"Liverpool may have spent upwards of 400m in the summer, but it has become clear that additions are still needed to Arne Slot's squad. A new central defender is to be signed in 2026, while there is also scope for another midfielder to be brought in. Liverpool have been lacking in the centre of the park in recent months, with the likes of Alexis Mac Allister, Florian Wirtz and Curtis Jones having failed to step up on a consistent basis."
"Should Liverpool spend big on Federico Valverde? There is no doubt that Liverpool need a centre-back, but an energetic midfielder would also help solve their problems. Valverde, who has also been linked with Chelsea and Man United, is arguably the best in the world in this mould, which is why he would be a fantastic addition to Slot's squad. However, it is almost certain that this money is not spent on one player again,"
Liverpool spent around 400m in the summer but still requires further reinforcements, including a new central defender planned for 2026 and potentially another midfielder. The midfield has shown inconsistency, with Alexis Mac Allister, Florian Wirtz and Curtis Jones failing to provide regular reliable performances. Real Madrid's Federico Valverde is identified as an ideal energetic midfield option and can also play at right-back. Valverde is contracted until 2029 and would likely command about 150m, an amount difficult for Real Madrid to refuse. Liverpool may, however, prefer a cheaper alternative after recent big-money signings struggled.
