Liverpool are preparing for the winter transfer window and are assessing several players. However, there is now a real worry amongst the fans that the club will not sign anyone of note in the middle of the season.
The Merseyside giants sit at the summit of the Premier League table and fans thought that the club would look to provide that extra push in the title race by bringing in reinforcements in January.
However, the noises coming out of Liverpool are very different and there is a certain sense of calm around the club ahead of the winter transfer window.
Arne Slot is said to be happy with the options he has in his squad and with several players set to return from injuries, the Liverpool boss does not feel he needs new players in January.
Livderool do not believe that they need reinforcements in the winter window to sustain a title challenge but that could cost them a teenage prodigy they have been tracking.

Sverre Nypan is a midfielder who has been attracting the interest of some of the biggest names in Europe with his performances for Rosenborg.
According to TBR, Rosenborg have asked the player and his representatives to start looking for a new club once the Norwegian season ends in early December.
Liverpool are amongst the clubs who have been tracking him and they have also been in contact with his representatives over a potential move to Anfield.
However, Manchester United are pressing forward with their efforts to take Nypan to Old Trafford in the near future.

The Red Devils have started work on a deal to sign him and are looking to conclude the negotiations soon with Rosenborg and the player’s camp.
Manchester United are confident of signing a player who they have been tracking since he was 14 and the midfielder has visited them more than once.
Nypan is available for around £10m but the final deal is likely to touch the £20m mark including add-ons.
Chelsea and Manchester City are also interested in the teenager but for now, Manchester United appear to be leading the race to sign him.
It remains to be seen whether Liverpool decide to get back into the race for Nypan ahead of the winter window.
