Liverpool Begin Squad Reinforcements Ahead of New Season Under Arne Slot
Liverpool have wasted no time in planning for the upcoming campaign, with new head coach Arne Slot already shaping a refreshed and competitive squad to build on this season’s Premier League title triumph.
After guiding the Reds to domestic glory with minimal spending, Slot now turns his focus toward a deep Champions League run. Strengthening key areas of the squad is high on the agenda, and several moves are already in progress.
One of the most notable developments is the expected arrival of Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, viewed as a long-term successor to Trent Alexander-Arnold. On the opposite flank, Liverpool have stepped up their pursuit of Milos Kerkez, Bournemouth’s promising Hungarian left-back. Talks have been opened, according to Sky Sports’ Florian Plettenberg, with Kerkez seen as a potential heir to Andy Robertson.
Kerkez, 20, enjoyed a standout season under Andoni Iraola, drawing attention for his blend of attacking energy and defensive composure—qualities well-suited to Slot’s tactical style.
Up front, Liverpool are also exploring options to reshape the attack. Reports have linked Brighton’s João Pedro with a possible move to Anfield, with the Brazilian seen as a stylistic alternative—or even a replacement—for Darwin Núñez.
With reinforcements across the backline and frontline under consideration, Liverpool appear poised for an ambitious summer rebuild, aiming not just to defend their Premier League crown but to reassert themselves among Europe’s elite.
