A trio of new faces have already walked through the door at Liverpool this summer, with Calvin Ramsay, Darwin Nunez and Fabio Carvalho all set to don the red shirt in 2022-23.
Jurgen Klopp's primary focus now may be on outgoings, but rumours continue to swirl over the possibility of more incomings at Anfield before the window shuts.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest Liverpool transfer news, including updates on Naby Keita, Jude Bellingham and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Reds considering Keita, Nicolo Barella part-exchange deal?

Liverpool are reportedly considering a player-plus-cash deal which would see Naby Keita and Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella head in opposite directions.
The injury-plagued Keita continues to struggle for regular starts on Merseyside and is about to enter the final 12 months of his deal with Liverpool.
There have been suggestions that Liverpool could try to extend the midfielder's contract, but according to Calciomercatoweb, Klopp is determined to bring Barella to Anfield.
The Nerazzurri are supposedly after a sum of €90m (£77.2m) in straight cash to part ways with Barella, though, and the Italian side are said to be unwilling to agree to a part-exchange deal involving Keita.
Inter may have to part ways with one or two of their big-name stars amid their financial situation, but defensive outgoings are more likely at this stage.
Manchester United to beat Liverpool to Jude Bellingham?

Liverpool are reportedly at risk of losing out to Manchester United in the race for Borussia Dortmund starlet Jude Bellingham.
The 18-year-old has already become a star performer for both club and country, but he has already confirmed that he will not be leaving the Bundesliga side this summer.
An intense bidding war is therefore set to commence in 2023, with Liverpool regarded as one of the frontrunners to bring the England international back to his homeland.
However, The Express claims that Man United could instead be in a better position to sign Bellingham if Erik ten Hag enjoys a successful first season at the helm.
The former Birmingham City youngster was shown around Man United's training facilities in 2020 before heading for Dortmund, where he has registered 10 goals and 18 assists in 89 appearances across all competitions.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to stay

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was expected to be one of the first names out of the exit door this summer, with the out-of-favour midfielder out of contract at the end of next season.
Oxlade-Chamberlain's most recent Premier League appearance came all the way back in February, and Liverpool were believed to have slapped a £10m price tag on the 28-year-old's head.
However, the Liverpool Echo now claims that the Reds intend to keep Oxlade-Chamberlain on the books for the 2022-23 season following the postponement of their midfielder search.
The former Arsenal man is supposedly still regarded as a valued member of Klopp's team, even though he was left out of the matchday squad for seven of his side's final eight Premier League games last term.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has provided 17 goals and 15 assists in 132 outings for Liverpool since his £34.2m arrival in 2017, but he started just nine Premier League matches last season.
