Liverpool's summer spending spree might not be over yet.

The Reds' £15m bid for Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been accepted by Borussia Dortmund, according to the Independent, and if the move goes through it could take their summer splurge past the £90m mark. The Armenian midfielder joined Dortmund from Shaktar Donetsk in 2013, and in the past two seasons he scored 24 goals and provided 20 assists in 94 appearances - not bad. He has started this season strongly, scoring twice in the Bundesliga opener against Borussia Monchengladbach and netting the winner in the German team's thrilling 4-3 Europa League comeback win over Odd Ballklubb. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DD0XzjyhtcM The Indy claim Liverpool may face competition from Juventus, however. The Italian club have also spent big this summer, with new arrival Alex Sandro taking their outlay to nearly £70m.
