The Caicedo deal with Chelsea included an initial £100 million payment, with additional clauses potentially increasing the total to £115 million.Liverpool's previous record signing was Darwin Nunez in 2022, though the club hasn't paid the full £85 million as certain performance-based conditions haven't been met.
