Hello and welcome to our dedicated Liverpool live blog for Friday, August 10 including updates from yesterday too.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will address the media this morning ahead of the Reds’ season opener against Chelsea on Sunday. And there will be plenty to discuss – including suggestions a stunning £110m deal has been agreed with Brighton for midfielder Moises Caicedo.
The transfer rumour mill is still churning away in its final month. September sees the window slam shut and Liverpool look set to be very busy before then.
Romeo Lavia had been the name on the lips of everyone this week, with Chelsea entering the picture and tabling a £48m bid. But it appears Liverpool have done the same in reverse to the Stamford Bridge outfit by quickly moving for Caicedo and potentially getting their man.
Moises Caicedo – where do we stand?
Well, what a mad 24-or-so hours it has been then. Will he, won’t it appears that no one is quite sure where Moises Caicedo will end up this summer.
As it stands, according to the Times, is that Chelsea are preparing a new bid of £115m – which be a British transfer for the Ecuadorian. However, at this moment in time, Liverpool are the only club to have had a bid accepted for Caicedo after Brighton accepted their offer of £111m on Friday morning.
