Liverpool plan a significant activity in the 2025 summer transfer window to strengthen their squad following their Premier League title win under manager Arne Slot.

After securing the league title, Liverpool aim to make at least four key signings focused on boosting creativity, depth, and defensive solidity. The club's targets include a new left-back, a central defender, a striker (a new number nine), and a creative player who can operate as a left winger or attacking midfielder. This plan is driven by the departure of key creative players, including Trent Alexander-Arnold, who left for Real Madrid, creating a gap in both defense and attack that the Reds are eager to fill.

Defensively, Liverpool are prioritizing a left-back replacement for Andy Robertson, whose form and long-term future have been questioned. Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez is reportedly their primary target for the left-back position. At centre-back, despite Virgil van Dijk’s renewed contract, the club seeks additional depth with young, ball-playing defenders like Dean Huijsen and Marc Guehi on their radar.

Upfront, Liverpool are aiming to replace Darwin Nunez, who struggled to fit into Slot’s system. They are linked with Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins as a potential new striker to provide a more consistent goal threat beyond Mohamed Salah. Additionally, Liverpool are exploring a creative attacking player to offset the creativity lost with departures.

The future of winger Luis Diaz is significant in Liverpool’s plans. Should Diaz leave—possibly attracted by lucrative offers from the Saudi Pro League—Liverpool could intensify their pursuit of Real Madrid’s Rodrygo, seen as a high-quality attacker capable of playing across the front line, although his signing remains speculative and early in talks.

Liverpool’s ambitions also include internal promotions, as Conor Bradley is expected to challenge for the right-back role vacated by Alexander-Arnold. Overall, with summer spending potentially surpassing £250 million, Liverpool are preparing to invest heavily to maintain their Premier League dominance and challenge on other fronts in the upcoming season.
