Having kept their finances largely intact last summer, Liverpool are expected to be active once the market reopens. Towards the top of their priorities list is set to be a new central striker.

‌Arne Slot has flittered between options in that position but there is an emerging view that the Merseysiders will look to sign a first-choice centre forward for next season.

Like most top clubs across Europe, Alexander Isak would be towards the top of their list but a deal for the Newcastle star makes the prospect of him leaving St James' Park unlikely.

‌Liverpool are also expected to be in the market for at least one new new full-back given Trent Alexander-Arnold's talks over a free transfer to Real Madrid and lingering doubts over Andy Robertson's long-term role in Slot's team.

‌Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez and Fulham's Antonee Robinson are among the players linked.

Whether Liverpool can retain Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk in addition to Mohamed Salah will likely shape their business, particularly in terms of incomings.

For instance, Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi is a player that has been considered in the past, but the current indications are that Liverpool won't look for a starting centre-back if captain Van Dijk stays.
