Liverpool has done two transfer deals so far this summer but Jürgen Klopp could yet perfect his squad even further ahead of the 2023/24 season kicking off vs Chelsea.

Liverpool has already had a very successful start to its summer business, but more may yet be in store. In an ideal world, Jürgen Klopp would bring in a center-back and an additional midfielder before the game.

While the urgent need to add a player to their roster in light of Thiago Alcântara and Jol Matip’s upcoming free agency might be questioned, sooner rather than later it will need to be done. Both players have contracts expiring in the summer of 2019.

Therefore, if the appropriate candidate is available for the right price, it would undoubtedly make sense for Liverpool to try and fill each of those positions straight away.

The midfield is under a little less stress with the acquisitions of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai. That duo will result in an instant improvement for two thirds of Liverpool’s important neighborhoods.

In a perfect world, 18-year-old Spanish prospect Stefan Bajeti might wind up replacing Fabinho in a more natural and long-term way.

Nevertheless, if a team has the correct mix, there can never be too many talented players at one club. This explains why Roméo Lavia, a wonderkid from Southampton, has drawn significant interest, according to The Telegraph.

According to that source, Thiago may need to be sold in order for Liverpool to pursue a transfer for the Belgian, albeit in a perfect world, they could be able to accomplish both before the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich star’s contract expires. No harm would come from a year of overlap.

The Chelsea’s willingness to deal Levi Colwill would be the best-case situation in defense. Football.Although Todd Boehly is emphatic that he won’t let the defender depart, London reports that Liverpool has made several inquiries about him.

Colwill will have to be persuaded of his purpose at Stamford Bridge, but it is easy to see why Chelsea wants to keep him so badly, despite the fact that it needs to raise money to pay for even more recruits. He would be a very good player to be looking at since he checks off every box for Liverpool, including being left-footed and homegrown, even though a transfer might not be feasible.

Someone with an attainable release clause — like Sporting’s Goncalo Inaicio, who could be bought for $49m (£38m/€45m) — might be a more realistic buy, but the direction that Liverpool turns remains to be seen.

Here is how the Liverpool squad is shaping up so far, and where the room lies for more new additions.

Goalkeepers: Alisson, Kelleher, Adrián

Defenders: Alexander-Arnold, Konaté, Van Dijk, Robertson, Gomez, Matip, Tsimikas, new signing 

Midfield: Szoboszlai, Fabinho, Mac Allister, Jones, Elliott, Henderson, Thiago, Bajčetić, new signing(plus young players who could be involved, including Bobby Clark)
