That is the maximum that Liverpool needs to ensure that it is playing Champions League soccer next season, which, after a difficult campaign, feels like a positive outcome.It is possible that Liverpool could overtake one or both of Aston Villa and Manchester United — two teams that it still has to face before the season concludes — but its final place in the standings, as long as it is no lower than fifth, doesn't really matter. That, of course, will leave a substantial gap in experience and leadership that needs to be filled.Progress has been made on a new deal for Ibrahima Konate, though, and Dominik Szoboszlai — this season's best performer — has already confirmed that he wants to stay.The returning Kostas Tsimikas could be the back-up left-back next term, with Milos Kerkez by that point having a full year under his belt to get used to the demands of playing for Liverpool.Slot has endured a tough season at Anfield(Image: Andrew Kearns / CameraSport)And, of course, it should not be forgotten that the Reds have already snapped up a highly-rated center-back in the form of Jeremy Jacquet, who will arrive from Rennes for a fee of around $83 million (£60 million).
In conjunction with Konate's contract, that is a significant move.Though the work of last summer has not properly come to fruition yet, no player that was signed was a bad purchase.Like Kerkez, Florian Wirtz has needed some time to settle, but his quality is undeniable, and Alexander Isak will be a rare example of an existing player genuinely being like a new signing, given he has played so little to date.Liverpool will need to replace Salah with a pacy wide attacker, and depending on other exits, there will be other transfer decisions to be made as well.Get LFC's 2025/26 season home and away kitsThis article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it.
