Hello and welcome to the Friday, July 28 liveblog for the Liverpool FC.

After Jordan Henderson’s difficult departure from the Reds was finalised on Wednesday, attention somewhat returned to incomings. As Liverpool and Al Ittihad continue their negotiations, there is the anticipated departure of Fabinho to be on the lookout for. However, there have been promising developments in the chase of Romeo Lavia as it is believed that a second bid is also on the way.

Finally too there has been some talk of defensive reinforcements as Jurgen Klopp must decide what to do before the Premier League’s return in just over two weeks. The club were reported to have maintained interest in Torino’s Perr Schuurs, whilst Barcelona’s Andreas Christensen emerged as a shock candidate on Thursday evening.
