Premier League title-holders Liverpool broke the British transfer record TWICE - spending £116m on Florian Wirtz and committing to a £125m deal for Alexander Isak.

But even more top signings were recruited by Hughes and head coach Arne Slot - with Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Hugo Ekitike and Giorgi Mamaradashvili among the headline arrivals.

Liverpool's big changes in the transfer market

It leaves Liverpool in a very strong position to defend their Premier League title - with Slot having a much deeper squad than the one that claimed the 20th top-flight victory in the Reds’ history.

There were several departures too; Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz have left the frontline while others including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Caoimhin Kelleher, Jarell Quansah, Harvey Elliott, Tyler Morton, Ben Doak and Nat Phillips have also walked through the exit door.

Mac Allister believes in Liverpool new boys' quality

The squad is now in state of flux - as Slot attempts to pick the best lineup possible on a consistent basis and bed in the new signings as quickly as possible.

The transfer blueprint has already won the seal of approval from at least one title-winner in the shape of Alexis Mac Allister.

Asked by TNT Sports where this was the best transfer window of all time - the Argentina player was in NO DOUBT that Hughes had completed deals for quality acquisitions.
