It looks like Liverpool are set to have a busy calendar as Arne Slot sets into his role as head coach in the Merseyside club. The transfer window has officially opened, meaning Arne Slot could be making his mark at Liverpool by making a statement by signing Ivan Toney this transfer season.
Sporting director Richard Hughes will be keen to make some changes and potentially bring in fresh faces into the squad, with a few obvious areas to target.
The defence is said to be the main priority, particularly a left-sided centre-back, along with a new No. 6 and potentially a winger if Luiz Diaz or Mohammed Salah decides to leave the club.
Liverpool Could Sign A New Attacker This Transfer Season!
Even though Liverpool has a lot of options in the attacking department, such as Darwin Nunez, Luiz Diaz, and Cody Gakpo, that doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be an area to look for soon enough.
The Euros 2024 showed us that Cody Gakpo can thrive at the left side, which puts pressure on Darwin Nunez.
Liverpool Could Sign Ivan Toney From Brentford!
Ivan Toney’s future at Brentford seems to have gone into thin air, having been banned from playing football due to the betting charges.
Toney has been linked with Arsenal for a while, but the links have gone cold, there were talks with Tottenham Hotspur, and a bid from Tottenham worth £40m was rejected by Tottenham after falling below Brentford’s valuation of £65m.
With one year remaining on Toney’s contract, Brentford could risk losing Ivan Toney for free next summer if a buyer can’t be found this summer.
Liverpool must consider Ivan Toney as a competition for Darwin Nunez, at Liverpool or could even be a replacement.
Here’s what Ivan Toney said about his conversation with Jurgen Klopp in the month of February:
“It was like I was smiling at him, as he’s obviously quite a handful and really tricky to play against — although I used a different word,” Klopp said at the time. “Am I right that he’s a Liverpool supporter and he’s not shy of saying that?”
