Jamie Carragher revealed his thoughts on Liverpool's transfer spending(Image: @TheOverlap/Youtube)
Jamie Carragher believes Liverpool will not grant Arne Slot the same power as they gave Jurgen Klopp and will sell players if they receive a good offer.
While Carragher feels Klopp would have been able to block the exit of a Liverpool player if he wanted to keep them, he does not feel Slot has the same influence.
While speaking on the Overlap, Carragher said: "We know a little bit of what’s gone on behind the scenes.
I think players who have been legends for the club and won the biggest trophies, were given contracts and were allowed to stay at Liverpool longer, too long basically.

"That’s why Liverpool fell off for a little bit and then came back.
I think the way they want to run Liverpool is that they are not going to sell their absolute best players.
"But a Diaz or a Gakpo, who are good players, they wouldn’t want to sell them, but if someone made them an offer, that they think 'That’s more than what we think (they are worth)’ I think that’s the way it will be run now, it will be like 'Oh no, he’s gone and we back ourselves to go again’.

"That’s what I mean in terms of those getting linked.
Such a move would break the Premier League transfer record, which is currently held by Chelsea, when they signed Moises Caicedo for £115m.
But while an unprecedented summer of Liverpool spending could soon take place under Slot, Carragher feels the Dutchman will not have as much control as Klopp did.

Carragher added: "Arne Slot is called the head coach.
He's the first head coach in Liverpool history.
"Even though he has won the league in his first season, I don’t think they’re going to allow what happened with Jurgen Klopp, where he was making these bigger decisions and he was a god and everyone loves him.

"I think there could be a few surprises who may go if Liverpool get offered the right money.”
