Since signing Arne Slot this summer, Liverpool have not yet made a signing, but they do know what position they want to develop.
This summer, Liverpool added a new head coach and a new sporting director, but they have n't yet introduced any new faces on the pitch.
True Betis, Arsenal, and Manchester United were all shown off in the team's preseason friendlies in the USA, but the transfer windows is now shifting as the team is now back in England. Since the club has won in all three of the team's preseason friendlies, Real Betis, Arsenal, and Manchester United have been eliminated.
When the couple's agreements expired following a period in which the pair missed out on the run-in due to injury, the club decided to lose the top players Thiago and Joel Matip.
According to The Athletic, Liverpool have prioritised signing a professional number six before the glass breaks in three-and-a-half days.
While the novel director was swift to applaud Gravenberch's performance in the 3-0 win over Manchester United in South Carolina, this place will now be the focus. Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch, and Wataru Endo have previously played in this role during the US tour.
The document adds that there could be advances this week with the team said to be looking at a player from outside the Premier League to complete this position. A handful of people that fit this bill have been linked over the summer, including Alan Varela of Porto and Atalanta's Ederson, but the review gives no additional clues as to who the player that the Red are targeting could get.
Slot addressed the number six location following Sunday's win over Manchester United.
" I think Ryan]Gravenberch ] did really well in that position and we have other options as well", he said.
" The best way to judge it is when we have all the players back and we still have n't, but a club like Liverpool always keeps its eye open to see what's available, players who can strengthen the squad and that is what we — Richard] Hughes ] mostly— but me as well are looking to do.
" That is not specific to one place. We regularly assess the squad's capabilities and capabilities.
England wrap up their summer with a Sunday pleasant against Sevilla, before flying to Ipswich Town on August 17 to begin their Premier League campaign.
