Richard Hughes is working on a double transfer for Liverpool according to Fabrizio Romano.
The Reds' sporting director is not resting on his laurels. As well as trying to get a deal over the line for Alexander Isak, Hughes is also trying to bring in two more recruits at least.

This is after a summer of unprecedented change and spending. Liverpool have broken their club record to sign Florian Wirtz, and paid hefty sums to bring in Hugo Ekitike and Milos Kerkez.
But that investment is not enough in order to replace some of the club's departed stars. Liverpool need to provide depth in the attacking and defensive areas.
Particularly at centre-back, where currently Arne Slot has just three senior options to choose from, one of them is injured in Joe Gomez.
Hughes still has just less than three weeks to get deals over the line and according to Romano he's currently working on a double transfer that could be mega business from him yet again.
Given Liverpool's depth in the centre-back department, they probably need not just one but two new arrivals this summer. They were already a man short last season, and that's before Jarell Quansah departed for pastures new.
So there is a need here to improve that department and Hughes is working on what could be a mega double deal according to Fabrizio Romano.
Posting on his X account, Romano confirmed that Liverpool are working on a deal to sign both Marc Guehi and Giovanni Leoni.
While previously others have suggested it's one or the other, Romano here has clarified that Liverpool want to sign both, which means there is the potential for an incredible double deal.
