Liverpool have just four games of the season left to play before the summer madness gets underway.
The Reds are expected to be busy ahead of the new campaign as they look to retain their Premier League title.
‘Heavyweight’ additions have been predicted at Anfield, with Arne Slot and Richard Hughes finally looking to make their mark on the Liverpool squad.
As well as arrivals, though, there are likely to be some notable departures, too.
The headline exit is slated to be that of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who looks all set to join Real Madrid on a free transfer.
With less than two months now left to run on his Liverpool contract, hope is running out that Alexander-Arnold will pen fresh terms with his boyhood club.
However, the 26-year-old was fully involved and enjoying the moment at Anfield on Sunday as Liverpool were crowned Premier League champions.
After watching him get stuck into the festivities, Jamie Carragher has predicted whether Alexander-Arnold is is about to stay with the Reds.

After so much online chatter about his future – and some genuine anger being shown towards him by match-going fans – it was nice to see Alexander-Arnold enjoy himself on Sunday.
There had been some suggestions that the Liverpool academy graduate would be keen to stay out of the spotlight as he prepares to leave the club.
But that was not the case.

According to Carragher, though, while he hopes the celebrations may make a difference, the expectation should still be that Alexander-Arnold is leaving.
“It doesn’t look like,” Carragher told Sky Sports when asked if the right-back will be at Liverpool next season.
“I hope he is as I’m sure most Liverpool supporters do.”

“He’s a unique footballer, that’s why Real Madrid want to sign him and that’s why he’s been part of one of the most successful eras in Liverpool’s history.
But, you know, all will be revealed in the next few weeks.”
Although things are not looking especially good on Alexander-Arnold, there remains excitement over the rest of Liverpool’s plans for the summer.
This anticipation has also reached Carragher, with the Liverpool legend looking forward to seeing what his former club are about to serve up.
“I think the excitement now is what this manager is going to do with his own squad because it’s still relatively Jurgen Klopp’s squad and team really,” he said.
“He’s obviously moved it on from last season but I still think he’ll want to change things and put his own stamp on it in the summer and that makes me really excited for the coming years.”
If Alexander-Arnold can get onboard with that excitement and commit his future to Liverpool, things will start to look even better.
