Liverpool are pushing to sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen in possibly the biggest transfer the Reds have ever made. It could well be the biggest any English side has ever made.
And it's one that fires a fairly intense warning to the Reds' rivals. Liverpool are not messing about here and want to improve.
Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy is certainly impressed. He thinks this is the transfer that seals the title next season.
"You know what the big problem [with next season] is?" Murphy asked on Talksport. "If Liverpool get Wirtz, it's done. 100 per cent.
"Have you seen him?"
Murphy went on to explain.
"I've seen bits of Wirtz, of course I have," he said. "But when I heard this was a possibility, I found everything I could on him.
"He's got lovely feet, where he can dribble past people with little bits of skill but his passing is superb. So he sees all these pictures.
"Normally, you're a bit more one or the other but he's got both."
We're certainly on board with Murphy here, though we'd wait to see what Manchester City do this summer before confirming the title. Liverpool, though, are prepared to do the unthinkable - win the Premier League and then improve massively.
