spending in order to survive. Advertisement Potential is now an incredibly expensive commodity and a track record of success is not necessary for a player to be sold for a significant transfer fee. Getting a bargain in this day and age is tough. Kerkez to Liverpool will break historic records Milos Kerkez's impending move to Merseyside has been rumoured for quite some time. The Hungarian is our priority signing at left-back and it's now inconceivable that anyone else could join. At 21 years old, the Premier League team of the season full-back has outshone everyone else and his game fits perfectly into Arne Slot's plans. You would struggle to find anyone with a better fit to us. Advertisement Not only is his potential enormous, but his current skillset is a major upgrade on the options that Liverpool have available right now and so the financial cost of signing him is irrelevant. We need him. But the reported £45m fee will not be a drop in the ocean. Jeremie Frimpong's move broke the club's previous full-back transfer fee record by over double, which was Nathaniel Clyne for £12.5m. Kerkez's fee - while unconfirmed - could almost quadruple Clyne's record, putting at least £15m on Frimpong's record which might only last for just over a week.

Dortmund agree £31m deal to sign Sunderland's Bellingham
Jobe Bellingham is yet to win his first cap for England's senior team [Getty Images] Borussia Dortmund have agreed a deal with Sunderland to sign Jobe Bellingham for an initial 32m euros (£26.96m) plus 5m euros (£4.2m) in add-ons. The 19-year-old midfielder had garnered interest from across Europe but it is Dortmund, former home of elder brother Jude, who are set to secure his signature. Advertisement Bellingham has played for Sunderland since 2023 and helped them secure Premier League promotion this past season, making 43 appearances for the Black Cats and scoring four goals across all competitions. The England youth international started his career at Birmingham City, coming through the academy before playing two years of senior football for the club. Borussia Dortmund experienced an inconsistent season in 2024-25 but had a strong finish to the campaign winning their final five matches to finish fourth and secure Champions League football for next season. If the deal is completed by 10 June, Bellingham would be able to play in the upcoming Club World Cup. Advertisement That tournament takes place in the United States from 14 June to 13 July. Bellingham has been named in the European Under-21 Championship, to be held in Slovakia from 11-28 June, but England boss Lee Carsley has said he will release players so they can compete in the Club World Cup. Mirroring his brother It is thought Bellingham is keen to follow in his brother's footsteps. Jude, two years Jobe's senior, also came through Birmingham City's academy before moving to Dortmund in 2020 and then Real Madrid in 2023. Bellingham is already mirroring his brother's career with the move to Dortmund and he was also named the Championship's Young Player of the Year in May, five years after Jude won the same award.

Alisson Becker expecting Liverpool to take up contract option
Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker expects the Premier League champions to extend his contract by an additional year. The Brazil international's current deal at Anfield is due to expire next summer. Alisson, who has made 298 appearances for the Reds since joining from Serie A side Roma in 2018, also intends to one day return to play for Brazilian club Internacional. Goalkeeper Alisson Becker celebrates Liverpool's Premier League title success (Peter Byrne/PA) With long-term understudy Caoimhin Kelleher having completed a transfer to Brentford, the 32-year-old will face competition from Georgia international and former Valencia keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili next season. Advertisement 'I've never been able to plan long-term,' Alisson told a press conference ahead of his country's World Cup qualifier against Paraguay, according to the Liverpool Echo. 'Obviously now I have one year left on my contract and another year of club option, which they will probably exercise.' Alisson has won two Premier League titles with Liverpool, in addition to the Champions League, Club World Cup, FA Cup and Carabao Cup. Before moving to Italian football in 2016, he launched his career with Porto Alegre-based Internacional. Neymar, Thiago Silva and former Liverpool playmaker Philippe Coutinho are among the Brazilian stars to have recently returned to play in their homeland following successful spells in Europe. Advertisement 'I talk to athletes who have made this move to return, some have had good experiences, others not,' said Alisson. 'Each one will have their own experience but I want to return, especially to Inter. I don't know when it will happen, but I still want to do it at a high level. That's what I have planned.'
