Less than a week remains of the tranfer window and there is still work to be done for Liverpool. The Reds are flying high in the Premier League and Europe and have yet to invest in reinforcements to cement their push for silverware in Arne Slot's first season in charge at Anfield. There has been little movement within the first team squad since the Dutchman's arrival in the summer.
Thomas Hill has departed on a free transfer to Harrogate Town and Marcelo Pitaluga has exit to Fluminense , while Calvin Ramsey has joined Kilmarnock until the end of the season. For the senior side, there has been no advancement upon the summer signing of Federico Chiesa.
There is still time to get deals over the line however. Mirror Football takes a look at the latest news and transfer rumours surrounding the club. Slavia Prague chief Jaroslav Tvrdik has revealed that Liverpool and Chelsea are among the clubs interested in wing-back El Hadji Malick Diouf.
The 20-year-old has been the subject of two bids from Crystal Palace, with Tvrdik claiming the Eagles have seen a second bid worth around £14.3million rejected. The Senegal international could yet field interest from Brighton but the Slavia Prague chairman has said it could take an offer from the likes of Liverpool to tempt the club to sell the player.
Slavia are under no pressure to sell this month after alread seeing Antonin Kinsky depart for Tottenham and winger Matej Jurasek to Norwich City earlier this month. Tvrdik told media outlet Kudy Bezi Zajic: "If Liverpool and Chelsea, who were also interested in him, had come with an offer of around 17-18 million euros, I would have hesitated to approach it differently from the perspective of promoting the club or the player's interest.
