The obvious hole in the squad that Arne Slot inherits would be at center-back but it remains to be seen whether a player in that position is targeted.

We start with a look at Real Madrid and Brazil star Rodrygo.

Rodrygo (Real Madrid)

Liverpool has made a 'check' on the availability of Real Madrid forward Rodrygo this summer, according to HITC.

The new Liverpool home shirt for the 2024/2025 season features a chrome yellow pattern design and is a modern take on the legendary '84 home shirt - a season which saw the Reds become European Champions for the fourth time in Rome and the first English Club to win a treble of major honours.

Maybe if the Brazilian was to be kept on the bench in the main next year, that stance might change, but for now, it appears unlikely he would push for an exit.

Liverpool.com says: It's worth asking the question, if indeed Liverpool has, but Real Madrid would not want to lose such a talented player

The Reds need an attacker but it would make more sense for it to be someone who can play most often off the right.

Nico Williams (Athletic Club)

Earlier in the week, The Athletic reported that Williams is "not under consideration" for Liverpool this summer

But that hasn't been enough to stop reports in Spain from continuing.

Now, Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo suggests that Liverpool has 'made contact' with Athletic Club about a move for Williams because Luis Diaz remains on the agenda for Barcelona
