Liverpool fans are bracing themselves for a busy summer of both incoming and outgoing transfer activity, but it appears that one piece of news that many have been anticipating is about to be confirmed.

‘News #Bellingham: Dortmund wants to finalise the deal with Real Madrid very soon, as always reported via @SPORT1,’ writes Florian Plettenberg. Understand that a total package of €150 million is highly unlikely.

Internally, Real compares him to Tchouameni (€80 million). A possible package of €120-130 million, including bonus payments, is expected. #BVB has yet to receive an official offer’.

The update from the Sky Sports Germany journalist will be of particular interest due to the ‘€120-130m’ price tag that has been placed on the entire deal, including bonuses, which roughly converts to around £110m.

That fee appears to have been enough to secure the services of Jude Bellingham, as well as the figure we determined was too high for us to compete with other clubs or fully refresh the squad with whatever was left in our transfer kitty.

If Jurgen Klopp signs four midfielders for around £60 million each, only time will tell if we made the right decision to price ourselves out of a move.

It seems reasonable to expect us to spend at least £110 million this summer, but it’s all about striking the right balance of quality and quantity when it appears we need several players in the same window.

For the time being, however, a player who appeared attainable and who could be a stalwart of our club for years to come appears to be completely out of our reach.
