The Reds have already completed a move for Bayer Leverkusen's dynamic wing-back Jeremie Frimpong, who steps in to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold, now at Real Madrid. Frimpong, known for his attacking flair, has expressed excitement about working under head coach Arne Slot. "I'm really excited to work with Arne Slot. Even at the national team, some Feyenoord boys told me, 'He's the best coach I've ever had,'" Frimpong said.

Negotiations for Frimpong's former Leverkusen teammate Florian Wirtz are advancing rapidly. Liverpool are pushing to finalize a fee for the German playmaker, with both clubs eager to avoid prolonged talks. "All signs indicate Liverpool will soon sign Florian Wirtz, with both the club and Leverkusen eager to finalize talks quickly," journalist Dominic King reported on X. Barcelona's Hansi Flick praised Wirtz, calling him "an outstanding technician, very creative, with a good shot."

Bournemouth's left-back Milos Kerkez is also close to joining, with Liverpool confident of sealing the deal soon. "Patience with Milos Kerkez deal. The feeling is the same: he's fully expected to become Liverpool player soon," transfer expert Fabrizio Romano posted on X.

In a move to bolster their youth ranks, Liverpool have agreed a deal worth around one million euros for 16-year-old Senegalese winger Sidy Barhama Ndiaye from the Diambars academy. French journalist Nabil Djellit shared on X: "Liverpool flashed during the last #CANU17 on Sidy Barhama Ndiaye. The Senegalese winger (2009) will leave the Diambars academy to engage with #Liverpool. The transfer is estimated at 1 M euros."

To fund their ambitious spending, Liverpool are set to offload striker Darwin Nunez, who joined for 85 million pounds in 2022. Romano confirmed Nunez's departure is imminent, stating on X: "Darwin Nunez remains guaranteed exit at Liverpool this summer with Saudi Pro League clubs keen since January. Understand also Napoli have made contact in the recent days." Nunez, open to both Saudi and European moves, could fetch a significant fee to balance the books.

Former Liverpool midfielder Don Hutchison hailed the Reds' transfer strategy. "If you're a Liverpool fan and Frimpong, Wirtz, and Kerkez are in, what a window that would be," Hutchison told Gambling Zone. He also praised the retention of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, saying, "Keeping Salah and Van Dijk, two special players you literally cannot replace, is a massive victory."

Hutchison highlighted Slot's faith in the current squad and young talents like Ibrahima Konate, Jarell Quansah, and Alisson Becker, alongside the incoming Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia. "Slot didn't panic buy last season. He had the vision to say, 'How do I buy better than Salah?'" Hutchison added.

On the coaching front, Liverpool are set to appoint Giovanni van Bronckhorst as assistant manager, replacing John Heitinga, who left for Ajax. "Liverpool are set to add former Feyenoord, Rangers, and Besiktas head coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst as assistant manager," ESPN reported.

As Liverpool prepare for pre-season friendlies against Preston North End, AC Milan, and Yokohama FC, their bold transfer moves signal intent to dominate under Slot's leadership. With a blend of star signings, youth investment, and strategic exits, the Reds are shaping a squad ready to challenge for silverware in 2025-26.
