We know Liverpool are no longer interested in Ismaila Sarr. Watford demanded too much money and besides, they have Diogo Jota now as back-up to the fab three up front.
But could they be launching an audatious bid for Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele? A report in Sport says Liverpool have made contact with Barca over a possible loan move for the young talent who has struggled with injuries since. his big-money move to the Nou Camp. It would be some signing.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM JOTA
Diogo Jota arrived from Wolves over the weekend as the Reds’ third signing of the summer.
But how did he get here? And what should fans expect?
We asked European football expert Andy Brassell just that.
‘Humble but ambitious’ Diogo Jota ready to prove his doubters wrong again

BREWSTER EYES PALACE
Top of the agenda is the future of Rhian Brewster.
The 20-year-old striker is looking for first-team football and with the arrival of Diogo Jota at Anfield this week, Jurgen Klopp has reportedly sanctioned Brewster’s sale.
Sheffield United are “mad keen” to sign Brewster, The Sun reports this morning, but the report also adds that Brewster’s preference is a permanent transfer to Crystal Palace.
Aston Villa are also in the race for a player who could add valuable goals to their respective seasons, having scored 10 last year at Swansea on loan in the Championship.
