Arne Slot is set to make a U-turn on transfer plans after Liverpool's defeat against PSV Eindhoven in the UEFA Champions League. The Reds headed to the Netherlands knowing that a top-two finish in the first phase of this season's Champions League was already secured.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot may already have the perfect alternative for Ryan Gravenberch within his squad, which could save the club millions. When Dutchman Slot replaced Jurgen Klopp in the summer, one of the major talking points was Liverpool 's midfield.
It is only if they reach the semi-finals that the six-time European champions could face some of the pre-tournament favourites, with Inter Milan, Bayern Munich and Manchester City among the sides who could be lying in wait.
"I know people sometimes question this because they haven't seen us doing a lot in the transfer market in the summer and now in the winter as well. There's a reason for that - because we're happy with the squad. "But I do know we're definitely working on strengthening in the summer."
