Here's all the latest Liverpool stories from Sunday's papers and across the web...

Money in the bank

Liverpool will bank a staggering £75.5million from Luis Suarez’s move to Barcelona.

Anfield chief executive Ian Ayre has struck a deal that will see Barca pay the full terms of the buy-out clause in the bite-ban striker's contract.

Liverpool were hoping to recruit Alexis Sanchez as a makeweight in the deal.

The Chile winger is reluctant to leave Spain but if he is forced out does not want to move to Anfield. He would prefer to join Arsenal.

Last night, the Merseysiders – who tabled a £34m bid for Sanchez just before the World Cup when it first became obvious that Suarez wanted to leave – were still refusing to give up on landing the 25-year-old.

But if Sanchez cannot be persuaded to join Liverpool inside the next 48 hours then they will take the cash deal.

More money in the bank

Martin Skrtel is being lured to Turkey by a staggering offer from Galatasaray, writes Neil Moxley in the Sunday People..

The Liverpool star, who has two years left on his Anfield contract, has been told his salary will be a minimum £100,000 a week.

Skrtel was one of the cornerstones of Brendan Rodgers' defence last season. And now the stage is set for a tug-of-war between the two clubs over a fee as Liverpool will be reluctant to release him.

The 29-year-old is not unhappy on Merseyside but he will be minded that several big-name stars such as Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder have already moved out to Istanbul.

If he goes, the Slovakian centre-half will be joined in the Reds' departure lounge by Iago Aspas, who is set to join Sevilla for around half the £7.2million he cost just a year ago.

Brendan Rodgers hopes to beat Borussia Dortmund to the signing of Belgium’s World Cup striker Divock Origi by agreeing to loan him back to Lille, writes Neil Moxley in the Sunday People.

The Germans have emerged as serious rivals to the Reds as both clubs look to tie up an £11million deal.

Dortmund chief Jurgen Klopp has spent £25m ­beefing up his strike force already this summer, adding Ciro Immobile from Torino and Adrian Ramos from Hertha Berlin to his squad. But he is in the market for a pacy forward and it appears Origi would favour a move to Germany rather than Liverpool.

So Rodgers has tried to change the Lille forward’s mind by offering him a season-long loan back to the French club.

Origi has been a revelation in Brazil, helping Belgium through to Saturday’s World Cup quarter-final defeat by Argentina.

Cole's the goal

Liverpool could make an 11th hour bid to sign Ashley Cole.

The now former England international looked set for a switch to Serie A side Roma with the club hoping to complete the deal next week.

But the Mail on Sunday reports that the Reds are readying a late offer for the 33-year-old.

Varying reports suggest Cole could earn as much as £6million-per-year in Italy but the lure of one last crack at the Premier League may prove a clincher.

Super Mario

Reports in Italy suggest Liverpool could emerge as late rivals to Arsenal in the race to sign Mario Balotelli.

With one bad boy striker on his way out it seems another could be on his way in to take his place.

Tuttosport indicate that Anfield could be the perfect destination for the Italian striker and suggest that his proposed move to the Gunners has hit the rocks.

Balotelli looks all but certain to leave AC Milan this summer and is said to prefer a move back to the Premier League.
