I have a feeling Mahrez will be signed in next week and Lemar in the summer

Like I said, Liverpool still have an issue in terms of goalkeeper. You take Lemar or Mahrez now, knowing that Naby Keita will also join. But you have the money from Coutinho, besides whatever money was already set aside for any transfers, and you look at getting Jan Oblak or Donnaruma. That would be smart business. Next season, you can maybe try and find a quality striker as well

I think you got it wrong there... Pool will use 50m to sign Fraser Forster from Southampton and another 30m for Shane Long to replace Coutinho and then buy more midfielders cos the defence is now sorted

Not true... That's not how the transfer market works... Liverpool would have had no idea how much Barca would be willing to pay, or if they would pay it... So You can't sign players with partially spent money, on what you think might or might not happen..

Liverpool have a transfer kitty like any other club. The Coutinho money would just be money that they would now welcome back into the coffers, and that would be available if Kopp needs it.

That was still Suarez money that was left methinks, runout has it we might be interested to get him back.
He's legs and knee is gone since he's last injury and lost a lot of pace and the dribbling too. Barca wants rid
 
beIN sports reporting mahrez agreed at 48mil. He's suppose to be having his medical tomorrow. Not sure how reliable beIN is but seems pretty legit.

He's scored 7 goals for them in the last 8 matches. Some of them crucial matches. They may be rethinking that

Yep, he has been injured as well, so hasn't really been up to speed, and struggled to find the net. But has started to score again.
 
REAL FAILED IN LATE COUTINHO BID
Real Madrid failed in an eleventh-hour bid to hijack Phillipe Coutinho's move from Liverpool to Barcelona, according to a report in Mundo Deportivo on Sunday.

Real reportedly were ready to pay the Reds £177m for the Brazilian, eclipsing the £143m deal that Barca are expected to complete for the player on Monday, but Coutinho's determination to join the Catalan side put paid to any possible derailment.

Just for interest on Coutinho transfer

Just wondering, although not relevant to the fee or anything, is the fee subject to any VAT or is that taken after the agreed fee?


[http://www]{Ed002's Note - A good question and it might be an apt time to explain again about the cost of transfers (excluding wages). What is paid by the buying club would typically include:
(a) Transfer fee - the big number.
(b) Any levy applied by the local FA – 5% for the EPL.
(c) Tax due on the transfer fee – typically this will be VAT (at varying rates across Europe) some or all of which should be reclaimable.
(d) Agent fees – this may be to one or more agents.*
(e) Tax due on the agent fees – typically this is VAT at the local rate where the agent bills from – it is not reclaimable.
(f) Intermediary fees – this may be to one or more sponging leeches (what do you mean you have a super agent?) .
(g) Tax due on the Intermediary fees – typically this is VAT at the local rate where the Intermediary bills from – it is not reclaimable.
(h) Signing on fee to the player (possibly including non-reclaimable VAT if the player is VAT registered).
(i) Legal fees.
(j) VAT on legal fees which is reclaimable.
(k) Moving/relocation costs for the player.
(l) VAT on moving/relocation costs which is reclaimable.
(m) Paying up insurance costs to the selling club (sometimes waived).

What is paid by the selling club would typically include:
(a) If the player is under 24 and moving between different football associations, a Solidarity contribution paid to his previous clubs responsible for his training - this is 5% of the transfer fee received (apportioned 5% of the contribution for each year from the season of his 12th birthday to the season of his 15th birthday and 10% of the contribution for each season from his 16th to 23rd birthdays).
(b) If the player moves to a higher category club (all clubs being categorised 1 to 4) then Training Compensation is due for the period of age 12 to 21. Compensation is due to all clubs when the player turns from amateur to professional and thereafter only when he moves from his final training club to another club. The initial training compensation is levied at the training costs associated with Category 4 clubs. The subsequent figure is agreed between the sides or tribuneral if necessary.
(c) Any monies owed to the player if he did not request a transfer – again this is 5% of the transfer fee received.
(d) Any monies owed to the player in terms of his contract (typically outstanding owed wages (not future wages) and bonuses).
(e) Any money contractually due to a previous club as the result of a sell-on clause.}
