Jamie Carragher has been vocal about Liverpool’s transfer needs this summer, highlighting the importance of reinforcing multiple key areas.
Speaking on The Overlap Fan Debate presented by Sky Bet, Carragher said:
“I still believe Liverpool need the number of players I’m talking about.”
On Liverpool’s ongoing business, he explained:
“It looks to me like he’s thinking, ‘Okay, let’s get the players in the team,’ because I think the left-back plays, who comes in.
Because I think if they haven’t signed anyone for a year, we know how Liverpool, they’ll be in the background speaking to the agents six months ago.”
On the left-back situation, Carragher added:
“We need a left-back.
I’ve always felt attacking midfield and left-back are the two areas that have really jumped out to me, I think, for probably 12-18 months.”
Regarding Wirtz’s role and the next target, he said:
“It looks to me as if like, okay, left-back, Florian Wirtz, whether he plays in Szoboszlai’s role or he plays from the left, I don’t know.
I wouldn’t be surprised if once Liverpool get these two or three done, the next one is the centre-forward…”
To conclude, the former Liverpool man further said:
“And then I think as the window goes on, Liverpool will just see who they can sell, what they can do.
They’ll assess what the situation is.”
