Final Take
Liverpool have constructed an entire squad overhaul during Arne Slot's tenure: record-signings like Wirtz, Frimpong, and Kerkez balance out major departures. The front three remain threatful, but should Díaz or Robertson depart, back-ups like Guéhi or Ben Doak-linked targets are in their crosshairs.
Next on the agenda: Liverpool may aim to sign a striker (e.g., Ekitike) and a centre-back to finalize squad fine-tuning.
