Your biggest and most exciting Liverpool signings
Ahead of Florian Wirtz's imminent arrival at Anfield, we have been asking you about other historic Liverpool are some of the signings you said you were most excited for:Mark: Paul Ince. All through the 90's, the conventional wisdom was that Evans' talented yet fragile team simply needed some experience and bite in midfield. However, the barren years Robbie Keane goes under the radar a bit but he should have been a quality signing! Alberto Aquilani was another who had a big hype and expectation to replace Alonso (but again didn't work out).James: Concerningly, hype and excitement doesn't always lead to a lengthy and successful relationship - Nicolas Anelka, Fernando Morientes and Jari Litmanen come to mind. All three showed moments of brilliance (particularly the latter), but none fulfilled their as for whether Wirtz is the biggest signing in Liverpool's history, you said: Paul: I'm sorry but you will be very hard pressed to find a greater signing in any club's history than a Mr Kenny Dalglish in August 1977 from Virgil was our biggest signing. The team built around him and is Simple - Keegan, Toshack and King Kenny. Florian has targets all there in front of him.

A-League: Daniel Arzani leaves Victory to join Ferencvaros
Socceroos playmaker Daniel Arzani has left Melbourne Victory to join Hungarian champions Ferencvaros. The move marks a return to Europe for 26-year-old Arzani, who after leaving Melbourne City in 2018 to sign as a teenager in 2018 with English Premier League giants Manchester City had loan spells with Celtic (Scotland), Utrecht (Netherlands), AGF (Denmark) and Lommel (Belgium), returned to the A-League in 2022 to join Macarthur FC. Arzani returned to Melbourne the following year to link with the Victory, where he has spent the past two seasons, helping the club to successive A-League grand final appearances. 'My time at Melbourne Victory has been incredibly rewarding,' Arzani said. 'The club has played a key role in my growth both on and off the pitch over the past couple of seasons, allowing me to enjoy my football and do what I do best. 'While I am excited for the next chapter, I will always be grateful for my time at Melbourne Victory and the enormous support I received from the club's members and fans.' Arzani's time at the Victory has also coincided with his return to the national team after an absence of six years. He has scored one goal – against Hungary in June 2018 – in his 10 appearances for the Socceroos. Arzani's move to Ferencvaros, who are coached by Irishman and former Tottenham and Liverpool striker Robbie Keane, could also give him the chance to compete in the UEFA Champions League, with his new club in the competition's second qualifying round. Arzani – who had also been linked with a move to Scottish club Hearts – is the second player in the past two days to leave the Victory, with left-back Kasey Bos also heading to Europe after a signing a four-year-deal with German Bundesliga club Mainz 05 for a deal that will reportedly net the Melbourne club a transfer fee of $880,000.

Arzani links up with ex-Celtic hero after SPFL return links
The 26-year-old, who spent an injury-ravaged year and a half at Parkhead, was linked with a move to Heart of Midlothian earlier this summer. A switch to Tynecastle potentially beckoned for Arzani, with Hearts viewing him as an option to bolster their wide areas. Read more: The Aussie has instead opted to sign for Hungarian champions Ferencvaros, who are managed by ex-Celtic hero Robbie Keane. Keane spent half a season on loan in Glasgow's east end, scoring 16 goals and providing three assists in 19 appearances. He was appointed boss of Ferencvaros at the beginning of this year and soon guided them to Hungarian top-flight glory last season. Arzani, his latest summer signing, played 29 times for Melbourne Victory last term, setting up six goals and netting three. In other news, Ange Postecoglou is reportedly being lined up for a shock return to management in Saudi Arabia. The ex-Celtic boss was sacked by Tottenham Hotspur last week despite leading the North London club to Europa League glory. Now, he is being 'lined up' to replace highly-rated young German coach Matthias Jaissle at Saudi Pro League outfit Al Ahli, claims The Telegraph. The former Parkhead gaffer already has vast experience of managing in Asia, having led Yokohama F. Marinos to the J. League title and Australia to Asian Cup glory.
