GOAL rounds up all the completed Liverpool transfers in the 2025-26 season so far.

Arsenal are lining up a potential £60 million ($80m) deal to sign Tino Livramento from Newcastle but face serious competition from Manchester City, per a new report. The 23-year-old will only have two years remaining on his contract come the summer, and both Premier League giants are interested in securing his signature.

Liverpool have reportedly slapped a €10 million price tag on Federico Chiesa as Juventus consider a shock move to bring the winger back to Turin. The Italian international has struggled for consistent minutes at Anfield and is keen to secure regular football ahead of the World Cup, with the Reds open to a permanent sale to avoid a capital loss on their investment.

Aston Villa have struck a stunning agreement to sign 16-year-old Metz prodigy Brian Madjo in a deal worth a reported £10.4 million. The highly-coveted forward has arrived in the West Midlands to undergo his medical after club chiefs orchestrated a surprise move behind the scenes, beating top European rivals to secure the teenager on a long-term five-year contract.

Former Barcelona midfielder Gaizka Mendieta has suggested that Marcus Rashford may be acting as an agent at Camp Nou, with Kobbie Mainoo another of those to be seeing a move from Manchester United to Catalunya speculated on. If the Blaugrana are keen, then loan star Rashford could be used to help talk a fellow England international into treading a similar career path.

Xavi Hernandez is "ready" to return to management and has his sights set on the Premier League, but reports claiming a deal with Manchester United is imminent have been played down. While the Barcelona legend is a candidate to replace the sacked Ruben Amorim, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has clarified the current state of play.

Raheem Sterling is seriously considering ending his nightmare spell at Chelsea as he looks to escape a lucrative contract that has become a "prison." The 31-year-old winger has emerged as a potential target for Napoli, who are scouring the market for offensive reinforcements amidst a strict "zero balance" financial policy.

January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule. Some clubs need to raise funds to balance the books, while others can be left with not option but to unload an unhappy player who has made it clear that he wants to join a stronger side.

Manchester City have announced the signing of Antoine Semenyo on a long-term contract from Premier League rivals Bournemouth. The Ghana international winger has penned a deal at the Etihad Stadium through to the summer of 2031. The transfer package involved is said to come in at £62.5 million ($84m), with it possible that said fee could rise by a further £1.5m if certain targets are hit.

Ruben Amorim has been linked with a swift managerial return after being sacked by Manchester United. The Portuguese left the Red Devils sitting sixth in the Premier League but it seems his criticisms of the club's board sealed his fate. But the 40-year-old may not be out of work for too long, with the young coach reportedly lined up to replace a prominent figure in the game.

Arsenal are reportedly ready to enter the transfer race for Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi. The England international seemed set to join Liverpool on the last day of the summer transfer window, only for the Eagles to pull the plug on the move at the 11th hour. Manchester City are now among the favourites to recruit the 25-year-old, but the Gunners are now interested in the centre-back, too.

Former Barcelona star Gaizka Mendieta says that Sergio Ramos could be an interesting transfer option for Wrexham after leaving Liga MX club Monterrey.

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has admitted he is uncertain about Robert Lewandowski’s future at the club beyond this summer, casting doubt on the veteran striker's long-term status.
