Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed that the Reds are actively preparing for a busy summer transfer window, with plans to sign at least four new players. The revelation comes as transfer expert Fabrizio Romano drops a surprising update on Liverpool’s market activity, fueling excitement among fans.
Speaking to the press this week, Arne Slot acknowledged the need for reinforcements across the pitch, stating: “Liverpool already has a strong squad with great players, but to truly compete at the highest level—especially in Europe—we need to strengthen key areas. This summer will be more active than usual for us.”
According to Liverpool Echo, the Anfield club is targeting reinforcements in attack, midfield, and defense. Two names already linked with the Reds are Newcastle striker Alexander Isak and Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, as Slot looks to reshape the team in his image ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
The Liverpool board believes the club must sign a world-class striker capable of delivering 30 goals per season. With Darwin Nunez underperforming—scoring just 7 goals in the 2024/25 season—his exit seems likely. In the event of his departure, a new forward will be a top priority.
Fabrizio Romano added to the buzz with a surprise update on his social media channels: “Liverpool are preparing something big. Talks are ongoing with several top targets. Four new players are expected—one striker, one midfielder, one left-back, and one centre-back.”
Despite Mohamed Salah renewing his contract and Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz enjoying solid seasons, the Reds know firepower is essential to challenge for the Premier League title and go deep in the Champions League.
Midfield and defense are also high on Slot’s list. Hungarian left-back Milos Kerkez has been a consistent target, while Liverpool is also monitoring several centre-backs and midfielders to solidify the squad depth.
With the summer window approaching, all eyes will be on Liverpool’s moves as Slot embarks on his first full transfer window at Anfield. If the club lands its top targets, a new-look Reds side could emerge as serious contenders on all fronts next season.
