Add to that a challenging injury list and questions over several fringe players’ futures, and it is clear that this will be one of the most important windows of Slot’s tenure at the club.Now, Sky Sports have shed some light on exactly which areas of the pitch Liverpool are targeting — and it covers more ground than many fans might have expected:“Head coach Arne Slot has hinted at necessary changes to the squad this summer and both full-back positions, centre-back, defensive-midfield and the forward line are all being looked at.”The breadth of that recruitment scope underlines just how much work is required ahead of the new season.At left-back, Germany international David Raum has emerged as a serious target following Robertson’s departure, with the RB Leipzig captain drawing widespread admiration for his attacking output — registering three goals and eight assists across all competitions this season. He would slot in alongside Milos Kerkez to give Slot genuine depth and competition on that flank.In midfield, the name on everyone’s lips is Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton.

The 21-year-old England international has been one of the most impressive players in the Premier League this season. At a reported fee in the region of £85m, it would be a significant statement of intent from the club.Then there is perhaps the most mouth-watering link of all, Yan Diomande, with Liverpool having already held talks with Leipzig over a potential deal.
