Liverpool completed their transfer business early, thus JURGEN KLOPP will wait for Jude Bellingham.
On Thursday, the Reds agreed to pay £6.5 million for Aberdeen right-back Calvin Ramsay.
Liverpool will pay £4 million upfront, with an additional £2.5 million in add-ons based on appearances and trophy success for the 18-year-old defender.
Ramsay, a Scotland Under-21 international, is set to sign a five-year deal and is expected to go to Merseyside this weekend.
After capturing Benfica striker Darwin Nunez for a potential sum of £85 million and Fabio Carvalho, a 19-year-old midfielder from Fulham for £7.7 million, Ramsay will be Klopp's third signing of the window.
That'll be the end of the window, with Klopp certain that his reinforced squad will be able to compete on all four fronts next season.
The Reds were rumored to be interested in bringing in a new frontline midfielder, but that has been put off until next season.
Klopp is keen on England prodigy Bellingham, but Dortmund will not allow another big-name player to leave after Erling Haaland's move to Manchester City.
With Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita entering the final year of their present contracts, next summer is likely to be the time for Liverpool to bolster that department.
Bayern Munich has made a third proposal for Sadio Mane, while Monaco and Lyon are interested in Takumi Minamino.
Klopp, on the other hand, is pleased that his new acquisitions will compensate for the losses.
Ramsay has a bright future ahead of him, having made his name in Scotland's Premier League last season.
The full-back made 33 games and was named Scottish Football Writers' Young Player of the Year for his outstanding performances.
Ramsay's cost is higher than the previous high for Scott McKenna, who was sold to Nottingham Forest for £3 million in September 2020.
