He's beaten the likes of Bayern Munich and Manchester City to the signing of Florian Wirtz. Came out on top of the race for Milos Kerkez, and Hugo Ekitike, who was the subject of interest from Newcastle, Chelsea and Manchester United.
It's quite clear that Liverpool is a very attractive destination at the moment. It's pretty much the destination when it comes to players being on the lookout for a move.
Right now, that's being proven with the pursuit of Alexander Isak, who also looks to be keen on joining Liverpool and no one else.
But these high-profile signings are not the only success story of the summer. Liverpool actually secured the signature of a promising young centre-back as well.

Earlier this summer, Wellity Lucky had an expiring contract at Liverpool. The club's exciting young defender became a free agent at the end of June, when his deal expired.
As a result, he was the subject of interest from a host of high-profile clubs. Anfield Watch can exclusively reveal his included Manchester City, Arsenal, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
But despite the interest and offers from elsewhere in the end, Liverpool managed to persuade Lucky to stay at the club and sign a new deal.
The club's coaching staff rate him very highly and see him as an ideal fit for Arne Slot's style of play, especially due to his ball playing ability.
