How Liverpool could line up next season as Jurgen Klopp eyes seven new signings including £70m Naby Keita
Liverpool are still yet to make their first signing of the summer, with The Independent understanding Jurgen Klopp wants as many as seven new signings at Anfield.
Klopp has already snapped up Mohamed Salah from Roma for a deal worth an initial £35m with a number of new faces set to follow as the German looks to assemble a squad capable of competing both in the Premier League and in Europe.
Virgil van Dijk appeared like he would be joining the Egyptian for £50m but after the Reds were reported for ‘illegal activity’ by Southampton, they apologised and pulled out of negotiations to sign him through fear of a transfer ban.
Klopp is also scouting his homeland for talent and has settled on RB Leipzig pair Naby Keita and Timo Werner, although he faces a battle if he is to take two of the Bundesliga runners-up’s best players.
The club are also reportedly ready to break the bank in order to sign Borussia Dortmund forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
With Champions League football added to Liverpool’s fixture schedule this season, quantity is as important as quality this summer to make sure the side don’t burn out, as they appeared to towards the middle of last season.
