Liverpool Kick Off Squad Overhaul Ahead of New Season Under Arne Slot
Liverpool have begun preparing for the upcoming season by making early moves to bolster their squad, with newly appointed head coach Arne Slot already shaping plans for a strong campaign.
After clinching the Premier League title in impressive fashion—especially notable given Slot’s limited spending—the club is now shifting focus to the Champions League.
Determined to carry their domestic form into Europe, Liverpool have pinpointed several key transfer targets.
A major deal appears close, with Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong set to arrive as a potential long-term replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Reds are also seeking to strengthen the left side of their defense.
Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg reports that Liverpool have initiated discussions with Bournemouth over a move for Hungarian left-back Milos Kerkez.
The club is intensifying efforts to sign the 20-year-old, who has impressed during a standout season under manager Andoni Iraola. His combination of offensive drive and defensive solidity makes him a strong fit for Slot’s tactical approach and a possible successor to Andy Robertson.
Liverpool are also evaluating their attacking options, with Brighton forward João Pedro emerging as a potential target to replace Darwin Núñez.
With several key signings under consideration, the club appears set for a busy transfer window as they look to build on their recent achievements and push for success in Europe next season.
