Liverpool are being tipped to sign several players before the summer transfer window closes. The Reds are yet to make their first new addition to their squad since the window opened back in June but time is running out for that to change.

Premier League clubs have until August 30 to complete their business, meaning Liverpool do not have much time remaining. It was expected that Martin Zubimendi would be the first signing of the Arne Slot era, but the midfielder opted to remain at Real Sociedad instead.

Now reports are speculating that Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili could be Liverpool's first signing of the summer. It has been widely reported that a deal is close to being agreed for Mamardashvili to sign for the Reds.

It has been suggested that the deal will be worth €35million (£30million), which is close to Mamardashvili being a new Liverpool player. However, reports have also said the 23-year-old would spend the season on loan at Valencia.

Even though it seems that Mamardashvili could be the first Liverpool signing of the summer, more could walk through the door. Sky Bet have compiled odds on who could move to Anfield before the transfer window closes next Friday.

Anthony Gordon - 5/6

Liverpool agreed a £75million with Newcastle to sign Anthony Gordon in June only for the move to fall through. Since then, rumours have swirled over whether the Reds will return to the negotiation table to try and sign the former Everton star once again.

Jarrad Branthwaite - 10/11

Liverpool's chances of signing Jarrad Branthwaite seemingly increased after odds from the bookmakers suddenly changed earlier this week. However, the ECHO understands that there has been zero contact between with the Reds and Everton over signing the defender this summer.

Ollie Watkins - 5/1

Liverpool have been mentioned as the 'favourite' to sign Ollie Watkins in the latest betting. However, the striker signed a new contract with Aston Villa last October and the Reds already have Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota so a move before the window closes seems somewhat unlikely.

Bryan Mbeumo - 6/1

Liverpool were tentatively linked with signing Bryan Mbeumo earlier in the year but the rumours have quietened down significantly in recent months. Brentford would likely demand a sizable fee to let one of their star forwards leave the club this summer.

Marc Guehi - 7/1

Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi has been heavily linked with Liverpool this summer. However, the England international has always seemed more likely to join Newcastle than the Reds if he was to leave Selhurst Park.

Victor Gyokeres - 9/1

Liverpool were linked with a move for Victor Gyokeres earlier in the summer, albeit the rumours were tentative, to say the least. Given the Reds' current options at striker, a move for the Sporting Lisbon star seems unlikely as the odds reflect.
