Liverpool is still working toward bringing Florian Wirtz to Anfield next season, with Reds fans hoping the German star will be on board for next season’s Premier League title defense.
Two offers have already been rejected by Bayer Leverkusen as Liverpool looks to reach an agreement for what would be a club record transfer.
Assuming his former Leverkusen teammate follows him to Merseyside, the pair could be part of a much-changed line-up for next season.
More signings will be expected this summer, with Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez looking the most likely to follow if/when a deal for Wirtz is completed.
And a new striker will also be high up on the shopping list, with no shortage of names being linked.
Julian Alvarez has been linked with a move to Liverpool this summer.

The Leverkusen star will be expected to slot straight in, likely as the No.10, meaning Dominik Szoboszlai would be the most likely to make way, going into a backup role for Wirtz, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch.
Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate keep their usual spots at the heart of the defense, although Liverpool could do with signing a new center-back if it can this summer
Meanwhile, despite the impending arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili, Alisson Becker should retain his spot as the Reds’ No.1 goalkeeper, with the Georgian becoming the new deputy as Caoimhin Kelleher departs.
Possible 2025/26 Liverpool line-up: Alisson; Frimpong, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Alvarez.
