Liverpool could unleash a formidable new starting XI next season if Arne Slot pulls off his ideal summer transfer window, following a record-breaking title-winning campaign.
After sealing their 20th top-flight title and a dominant 5-1 victory over Spurs, Slot is reportedly planning major upgrades to an already lethal squad. With Trent Alexander-Arnold confirming his departure, Liverpool have already agreed to bring in Giorgi Mamardashvili, and are in talks for several high-profile names.
Here’s how the ‘dream’ XI could line up after Slot’s transfer ambitions are realised:
Starting XI (4-3-3):
GK: Alisson Becker
DEF: Jeremie Frimpong, Ibrahima Konaté, Virgil van Dijk, Milos Kerkez
MID: Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister
ATT: Mohamed Salah, Julian Alvarez, Cody Gakpo
Key Details:
Frimpong would replace Trent at right-back, bringing speed and vertical threat.
Milos Kerkez adds youthful aggression at left-back.
Julian Alvarez, frustrated by limited minutes at City, is viewed as a dream acquisition for Slot’s forward line.
Mamardashvili will arrive as goalkeeping reinforcement amid Alisson/Kelleher uncertainty.
What Slot Said:
> “We have just won the league, we were so competitive vs PSG, it is not easy to find better players to improve us.”
But improve they will. Liverpool’s ambitions stretch beyond domestic dominance — with this new XI, Europe is the next battlefield.
