Liverpool overhauled their squad by spending a record £450million on new players Image Credits: Imago ImagesArne Slot has revealed that Liverpool are not planning to repeat last summer’s busy transfer window, with finding a replacement for Mohamed Salah now a priority.Salah is in the final weeks of his nine-year spell at the club, having announced he will leave at the end of the season on a free transfer, while Andy Robertson will also depart at the end of his contract in the summer.Meanwhile, Kostas Tsimikas will return from his loan spell at AS Roma in the summer. “Last summer we made quite a lot of signings and that is why we traded so much,” said Slot.“In the four windows I’m here now we’ve had a net spend of £150m and that says what kind of club we are.

We know Robbo and Mo are going to leave so that means changing two players, but we also know Kostas Tsimikas comes back (from loan at Roma).“So the first aim is to see how we are acting in the position of Mo, if we want to replace him with a similar player or if we are going to do that differently.“For the rest, I don’t think at this moment in time there is a chance of other players leaving. Of course there is the Ibou (Ibrahima Konate) contract situation.“I don’t think in numbers (of how many we need).

We already know some players are going to leave. Let’s see what happens in the summer.“You know we are a trading club, so let’s first see what is actually going to happen in the summer then we know better what to bring in.“There might not be such a big need of trading a lot if we don’t need to bring a lot of players in.” Liverpool have already signed Jeremy Jacquet from Stade Rennais for around £60million.
