Which are the most credible Liverpool transfer rumours right now?

Sky Sports has teamed up with Football Whispers to bring you the latest transfer talk as Jurgen Klopp looks to strengthen his squad ahead of the new Premier League season.

Football Whispers have developed a unique algorithm to take all of the transfer rumours from across the globe and calculate the likelihood of them happening.

They track transfer stories and give them a score out of 5.0, with the hottest Whispers closest to 5.0.

Here are the current top three:

1. Lucas Moura (PSG) - 4.0

Lucas is still being discussed as a possible transfer to Liverpool and his rating in the Football Whispers charts has not dipped below 3.0 in June.

The 23-year-old Brazil winger scored an impressive 13 goals in 32 starts for PSG in all competitions last season and continues to be linked with a move to Anfield. 

2. Mahmoud Dahoud (Borussia Monchengladbach) - 3.5

Several British newspapers have linked Germany U21 international Dahoud with a move to Anfield in the past.

Dahoud is an energetic all-round midfield talent, combining a tireless work rate and incisive movement with a broad range of passing and tenacious ball-winning.

Dahoud is under contract until 2018 and Gladbach are adamant that he is going nowhere. Their sporting director, Max Eberl, said earlier this year: "Dahoud is not for sale. We are a hungry club and we need every good player."

3. Hector Herrera (Porto) - 3.2

Mexican holding midfielder Herrera is back from international duty at the Copa America, and while Napoli and Porto have reportedly been trying to finalise a deal in the past couple of weeks, Liverpool could still wade in.
