Last year Liverpool spent around £450m on new players.
It was to no great effect as the defending Premier League champions slumped from first to fifth place.
The Reds struggled to get a return out of top signings like Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz. Isak, 26, cost a British record £125m from Newcastle but endured a nightmare campaign.
Wirtz on the other hand cost a fee that could reach £116m from Bayer Leverkusen and his Anfield career is still waiting to catch light.
Isak broke his leg in December and by the end of the season had scored only four goals. Sporting director Richard Hughes will be expecting a lot more bang for his book - especially if the Sweden striker sticks around for the duration of his six-year contract.
