Good morning and welcome to the ECHO's Boxing Day Liverpool transfer blog.
While the focus will be largely on the football today - the Reds are in action against Burnley at Turf Moor - now we're the other side of Christmas the January transfer window is edging closer and closer into view. That means rumours are emerging at a quicker rate over players Jurgen Klopp could potentially bring in mid-season.
A defender is reported to be on Liverpool's radar, although that looks unlikely to be Piero Hincapie. The Bayer Leverkusen centre-back has been linked with a move to Merseyside, although Bayer Leverkusen have made it clear they won't be selling anyone in January as they continue their title push.
Elsewhere, the former Reds sporting director Julian Ward has been linked with a move to Manchester United, as they seek to revamp their off-the-pitch setup after investment from Jim Ratcliffe.
