Liverpool’s new boss Arne Slot expects to bolster his squad this summer, saying he’d be surprised if no signings are made.
Slot replaced Jurgen Klopp in June and, with Richard Hughes as the new sporting director, the club is set for a new chapter, likely involving new recruits.
Despite Slot and Hughes arriving, the Reds are yet to sign a single player during the current transfer window.
This lack of business is in notable contrast to previous windows, with the Reds having forked out a whopping £150m on players last summer alone.

He said:
“If you inherit a team that’s really good, it’s not so easy to find players who are even higher especially because those ones need to be available as well.
Richard more than me is working really hard on that. He keeps me updated on that.”
“If there’s any news on that we will come to you.
We already have a good team, but it would be a surprise for all of us if we don’t bring any player in.
That will probably happen in the end. For now, we’re just waiting for the players to come back and the right ones to sign.”
Liverpool have been heavily linked with a number of players in recent weeks, including Real Sociedad’s Takefusa Kubo, free agent Adrien Rabiot and talented RB Leipzig defender Mohamed Simakan.
