Liverpool<\/a> could transform their squad this summer despite the fact they cruised to the Premier League title<\/a> in Arne Slot<\/a>\u2019s first season in charge. The Reds have been linked with a host of players but may first need to cash in on some of their current stars – and they could raise \u00a3315million from player departures during the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n

Liverpool<\/a> secured the league title at a canter after finishing 10 points above second-place Arsenal<\/a>. The north west giants lost just four times in the league and also reached the Carabao Cup final, where they lost to Newcastle<\/a>. But they fell short in the Champions League as they were knocked out by Paris Saint-Germain in the last-16. And there are question marks over whether Slot\u2019s side will be able to repeat their Premier League achievements with their current squad.<\/p>\n

Liverpool<\/a> are chasing some of Europe\u2019s most talented players and have been linked with Bayer Leverkusen attacker Florian Wirtz<\/a>, Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike and Sporting centre-back Ousmane Diomande.<\/p>\n

They are also said to be keen on Leverkusen right-back Jeremie Frimpong and Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez after missing out on Cherries defender Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid.<\/p>\n

Those targets are all likely to cost Liverpool<\/a> mega bucks but would help the Reds kick on to the next level. And Slot must cash in on the players he already has at his disposal if he wants to bring fresh talent to the club.<\/p>\n

Brentford have reportedly made a formal approach for Caoimhin Kelleher<\/a>, with Liverpool<\/a> believed to value the goalkeeper at \u00a320million.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Reds have apparently slapped a \u00a350m price tag on defender Jarell Quansah, who was limited to just four Premier League starts in Slot\u2019s first season.<\/p>\n

Joe Gomez could net the club \u00a330m, while Kostas Tsimikas may fetch around \u00a315m if he is offloaded during the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n

Further forward, Darwin Nunez appears to be out of favour under Slot after featuring just eight times from the outset in the league under the Dutchman. The Uruguayan clearly has bags of talent, despite his struggles in front of goal, so could command a transfer fee in the region of \u00a360m.<\/p>\n

Fellow striker Diogo Jota may bring in \u00a340m thanks to his knack of finding the back of the net, while the Reds could move winger Federico Chiesa on for roughly \u00a315m despite only bringing him to the club last summer.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Harvey Elliott is reportedly valued in excess of \u00a340m by his current employers, while 19-year-old Ben Doak was linked with a \u00a325m move to Everton in the spring. And 22-year-old Tyler Morton was reportedly labelled with a \u00a320m price tag by the Reds last summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool could transform their squad this summer despite the fact they cruised to the Premier League title in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":143382,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,2912,12031,4884,5759,179,763,61921,61920,100,11947,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-143381","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-florian-wirtz","11":"tag-football-section","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-hugo-ekitike","14":"tag-liverpool","15":"tag-liverpool-fc","16":"tag-ousmane-diomande","17":"tag-player-sales","18":"tag-transfer-news","19":"tag-transfer-news-section","20":"tag-uk","21":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114595320482251433","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143381","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143381"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143381\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/143382"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143381"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143381"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143381"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
