Liverpool fans could be in for an exciting Easter Sunday as they close in on the Premier League title.
If the Reds beat Leicester and Arsenal fall to an unlikely defeat against Ipswich, Liverpool will be crowned as English champions for the 20th time.
More likely is that Liverpool need a win against Tottenham at Anfield next Sunday to confirm their status as the best team in the land.
Reds supporters won’t mind that, with title celebrations at their home stadium long, long overdue.
In the meantime, head coach Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes are busy putting together plans to improve the team in the upcoming transfer window.
And according to journalist David Ornstein, Liverpool look likely to have some significant funds available.

From the outside looking in, some may wonder how it’s possible for Liverpool to get even better than they have been this season.
However, for those watching week on week, there are clear improvements needed to this Liverpool squad.

There is plenty of business that needs to be done.
And speaking on NBC Sports about the Reds’ plans this summer, Ornstein says they are looking in good shape financially to deliver what is expected.
“Liverpool’s ambition is expected to be underlined by their summer transfer plans,” Ornstein says.

“To strengthen at left-back,” he continues.
And there maybe more work to do in what’s expected to be a busy summer at Anfield.”
To overhaul this Liverpool team in the manner needed, it is going to take a princely sum.
Ornstein has put forward three virtually certain areas where Liverpool will bolster – centre-forward, left-back and centre-back – and adding together the values of players linked in those positions can give us a guide to how much exactly could be spent.

Alexander Isak is the top target as a new striker, with the Newcastle frontman having an extraordinary price-tag of £150m.
Isak may not be get-able, but Liverpool are seemingly ready to go big on a forward.
Kerkez has been rated at around £45m, with Dean Huijsen’s value set at £50m given the presence of a release clause in his contract.
Signing those three players would therefore come in at £245m.
