Liverpool's preparations for the new season are ramping up, as the team returns from the tour of the US and looks ahead to the next phase of pre-season.
And transfer activity needs to increase, too, with Bradley Barcola remaining a top target and his PSG teammate, Ibrahima Mbaye, another player to be considered this summer.
Wins over Wrexham and Sunderland were followed by a capitulation against Leeds in Chicago, as Andoni Iraola learned plenty about his team, which was a mixture of senior stars and academy prospects. Chiefly, the need for more squad depth was apparent.
Matches against AS Monaco and Como now await Liverpool, as the new Premier League season beckons the team forward for the coming weeks.
Before that all gets started again, the Reds will be hoping to get some deals done. So far, only two signings have been made, with Jeremy Jacquet and Victor Munoz joining the club.
So, with that said, you can keep up to date with the latest Liverpool transfer news and rumors with our live blog throughout another busy day of action.
