Liverpool’s emphatic 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday sealed their 20th Premier League title, but the club’s hierarchy is already shifting focus to a transformative summer transfer window.

Determined to avoid the missteps of 2019/20- where some argue a lack of investment after their first title in 30 years led to a third-place finish the following season-Arne Slot’s side is poised for one of the most aggressive recruitment drives in their history.

After ending their 30-year title drought in 2019/20, Liverpool’s decision to sign only Kostas Tsimikas, Thiago Alcântara, and Diogo Jota proved insufficient.

Injuries and squad fatigue derailed their defense, culminating in a third-place finish and early Champions League exit.

But now according to The Telegraph, Slot will be granted “one of Liverpool’s biggest-ever summer transfer budgets,” with FSG prepared to table bids in the region of £100+ for targets they want as shown by the Moises Caicedo bid in the summer of 2023.

Key priorities include a left-sided defender and a clinical No.

Dean Huijsen: The Bournemouth center-back, valued at £50 million via a release clause, is a top target.

However, Bournemouth’s £45 million valuation for a potential rotational role behind Andy Robertson has sparked caution.

Alexander Isak: Newcastle’s £130 million price tag makes this a long shot, but his 24 league goals this season make him a clear upgrade on Arne Slot’s best XI.



Hugo Ekitike: Frankfurt’s 22-year-old forward, though raw, offers a cheaper alternative at £80 million

The club’s £57 million financial loss in 2023/24 hasn’t deterred spending, thanks to commercial revenue surpassing £300 million for the first time.

As Liverpool’s title parade winds through Merseyside on May 26, the message from Anfield’s corridors seems clear: this is merely the foundation.

With Manchester City regrouping and Arsenal improving, Slot’s rebuild must address both immediate needs and long-term succession planning.

Only a few clubs in the Premier League era have retained the title: Chelsea, Manchester United, and Manchester City.

And it seems that those behind the scenes are doing their utmost to ensure Liverpool can be added to this list next season.
