Liverpool have stunned their Premier League rivals with their moves this summer, but the club are now keen to chase a dream signing that will really set the cat amongst the pigeons ahead of the start of the new 2025/26 campaign in a few months.
The Merseyside giants have shown real intent in the ongoing transfer window, and their pursuit of Florian Wirtz is a sign of the ambition they have this summer.
As things stand, Liverpool would have to fork out a Premier League record fee to take the German midfielder to Anfield, but that will not thwart their spending power.
Despite their pursuit of Wirtz, Liverpool are still plotting to sign another dream target, which will take their spending to unprecedented levels and shock their Premier League rivals this summer.

Liverpool still want to chase a dream signing that will be a real nightmare for their Premier League rivals
Alexander Isak has been the dream target for Liverpool all summer, but Newcastle United are in no mood to let him join one of their biggest Premier League rivals.
There are suggestions Liverpool are considering alternative targets, but Graeme Bailey has claimed that the Reds would still want to try for the Swede this summer.
A number of other strikers are being assessed, but the Newcastle star is still the forward the Reds would prefer to sign in the ongoing transfer window.
“Liverpool still want a striker – we previously revealed that Liverpool were in for a ‘huge summer’ and that is how it is panning out”, Bailey told TBR Football.
“They have signed Frimpong and hope to follow that up shortly with Kerkez and Wirtz in a British record deal – but they are not finished.
“They want another central defender, but a striker remains a priority, especially if, as expected, Nunez moves on, and I am told his people are holding talks with various clubs.
“Jota is also one of those who they won’t stop from leaving, and those exits will help pave the way for a new frontman.
“Isak is still one they would love, he is the dream signing striker-wise, and his contract talks are being monitored at Anfield.
“We know they are doing work on others, including Hugo Ekitike, whilst the names of Victor Osimhen, Benjamin Sesko, and Viktor Gyokeres have been discussed.
“There are plenty of options available to Liverpool – don’t be surprised if it is a really big name that comes in.”
