Transfers are currently not a top priority for Liverpool. The sole priority for the upcoming hours is to triumph over Manchester City.
Following that, focus shifts towards the second match of the Europa League encounter against Sparta Prague. The outcome is nearly certain following a significant victory on an opposing team’s turf, but a visit to Old Trafford to compete against Manchester United in the FA Cup is imminent.
The international break will provide an opportunity to assess the current situation and evaluate items that are happening out of the public eye. However, Liverpool still has important overarching problems to address. They are on the verge of finalizing the reappointment of Michael Edwards, with Richard Hughes serving as the subordinate sporting director. Subsequently, it will be necessary to commence the search for a suitable replacement for Jürgen Klopp.
Therefore, transfer planning is currently receiving less attention or priority. However, despite the absence of its typical framework, FSG will still be formulating first strategies, cautious of being unprepared throughout the summer. A few squad needs are readily apparent, and preliminary preparations can commence promptly.
It appears evident that Joël Matip and Thiago Alcântara will depart once their contracts expire. Liverpool may now commence the search for substitutes for both positions, as reports today suggest that they are on the market for a new defender and midfielder. The following is the Liverpool.com assessment of the transfer rumors surrounding the Reds that have surfaced today.
