Liverpool manager Arne Slot hinted at introducing extra weapons into his squad, and it appears the Reds are getting their business done early this summer.

That wasn't to be, though, with a lack of depth and apparent tiredness of first-teamers costing Liverpool dear as Slot appeared reluctant to call upon new man Federico Chiesa and some other fringe stars.

"As we all know, we went out of the cup in Plymouth, and against PSV (in the Champions League's league phase) we lost, which wasn't an important game anymore," Slot said.



"And I think I made six substitutions against Paris Saint-Germain, where the extra time wasn't our best period of the game.

“If I look at the way we think about next season and our squad, these are things that are on my mind.

I think we can find one or two extra weapons that this team doesn’t have."

Those first weapons look like coming at full-back, where the Reds faced some questions earlier this season.

Jeremie Frimpong is on the verge of a £30million move from Bayer Leverkusen, while talks continue to progress over a swoop for Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson, the full-backs who started Liverpool's Champions League finals under Jurgen Klopp in 2018, 2019 and 2022, have continued to play regularly this term.

On the right, Alexander-Arnold's deputy Conor Bradley has had a tough time with injuries, meaning the likes of Curtis Jones and Jarell Quansah have featured in an unfamiliar role.

Bradley is going nowhere, though.
