With a huge amount of spending expected on both sides of the pitch, the Dutchman has an explanation for why he should be excited about the coming weeks of activity.
However, there’s also a lot that can happen for Slot, especially as he has such big shoes to fill in the Anfield dupassut after Jurgen Klopp left at the end of last season.
First on the former Feyenoord manager’s schedule is likely to resolve any uncertainty surrounding Mohamed Salah, given that there are increasing reports, once back, that Saudi Pro League clubs will try to recruit him again this summer.
The Egyptian foreigner will earn a significant sum if he travels to the Middle East, but he may be irreplaceable at this level and Slot wants to ensure the cunning winger is on board with his plan and has not had his head turned. the cash spent. offer in Saudi Arabia.
In the same vein, Liverpool will have to save Trent Alexander-Arnold or Virgil van Dijk from considering leaving the club. The defensive duo is out of contract in 2025 and will remain a mainstay on Merseyside next season.

Don’t miss. . . A space to show his hard-working side in promoting Klopp’s beloved star despite a rejected offer.

Therefore, it would be disastrous if Liverpool fail to strengthen their ranks this summer and miss out on their rivals’ main targets. If the likes of Crycensio Summerville were to head to Chelsea and Nico Williams to Arsenal, the club would possibly have to reconsider their decisions in the latter stages of the window.
With a right winger needed to cover Salah and potentially a new number 6 needed to reinforce the club’s core, not signing either would end a poor summer for Liverpool.
