Timo Werner

Where better to start than the RB Leipzig frontman who looks destined to leave the Bundesliga side this summer.

Liverpool are the frontrunners to sign Werner, who is understood to be available for £51million.

There haven't been any recent developments on how close he is to joining Liverpool, but Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas believes Werner's arrival could lead to Mohamed Salah leaving Anfield.

"I would be careful about Mane, as I believe even Lionel Messi picked him as one of his Ballon d'Or choices.

"Salah has been great and Liverpool fans love him, but the two they may want to keep are Mane and Firmino.

"They have more options about them, not better players necessarily. Salah is that type as he gets the goals."

Diego Carlos

Dejan Lovren is set to leave the club when his contract expires in the summer so Jurgen Klopp will want to recruit in defence.

Marca, as quoted by , report that a move for the 27-year-old is being weighed up, however, LaLiga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona are also understood to be interested in him.

However, reports that Liverpool will go up against Manchester City and Arsenal to secure the services of the £65million-rated Aouar, 21.

Boubakary Soumare

Xherdan Shaqiri

Switzerland international Shaqiri has made no secret of being frustrated at his lack of playing time this season.

Philippe Coutinho

Given he left to join Barcelona back in January 2018, Coutinho's movements don't really have anything to do with Liverpool any more.

However, we've included this latest rumour about the Brazilian as it would be a huge bombshell if it would happen.

Coutinho is understood to be looking for a move away from Barcelona, having hugely struggled in his time at the Camp Nou.

He's improved while on loan at Bayern Munich but the German giants are not expected to keep him on.

Chelsea have been linked with a loan move for the midfielder but it's Liverpool's local rivals Everton who have entered the race to sign him, according to .

It would lead to a whole new level of rivalry between the Merseyside clubs if Coutinho were to sign for the Toffees.
