Milos Kerkez (Bournemouth)

Andrew Robertson remains Liverpool’s first choice left-back, although the club are actively chasing a younger option as they look to sign a long-term replacement for the Scotland star.

Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez is one of the club’s priority targets and Liverpool are set to intensify their pursuit of the Hungary star ahead of the summer window.

Kerkez has enjoyed a stellar spell under Andoni Iraola and multiple reports have stated that he is eager to secure an Anfield switch when the 2024-25 campaign finishes.

Antonee Robinson (Fulham)

In addition to Kerkez, Liverpool are also looking to sign Fulham left-back Antonee Robinson.

The United States of America international has blossomed into one of the best defenders in the Premier League over the past few years, and Liverpool are currently leading the charge for his signature amid his impressive recent form.

However, Liverpool will need to make a decision on whether they want to purchase Kerkez or Robinson this summer.

Alexander Isak (Newcastle)

Newcastle United are desperate to retain Alexander Isak’s services and they are hoping to tie the Sweden international down to a new contract at St James’ Park in order to ward off suitors.

However, Liverpool are set to challenge Arsenal for his signature this summer, and Isak’s head may potentially be turned if Newcastle fail to achieve Champions League qualification.

Slot’s side are expected to target a new centre forward this summer and Isak is one of their top targets, despite the fact he may be unattainable.

Jeremie Frimpong (Bayer Leverkusen)

Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to join Real Madrid on a free transfer when his Liverpool contract expires in July, meaning the Reds may be forced to sign a new right-back as his replacement.

A number of stars have been linked with a move to Anfield in recent weeks, with Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong is seen as a potential option.

The Dutchman has excelled as a wing-back under Xabi Alonso, but Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing him as a direct replacement for Alexander-Arnold at right-back.

Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford)

Mohamed Salah’s future at Liverpool remains unknown and the Reds are therefore targeting several right wingers in the event the Egyptian departs.

Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo is one of their key targets following years of consistent output under Thomas Frank.

Arsenal and Manchester United are also known admirers of the Cameroon international, meaning Liverpool may face a significant battle for his signature.
