Liverpool are three points away from winning the Premier League title this season. However, Arne Slot does not want to stand still and is pressing for a major revamp of the squad. His ambition is set to push the club towards signing one of the most wanted players in the world.
Slot is set to deliver the 20th league title to the Reds despite the club only signing Federico Chiesa last summer. The Liverpool manager now wants his own stamp on the squad.
The Liverpool manager wants to add more attacking flair to the team, both in the forward line and midfield, and is prepared to move on a few players to ensure there is space and money to bring in new signings.
The Dutchman wants more goals and assists from the midfield, and signing an attacking midfielder is believed to be a priority for the club in the summer transfer window.

Florian Wirtz is the most wanted attacking midfielder ahead of the summer transfer window, and some of the biggest clubs are chasing his signature.
Real Madrid and Manchester City are believed to be the top contenders to sign the attacking midfielder in the upcoming transfer window.
However, according to CaughtOffside, Liverpool are very much in the race to sign the German in the coming months, with Arsenal also keen to sign him.
The Reds want a top attacking midfielder to add more flair and creativity to their midfield in the summer, and Wirtz has emerged as their top target.
However, he is going to be expensive. Bayer Leverkusen have slapped a €150m asking price, and while that seems excessive, it could still take at least €120m to sign Wirtz.
Bayern Munich are also interested in him, and are ready to go into debt to get the deal over the line in the summer.
