Liverpool FC is gearing up for a pivotal summer transfer window, with new manager Arne Slot identifying six top targets to reshape the squad ahead of the 2025–26 campaign.
With key players like Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah potentially on their way out, the focus is firmly on reinforcing both defense and attack.
Defensive Targets:
1. Jeremie Frimpong (Bayer Leverkusen): A dynamic right-back viewed as the ideal successor to Alexander-Arnold. His attacking flair and £29.7m release clause make him a smart investment.
2. Milos Kerkez (Bournemouth): At 21, he’s shown great promise at left-back. Slot sees him as a perfect long-term fit.
3. Dean Huijsen (Bournemouth): A rising star in central defense. Liverpool is willing to meet his £50m clause to secure his future.
4. Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace): A seasoned Premier League defender seen as a potential heir to Virgil van Dijk.
Attacking Targets:
5. Alexander Isak (Newcastle): A clinical striker with Premier League pedigree who could boost Liverpool’s frontline.
6. Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford): A possible Salah replacement, thanks to his speed, creativity, and top-flight experience.
Slot’s recruitment strategy emphasizes balance—combining youth with proven talent—to ensure Liverpool remains a force in England and Europe.
