Liverpool are braced for some exits this summer.
The club are expected to revamp the squad, which means multiple players will be in and out of the doors at Anfield. Liverpool have three of their best players out of contract in the summer. Mohamed Salah, Virgil Van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold could all leave on free transfers at the end of the season.
The reds are expected to have a huge budget heading into the summer. Arne Slot and Richard Hughes will work together to revamp the team for next season.

Liverpool star considering exit
Liverpool could lose two first team defenders this summer. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil Van Dijk are set to leave when their contracts expire at the end of the season. The reds could possibly lose another defender; Ibrahima Konate has 12 months left on his current deal and the club could make a decision to sell him this summer.
This season, Jarell Quansah has not been able to feature much in the first team. Van Dijk and Konate have been healthy for most parts of the season. And because Arne Slot does not rotate his team much, Quansah has found first team minutes difficult to come by.
According to Football Insider, the youngster could seek a move away from Anfield in search of playing time. This is from transfer expert Mick Brown:
“He’s got to a certain level in his career, but now I think he needs to push on again.
“To do that, he’s got to be playing football at the top level.
“With the options they’ve got at Liverpool at the moment, it doesn’t look like he’ll be a regular any time soon, especially while they’re looking to sign new players there.
“So if he’s got the opportunity to go and play for Newcastle, I hear he wants to do that.
“He knows what’s best for his career, and at this stage is being able to play every week.“
Should the reds sell Quansah?
Selling a valuable squad player when you could lose two starters in your backline is a poor decision. Jarell Quansah is young but he has showed that he is good enough to play a part in the first team. His versatility means he can play at right back and in the center of defence.
At his age, he is at his highest value possible. Liverpool can make a lot of money of a young England international with Premier League experience. The club has a good youngster who can fill two positions across the whole season. Liverpool need to do everything possible to keep Jarell Quansah.
