How Liverpool will line up with Dominik Szoboszlai
Liverpool have completed a £60m (€69.8m) deal for RB Leipzig attacking midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai.
The Reds had faced competition from Newcastle for the Hungary international, but the Magpies have pulled out of the race.
That paved the way for Jurgen Klopp's side to sign their second midfielder of the transfer window, after Alexis Mac Allister arrived from Brighton.
So, how will the Reds look in the 2023-24 season with the 22-year-old in their side?

Liverpool line up with Szoboszlai
Alisson is one of the best goalkeepers in the world and is expected to stay at Liverpool for years to come.
Trent Alexander-Arnold will continue to line up in the right-back position, moving into the centre of midfield in possession.
If they can keep fit, Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate will be the Reds' centre-back partnership going forward.
On the left, Andy Robertson is perhaps not at his peak anymore, but remains a reliable option.
Negotiations between Liverpool and RB Leipzig for Dominik Szoboszlai are very advanced and progressing to the final stages. 🚨🔴⌛️ #LFC

Fabinho is another player that is no longer at the peak of his powers. Youngster Stefan Bajcetic could take his place as the season goes on.
New signings Szoboszlai and Mac Allister will take up positions either side of the Brazilian, making for an offensive midfield trio.
Mohamed Salah is Liverpool's only world class forward, so he has to continue on the right wing.
Luis Diaz is on the left in this lineup, although Diogo Jota is a perfectly suitable option for that position.
Cody Gakpo completes the front three, in the Roberto Firmino role, ahead of the talented but erratic Darwin Nunez.
