It’s a new era that begins on the banks of the Mersey. Jürgen Klopp has ended a 9-year adventure at the helm of the Reds, putting the club back on the front of the stage in England, but also in Europe, with a Champions League title and two lost finals. Arne Slot has taken over, but for the moment, the management has not brought him any new players.
Of course, there have been no major departures, except for Joel Matip, who left at the end of his contract. But it is a situation that raises questions. As revealed in the English press this week, the new Liverpool coach was waiting to see his men at work before defining recruitment priorities. He would now like a central defender, a defensive midfielder, and two wingers.
Two big tracks
As indicated The Sunthere are already two players in the Reds’ sights to satisfy the ambitions and desires of their new coach. The Liverpuldians have thus entered the dance for Marc Guehi (24 years old), the central defender of Crystal Palace and the English selection. The English formation asks for more than 80 million euros; an amount that does not scare the Reds nor their Dutch coach visibly.
The other big name tracked by the Reds leads us to Anthony Gordon (23 years old), the Newcastle winger, also a player of the Three Lions. The media does not reveal sums, but indicates that Joe Gomez could enter the operation and do the opposite. Two big operations that would significantly strengthen a Liverpool team that should not, unless there is a turnaround, lose anyone by the end of the month…
