Liverpool conjured up telling late-season form to get into the Champions League ahead of 2021/2022 - but how much of a bearing will that have on their recruitment drive?
After completing that turnaround and sealing a third-place finish ahead of Chelsea and Leicester City, the Reds are set to join both Manchester clubs and Thomas Tuchel's newly-crowned European champions in the top competition.
As elite sides across Europe turn their attentions to the summer window, Jurgen Klopp and key figures responsible for transfer at Anfield have been tentatively linked with a number of high-profile moves.
They include Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe and Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.
However, neither of those two or other potential signings will come cheaply; even in a transfer market which is set to be heavily shaped by financial implications of the Covid-19 pandemic.
SkyBet and other bookies continue to price-up the chances of those and other such transfers.
While the odds should be taken with a pinch of salt, here are five players who the bookies suggest Liverpool may be in contention to sign by September 3.
Kylian Mbappe (Paris Saint-Germain)
Liverpool - 2/1
Real Madrid - 9/4
Manchester City - 16/1
Aaron Ramsey (Juventus)
Liverpool - 5/2

Raphinha (Leeds United)
