And, according to Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg, the Reds – six-time winners of Europe’s top table – are looking to be proactive in their business this summer. Not only are they eyeing reinforcements, but a total of five players are at risk.

Arne Slot has made it perfectly clear what he wants. Now it's up to Liverpool to deliver. Liverpool haven't actually given Arne Slot much. The Dutchman arrived in the summer but inherited Jurgen Klopp's squad almost entirely.

Arne Slot’s success has been both surprising and refreshing. The club’s identity under Klopp was deeply entrenched, and many feared a post-Klopp decline. However, Slot has managed to retain Liverpool’s high-intensity philosophy while introducing a more structured and measured tactical approach.
