Erling Haaland 'agrees' £500k per week deal as Liverpool handed Marco Asensio transfer boost

If there's one thing Liverpool have proven in recent weeks, it is that Jurgen Klopp has assembled one of the greatest squads in the club's history.

Still competing for a further three trophies to add to the Reds' Carabao Cup success, there can be no doubting the quality of the current crop. Predicting who will come and go this summer is no easy task, though change is likely to be witnessed as Liverpool look to continue evolving.

Luis Diaz was one player anticipated to be targeted by the club on the back of the 2021/22 season, though this is one deal that was brought forward following interest from Tottenham Hotspur during the January transfer window.

Below are the latest Liverpool rumours as the rumour mill continues to turn.

Who?

Erling Haaland

Where?

Daily Mail

What?

Manchester City have reportedly won the race to sign Borussia Dortmund striker, Erling Haaland. The Norwegian international has long been targeted by Europe's elite and was tipped to make a big-money move last summer, which failed to materialise.

Pep Guardiola's side are understood to have negotiated a financial package worth £500,000 per week for the 21-year-old star, with a deal expected to be wrapped up 'within the next week'. The report adds that City are expected to trigger Haaland's £63million clause, paving the way for the clubs to edge closer to a full agreement.

Who?

Marco Asensio

Where?

Radio Rai

What?

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has admitted he remains unsure of what the future holds for midfielder, Marco Asensio. The 26-year-old is out of contract next summer and is yet to agree terms over a new deal with Los Blancos.

The two-time Champions League winner has emerged as a rumoured target for the Reds, who could be encouraged by Ancelotti's latest comments.

"Asensio has great quality. I don't know what's gonna happen with his future - although he is talking to the club to discuss the contract. He's always helping the team," the ex-Everton boss said.

Who?

Calvin Ramsay

Where?

Calciomercato

What?

Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt are ready to 'challenge' Liverpool for the signature of Aberdeen defender Calvin Ramsay, it has been claimed. The 18-year-old has enjoyed a breakthrough season in the Scottish Premiership, resulting in the youngster being linked to top European clubs.

The Reds have already recruited one youngster from the Scottish top-flight, agreeing a £600,000 deal to sign 16-year-old Celtic winger Ben Doak, and could turn their attention to the SPL once again.
