The summer transfer window is getting ever closer and Liverpool are continuing to be linked with a host of potential new players.
Luis Diaz was the club's only signing in January with the Reds agreeing a £49million fee with Porto to bring the Colombia international to Anfield. They did also push to sign Fabio Carvalho from Fulham but a deal could not be completed before the deadline.
And with the season’s conclusion getting closer, rumours over possible summer transfer business are beginning to intensify - and here we look at the latest reports doing the rounds and how likely they are to happen.

Who?
Federico Valverde, Real Madrid midfielder.
Where?
Spanish news outlet Nacional .
What?
According to the report, Jurgen Klopp is a big admirer of Valverde and has instructed the Liverpool hierarchy to do whatever it takes to sign the Uruguayan this summer.
It has also been claimed that Valverde, who starred in a right-wing role in Madrid's 3-1 Champions League win at Chelsea on Wednesday, is valued at around £67million with his current deal at Real not set to expire until 2027.
The suggestion of not yet replacing Gini Wijnaldum, who left Anfield last summer, is cited as a potential reason why Reds boss Klopp could make a move for a new midfielder.
Who?
Christopher Nkunku, RB Leipzig playmaker.
Where?
French news outlet Foot Mercato .
What?
According to the report, Paris Saint-Germain are looking to beat Liverpool to Nkunku this summer. And it has been claimed that PSG hope re-signing the 24-year-old, who started his career in the French capital, would boost their chances of keeping Kylian Mbappe at the club.
Nkunku left PSG to sign for Leipzig in the summer of 2019 in a £13million deal and has also been linked with Arsenal.
Who?
Fabio Vieira, Porto midfielder.
Where?
Antena 1, via Sport Witness.
What?
According to the report, Vieira’s cousin, Mara Vieira, has suggested the Porto midfielder could be tempted by a move to Liverpool after Luis Diaz made the same switch.
Mara Vieira, who is the coach of Vilaverdense’s women’s team, told Antena 1: “If Klopp has already touched on Fabio’s name, as he has done with others, it’s because at Liverpool they are attentive to the younger ones.
“From there, it’s a matter of waiting, but it seems to me that he’s doing well at FC Porto, which is also a high-level club. There is no great anxiety to change, unless a great opportunity arises.”
