Liverpool recruit Munoz and want Barcola too
Victor Munoz has been onboarded at a cost of £34m from Osasuna but more signings are in the offing. Ever since the Reds lost out on Yan Diomande - with the winger joining Real Madrid from RB Leipzig - Bradley Barcola has been the focus.

The Paris Saint-Germain winger - under contract until 2028 - is unlikely to sign a new deal with the two-time European champions.
Instead Luis Enrique’s side are intending to cash in on the France international during the current transfer period. The only issue for Liverpool is reaching an agreement with PSG over the transfer fee as the Paris aristocrats are holding out for around £145m.
PSG want £145m for Barcola
That is a little too rich for Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes - who seems keen to pay closer to the £100m mark for the versatile frontman.
Fabrizio Romano is not giving up hope on this deal just yet - telling the GIVEMESPORT Market Madness podcast that he expects “movement” on the Barcola deal in the final days of the window.

Barcola to Liverpool deal is on claims Fabrizio Romano
"They will definitely [be busy]," the Italian transfer guru says of Liverpool's impending spending campaign.
"I expect Liverpool probably to be among the busiest clubs in Europe in these final 10,12 days of the summer transfer window.
"Because for sure, there is movement on Barcola. There are negotiations and discussions on a daily basis between Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool. So it's about reaching a financial agreement, but a deal is on."
That sounds incredibly promising and PSG are also taking steps to ensure Barcola won’t be missed. A new-look attack is going to feature Ferran Torres, Mika Godts and Maghnes Akliouche - meaning space is going to be at a premium for Barcola if he stays.
Liverpool are also thought to be chasing a deal for PSG’s Ibrahim Mbaye but it seems as though that deal will be separate to business done for Barcola.
