The second signing for Reds, Slot looks to bolster Premier League winning squad

Liverpool have completed their second signing of the summer as they look to bolster their squad which won the Premier League.

Arne Slot's side romped to Premier League victory and have been quick to add extra depth as they look to defend their title and challenge in Europe.

They have now signed 20-year-old goalkeeper Armin Pecsi from Hungarian side Puskas Akademia in a deal which could reach £1.5million.

Pecsi was nominated for the 2025 Golden Boy award and has represented Hungary at Under-21 level.

He played 36 times in all competitions last season for his Puskas Akademia as they finished in second behind Robbie Keane's Ferencvaros.

The goalkeeper also appeared in the Europa Conference League, before being knocked out by semi-finalists Fiorentina.

He completed a medical at Liverpool's AXA Training Centre and will join Slot's goalkeeping ranks just days after Caoimhin Kelleher departed to Brentford in an £18m deal.

Last week, Liverpool scooped Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen to complete their first transfer of the window.

The club activated his £29.5m release clause and the right wing back penned a five-year contract at Anfield after completing his medical last month.

His challenge is to fill the boots of Trent Alexander-Arnold. But Frimpong's record speaks glowingly of his potential. The 24-year-old has scored 28 goals in the last three seasons and assisted a further 35.

The Reds are also hoping to wrap up a deal for German playmaker Florian Wirtz.

The 22-year-old, also of Leverkusen, is regarded as one of Europe's hottest talents.

A deal between the two clubs is reportedly closed to being agreed, with the playmaker set to sign a five-year contract, where he is expected to earn up to £18.5million-a-year.

Liverpool remain in negotiations with Bayer Leverkusen over a price for Wirtz and while talks are ongoing, an agreement is considered certain, according to Bild.

Leverkusen want £120million and Liverpool have offered £109m but Wirtz has made it clear he wants the move.

Wirtz looks set to complete his medical next week and will go on holiday before linking up with the squad for pre-season in July.

The German star has been convinced by Arne Slot's clear plan of where he will play in Liverpool's set-up as a No 10.

And on Wednesday, Wirtz appeared to nod when asked by MailSport if he was 'excited for Liverpool' after Germany's Nations League defeat by Portugal.

If Liverpool accept Bayer's demands, Wirtz would become the most expensive signing in British football, overtaking the £115m Chelsea paid Brighton for Moises Caicedo.

Slot's side are also in talks with Bournemouth for the highly-rated £40m left-back Milos Kerkez.
