With the summer transfer window in full swing, the Liverpool ECHO’s LFC correspondent Paul Gorst talks Gini Wijnaldum, Thiago Alcantara and Lionel Messi.

Joining Matt Addison, we take a look into the Reds’ summer transfer policy with Kostas Tsimikas so far Jurgen Klopp’s only first team signing since becoming Premier League champions.

Matt and Paul talk through central defensive options including Brighton's Ben White, plus youngsters Billy Koumetio and Sepp van den Berg.

Plus we have the latest on Wijnaldum’s contract situation, how that could be linked to Bayern Munich’s Thiago Alcantara and what about Man City’s reported interest in Lionel Messi?
