The initial phase of the summer transfer window is set to conclude on Tuesday, leaving Liverpool with a brief pause before it can resume its business.
The Reds have already welcomed two new faces this summer, but rumors suggest there's more activity to come ahead of the 2025-26 Premier League kick-off. Liverpool has secured the services of Jeremie Frimpong and Armin Pecsi this summer.
Additionally, negotiations are underway with Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz and Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez, as the Reds aim to finalize these deals. Following Tuesday's temporary closure of the transfer window, it will reopen next Monday and remain open until September 1.
This leaves ample time for Liverpool to complete its dealings in preparation for its Premier League title defence. Here are some of the latest transfer headlines from Merseyside.
Victor Osimhen 'interest'
Liverpool is showing interest in Napoli's Victor Osimhen this summer, according to reporters.
TBR Football claims that discussions were held last month regarding a potential move for Osimhen. Manchester United is also said to be keen on the Nigerian international, who spent his last season on loan at Galatasaray.

While there has been strong speculation about a move to the Saudi Pro League for Osimhen, reports suggest that Liverpool could be a viable option due to the player's ambition to play in the Premier League. It's claimed he's not interested in heading to Saudi Arabia.
Napoli are believed to be asking for a cool £50 million ($67.5 million) for Osimhen this summer.
Antoine Semenyo update
In other news, Liverpool is once again linked with Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo.
Sky Sports has suggested that the Reds have added Semenyo to its list of potential forward recruits this summer. The report also mentions that Manchester United and Tottenham are keen on the Ghana international.
It's been hinted that Liverpool might have the upper hand in the race for Semenyo, as the player is reportedly keen to join a club offering Champions League soccer.
Tottenham can also offer this after winning the Europa League final against the Red Devils, who will be without European soccer during the 2025-26 campaign.
