Liverpool have major plans to strengthen their title-winning squad, but the success of their transfer window will also depend on how and who they sell. Sporting director Richard Hughes is aiming for several departures, and interest from Saudi Arabia is always welcome.
Arne Slot wants to carry out major surgery on his squad, and the club are ready to back his vision for the team in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Liverpool manager will have a considerable war chest in the summer, but the club are also expected to sell as many as ten players to boost their spending power.
Liverpool are looking to move on a few established superstars, and it has been claimed that Saudis are pushing hard to take at least two players from the Merseyside giants.

Saudis carry out double raid on Liverpool
According to CaughtOffSide, Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal want Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz in an expensive double raid in the upcoming transfer window.
Nunez is expected to leave Liverpool, and Al Hilal’s interest in signing the striker on a lucrative contract ahead of next month’s World Cup is well-known.
However, they are also pushing to convince Diaz to leave the Reds and move to Saudi Arabia in a stunning summer move.
Diaz has been a big part of Liverpool’s success this season, and still has two years left on his contract. They are set to open talks over a new deal with his representatives.
However, they could be open to selling him if the negotiations do not go according to plan.
Al-Hilal could offer an astonishing £136m for two deals to sign Nunez and Diaz in the upcoming transfer window.
Liverpool have decided to move on from Nunez, but the club are yet to take a call on selling Diaz.
