We look at Liverpool's odds of signing their top transfer targets after qualifying for the Champions League group stages.
Jurgen Klopp admitted Liverpool's hopes of making more summer transfers may improve after they booked their place in the Champions League group stages by beating Hoffenheim 6-3 on aggregate on Wednesday night.
And with most of the window dominated by their refusal to accept any of Barcelona's three bids for Philippe Coutinho - the last worth a reported £114million - the star playmaker may now be more willing to remain at Anfield. Sky Bet make him 1/2 to do so and 6/4 to end up at the Nou Camp.
Klopp said: "It (the Champions League) is a big influence on the transfer market, especially if you do it more often. You talk them (players), they say, 'If you play Champions League it would be really interesting'. Or even if you try to extend a contract with the player in the squad and they say, 'I want to play Champions League'. I always think, 'WTF, it's your job to do it with us!'
"Do it with us together - that is what this team did and I am so happy about it. Fourteen months, hard work, and we did it. Nice."
So, let's take a look at some of the players Liverpool have been linked with and their Sky Bet odds of signing them.
