Liverpool’s €200M Summer Overhaul Begins Under Arne Slot
Liverpool are showing no signs of slowing down in the transfer market, with a major summer rebuild now fully underway under new manager Arne Slot.
The first move is nearly done: a €35 million deal for Dutch right-back Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen is on the verge of completion, marking Slot’s first signing since taking charge.
But this is just the beginning.
According to sources close to the club, Liverpool are preparing a massive £170 million spree for three more priority targets as Slot looks to reshape the squad ahead of the 2025/26 season.
🔴 Midfield Priority: Teun Koopmeiners
Slot wants to reunite with fellow Dutchman Teun Koopmeiners from Atalanta. Valued at around £50 million, the deep-lying playmaker is admired for his tactical intelligence, composure, and ability to dictate tempo—an ideal complement to Mac Allister and Szoboszlai.
🔴 Attacking Depth: Johan Bakayoko
In the forward line, PSV’s Johan Bakayoko is firmly on the radar. The Belgian winger is expected to cost over £40 million, and would bring flair, directness, and depth to Liverpool’s attacking options.
🔴 Defensive Reinforcement: Gonçalo Inácio
At the back, Sporting CP’s Gonçalo Inácio is a top target. The left-footed centre-back, known for his calmness on the ball and defensive awareness, has a £51 million release clause. He fits Slot’s system perfectly as a modern, progressive defender.
If all deals are completed—including Frimpong’s—Liverpool’s total summer spending could exceed £200 million.
This aggressive recruitment drive reflects the club’s full backing of Slot and a clear vision: to challenge for the Premier League title and return to the Champions League with a refreshed, high-energy squad.
A bold new chapter is beginning at Anfield—and Liverpool aren’t waiting around.
