00:00Liverpool are preparing for a major summer rebuild under Arne Schlott as they aim to defend their Premier League title and push further in Europe.
00:10The Dutchman has been given significant funds to reshape the squad and transfer business is already gathering momentum with several key targets and potential exits making headlines.
00:22Talks are progressing with Bournemouth over the signing of left-back Milos Kerkhez who has emerged as a priority for Schlott.
00:30The Hungarian international is keen on the move and his Cherries teammate Justin Kluivert added weight to the speculation saying
00:39He'll probably go there, I hope so for him. He hasn't really said goodbye yet but I hope he'll make it happen there.
00:46Elsewhere, Liverpool are closing in on a blockbuster deal for Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wurtz.
00:52While Leverkusen immediately demanded £126 million, Liverpool are working on a package worth three figures guaranteed with add-ons that could break the British transfer record.
01:04Talks are ongoing but optimism is growing at Anfield that Wurtz will be the marquee signing of the summer.
01:10There's also interest in PSG forward Bradley Barkola, a player Schlott admired for his pace and flair but the focus remains on securing Wurtz first.
01:19Jeremy Frimpong has already been signed from Leverkusen for around £29.5 million and is seen as the natural successor to Trent Alexander-Arnold who joined Real Madrid after Liverpool received £10 million early for a transfer before his contract expiry.
01:36On the outgoing front, Darwin Nunes could be the biggest name to leave.
01:40Liverpool want close to £60 million with clubs in Spain and Saudi Arabia circling.
01:45Luis Diaz is another who could depart with Barcelona reportedly exploring a £60 million loan to buy option.
01:52Meanwhile, Jao Kwanza is of interest to Leverkusen who are looking to replace Jonathan Tarr and may include the centre-back in negotiations for Wurtz.
02:03Schlott's first summer window at Anfield is shaping up to be bold, busy and potentially transformative as they aim to defend their Premier League gold.
