Liverpool needed a new goalkeeper in 1992 and manager Graeme Souness was willing to break a transfer record to get his man.
On this day that 30 years ago, Liverpool completed the signing of David James from Watford. James was an England Under-21 international and tipped to be one of the brightest talents in the country.
Souness wanted him, but needed to fend off plenty of interest to get him. Chelsea were interested, as were club legend and former manager Kenny Dalglish at Blackburn Rovers.
