Arne Slot has cast his eye over his Liverpool once again in their penultimate friendly against Manchester United in the United States.
But the new Anfield head coach may soon find that a Reds target loved by Jurgen Klopp is suddenly being talked up as an option for Erik ten Hag and their great rivals at Old Trafford - although most of the Premier League appears to be linked with Italy wide man Federico Chiesa.
Elsewhere the new boss has made his plans for Darwin Nunez loud and clear having already made contact with the forward once his Copa America campaign with Uruguay came to a controversial and dramatic end.
Here are three of the big stories worth keeping tabs on from in and around Anfield this weekend.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot has already contacted Darwin Nunez to tell the Uruguayan striker that he wants him to be the frontman for his Reds’ revolution.
Slot is aware that the £85million forward became disillusioned under Jurgen Klopp last season after being asked to fill the huge void left by the German’s departure from Anfield.
One of his first acts after arriving on Merseyside was to phone Nunez during his preparations for Copa America to assure him that he has identified him as a player capable of playing a significant role.
The 25-year-old’s selfless running will be crucial to Slot’s plan to press from the front - and Nunez was delighted to hear that his new boss recognises what he can bring to the Liverpool team.
He has been given time off to recover from a bitter Copa America experience which ended with him leaping into the stand to swap punches with Colombian fans after a disappointing semi-final defeat.
Tottenham will have to get creative if they wish to formalise interest in the former Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke.
That is because the Cherries are insistent the 26-year-old striker will only depart the Vitality Stadium this summer if his £65million release clause, which can reportedly only be triggered by certain clubs, is matched.
It's currently considered unlikely that Tottenham will put club-record cash on the table but if they're serious about landing Solanke, they could seek to test Bournemouth's resolve by including players in a potential swap deal package that helps them get close to the eye-watering figure.England international Solanke struck 19 Premier League goals last season and has also been tracked by his former club Chelsea.Andoni Iraola's side have always been mindful that Solanke would be the subject of interest this summer on the back of such an impressive campaign that saw him find the net 21 times in all competitions.
United and Arsenal are among a host of clubs interested in Juventus star Federico Chiesa - a player who Jurgen Klopp had eyed as his ideal Mohamed Salah replacement at Liverpool .
Italian trickster Chiesa has been linked with a move to England for some time. He caught the eye during Italy's Euro 2020 triumph, proving a handful for every defender he faced.
