It’s all set to happen at Liverpool this summer, with Feyenoord manager Arne Slot set to update Jurgen Klopp as manager.
Slot has earned a reputation for working well with young players, making the Dutchman a natural choice to stick with Klopp. The current Reds boss has brought several academy stars to his team, some of whom fit his plans.
The next generation of young stars have spent much of this season on loan, 20 of whom have left Anfield temporarily. Not all of them will yet be in a position to sign for the first team.
But a significant portion will expect to interfere with Slot’s plans once he arrives on Merseyside. Here, Mirror Football takes a look at how Liverpool’s 20 loan players have fared this season.
Ramsay arrived at Liverpool with high hopes when he arrived in the summer of 2022, but his two loan spells this season have been a disaster, with the Scot struggling to have an effect at Preston North End or Bolton Wanderers. An additional loan will be needed before he can be considered fit to make the first team.
Williams’ season has been nothing short of a disaster, with the defender making more appearances for Liverpool’s under-23s than on loan at Aberdeen. In fact, the 23-year-old even struggled to sit on the Dons’ bench. He seems to be far from a place in Liverpool’s first team.
Carvalho started the season at RB Leipzig but was basically used as a substitute in the Bundesliga team. His relationship with Leipzig broke down and he was sent to Hull, where he played a prominent role in their play-off campaign. Although he narrowly missed, the Portuguese foreigner has a good chance of promotion to Liverpool’s first team.
Davies spent much of the season as Crewe’s first-choice goalkeeper but completely disappeared from his squad in the adjustment period. Although Caominhin Kelleher is expected to be sold this summer, Davies wants to spend another season on loan before he can be considered as a candidate to upgrade Alisson.
One of the most notable players among Liverpool’s loan players has been Beck, who played for Dundee. Before being injured in March, Beck was a regular starter for the Scottish side, scoring two goals and getting four assists in 28 appearances to help them finish in the more sensible half. With doubts about the quality of Kostas Tsimikas, Beck is a prominent candidate to be called up to the first team.
Van den Berg is one of the few who stood out in a dismal crusade for Mainz. The 05ers have battled relegation all season, and Van den Berg is only one game away. While Liverpool’s defence will be reviewed this summer, it is possible that he will simply be called upon. to intensify their efforts.
As it turns out, there’s little chance Arroyo will ever be a Liverpool regular. He has started for Burgos in Spain’s second division this season, but the 24-year-old has noticed Conor Bradley emerging as the best replacement for Trent Alexander. -Arnold, right-back. A sale is likely this summer.
It’s been a disappointing season for Balagizi, with the 20-year-old struggling to have a loan effect at Wigan or Kilmarnock. The midfielder has made just thirteen appearances in total this season and a few other loan spells this summer prove to be his most productive option.
Corness enjoyed a successful crusade at Yvderon-Sport in the Swiss Super League, likely helping them avoid relegation. The midfielder has made 21 appearances in all competitions, another loan would probably be better for the 21-year-old.
Lewis has had a combined season on loan at Newport County, having experienced several stints at a team that has had a disappointing year in Ligue 2. His second stint at Rodney Parade and a permanent move to an EFL team will likely result in his maximum maximum. moving this summer.
Ojrzynski is a young red who has had combined fortunes on loan. The Polish goalkeeper spent much of the season as a substitute for Dutch second-division club Den Bosch. He’ll want some normal playing time on loan next season if he wants to convince his parent club. who has a long career at Anfield.
Koumetio will need to do it this season as soon as possible. He was first loaned to Dunkirk, but a fight forced him to be recalled to Anfield. The defender was then sent to Blackburn Rovers but was unable to report to the championship team. There’s little chance he’ll be remembered through Slot this summer.
The 19-year-old has enjoyed a successful season at Stalybridge Celtic. The non-league side were so inspired that they extended his loan in January and it looks like Hewitson will move this summer.
After a rocky start to the season, Norris ended the crusade as Tranmere’s starting left-back. Rovers finished in the middle of Ligue 2 and the loan would be more productive for the 21-year-old’s development.
A star of Hull’s bid for a place in the championship play-offs, Morton turns out to be the candidate requested through Slot. He scored 3 goals and got five assists in 41 games for the Tigers, and also played abroad with England’s under-21 team will likely appreciate the chance to paint with the budding star.
After a difficult spell at Celtic, Phillips found good luck at Preston. He made 18 appearances for the North End and proved to be an absolute choice. But with his contract expiring in 12 months and the Englishman willing to play, the time has come to sell.
Stephenson has been a valuable person for Barrow this season, even if he hasn’t contributed any goals or assists. His team narrowly missed out on the third-tier play-offs and another loan would probably be better for the youngster at a normal level. position.
If Kelleher leaves this summer, Jaros would be the candidate to take his place. The Czech inspired Sturm Graz in the Austrian Bundesliga, winning the OFB Cup and helping them finish top of the league ahead of the play-offs.
Chambers has a wonderful chance of breaking into Liverpool’s first-team squad in pre-season after excelling at Wigan in the second half of this campaign. He spent the first part of the year at Anfield, making several appearances in the Europa League. However, most have compatibility with it.
