Liverpool parted ways with six pivotal figures from the Jurgen Klopp era in 2023, including a $54 million deadline day exit, foreshadowing the conclusion of the German's stewardship.

The Reds haven't glanced backwards since Klopp departed Merseyside, making way for Arne Slot, who secured the Premier League crown in his debut campaign.

Key architects of Klopp's triumphs, including Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, were offloaded, with numerous players departing without fees to herald a fresh generation under the German's replacement.



The 2023 summer window brought wholesale transformation to Merseyside, with the club's engine room completely restructured and substantial funds invested.



Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, whose spectacular free kick secured the Reds' Sunday evening victory over Arsenal, joined for $47M and $82M respectively.

Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch also finalised summer moves, though it was those ushered through the exit that truly symbolised fresh starts.

Well ahead of the summer deadline, four formerly crucial first-team stalwarts chose to depart the club when their contracts expired.

Roberto Firmino was among the four who departed, signing with Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli in June.

Four Reds players left for free during the summer window.

Brazilian defensive midfielder Fabinho also made the move to Saudi Arabia, signing for Al Ittihad in a deal worth $54M.

In total, six crucial players from Klopp's reign left for a combined sum of $70M, with just $54M of that recouped on deadline day.
