Echo: Liverpool s summer window signings have not ended yet, and spending of 176 million pounds has set a record in team history

Recently, the Echo talked about Liverpool's possible signing of Wilz at a record price, and coupled with signings to other positions, the club's transfer fees paid this summer may exceed £200 million.

Liverpool and Leverkusen reached a transfer fee of £116 million, and will pay £100 million first. This is enough to make Wilz surpass Van Deck and Nunes to become the most expensive signing in Liverpool's history. If Wilz activates all £16m additional terms during Anfield, he will also break the UK transfer fee record - exceeding the £115m paid by Chelsea for Kesedo in the summer of 2023.

Wilz's arrival has brought Liverpool's potential spending this summer to £176 million (including additional clauses), and the Reds have signed Flynnon and goalkeeper Peppa for £29.5 million and £1.5 million from Leverkusen and Puskas Academy respectively.

Meanwhile, Mamadashvili will officially become a Liverpool player this summer, after the two sides reached an agreement with Valencia in August last year. The Reds will pay the Georgian international an initial fee of £25 million, with up to £29 million after additional terms.

Therefore, if all the above additional terms are included, this summer is already the most expensive transfer window in Liverpool's history. The Reds' biggest spending was in the summer of 2018, when they signed Fabinho (£43.7 million), Keita (£52.75 million), Allison (£65 million) and Shaqiri (£13.5 million), totaling £174.95 million.

excludes additional terms, Liverpool's initial expenditure in that summer was £161.55 million, of which Fabinho and Allison's initial expenses were £39.3 million and £56 million, respectively.

Seven years later, the Red Army's initial expenditure on Wilz, Flynnon, Mamadashvili and Page was about £156 million. But this is just the beginning, with Liverpool looking to boost Slott's championship roster, expecting their total spending to exceed £200 million for the first time, setting a new record for the transfer window.

After completing the Wilz deal, the Reds will seek to finalize a transfer to sign Kolkerz from Bournemouth. Liverpool is confident in the Hungarian international and has maintained direct contact with the opponent, but has not yet made a formal offer.

Bornemouth's estimate of Kolkerz was £45 million, and any agreement on the 21-year-old would ensure the Reds broke through the £200 million mark and eventually broke the overall spending record for a single transfer window.

However, Liverpool is not expected to end the signing after signing Kolkerz. They also plan to bring in a new center, with Frankfurt reportedly asking Ekitic for £85m. In addition, the Reds may also look for a new centre-back, while the remaining summer signings will depend on departure.

Arnold and Kelleher have joined Real Madrid and Brentford for £10 million and £18 million respectively, while Nunes is also expected to be sold. Luis Diaz has rejected the offer from Barcelona and admitted to negotiating with other clubs, and his future remains uncertain.

With Chiesa expressing her willingness to return to Italy, Garkepo has attracted Bayern's interest and Jota's future is full of uncertainty, and Liverpool may need to make major adjustments to the offensive line in the summer transfer window, rather than just introducing a new center.

In the centre-back position, Gomez and Konsa both attracted interest from other teams, and Connat's contract entered its final year. If any of the three leaves, although the latter suggests he will stay at Anfield next season, the Reds are expected to need to sign a replacement.

With Liverpool coming to sign Kolkz, Zimikas is expected to leave, and Robertson admits his future is uncertain as he enters the final year of his contract.

In the midfield, although Endo insists that he intends to stay at Anfield, Elliott may choose to leave the team due to long-term marginality. The midfielder, who is currently playing with England's U21 national team, said many times that he is considering his future and has recently admitted that he does not want to "waste his career years", and Wiltz's arrival further lowered his appearance pick in the team.

In addition, Yaros is expected to be loaned, and players such as Dock, Morton and Phillips have also attracted the interest of other teams. Liverpool has responded in the transfer market, signing Flynnon to fill the vacancy after Arnold left the team. At the same time, the arrival of Mamadashvili and Page allowed Kellech to leave the team and Jaros could also be loaned.

Wilz and Kolkz's arrival may have a chain reaction to Elliott and Zimikas and others. If Nunes confirms leaving the team, the Reds need to introduce a new forward, or if a central defender leaves the team, the situation will be similar. If Liverpool does need to introduce a new striker or centre-back this summer, such a player will certainly not be cheap.

Considering that Liverpool's biggest spending in 2018 ultimately helped them win the Champions League that season, the Reds may hope for a similar result this time. At least, that transfer window helped Liverpool become a true Premier League and Champions League contender and laid the foundation for the peak of the Klopp era.

The Reds hope history will repeat itself, and as Wilz becomes the latest big signing, Liverpool is making their biggest transfer investment in history in order to achieve more success under Slott.
