But we also know that Kostas Tsimikas is coming back.

“The first aim is to see how we are acting in the position of Mo, if we want to replace him with a similar player or if we do something differently. At this moment in time I don’t think there’s a chance of others leaving, of course there’s the Ibou situation.

So then there might not be such a big need of trading a lot if you don’t need to bring many players in.” You can only pick ONE player for Liverpool to sign this summer, who is it?
