Liverpool fans were left furious by the club’s transfer inaction last summer when they only signed one player in the form of Federico Chiesa and failed to get the priorities sorted out.
Arne Slot has turned Jurgen Klopp’s side into the favourites to win the Premier League this season without getting any help from the hierarchy in the last transfer window.
Richard Hughes and his recruitment team are under pressure to deliver in the winter window as the fans want Slot to get the backing he never received last summer.
Liverpool supporters believe that a good window could light a fire under their title challenge in the latter half of the season and midfield is one position many feel they need strengthening.
The Reds are believed to be looking at signing a new number six and players such as Aurelien Tchouameni have been linked with a move to Anfield in the winter window.
However, Liverpool are keen to calm down the expectations ahead of the winter transfer window.
Arne Slot is happy with his squad
Liverpool’s recruitment team have been looking at options and several players are being assessed ahead of the January transfer window.
However, the club are keen to temper expectations ahead of the winter window given the difficulties of doing business in the middle of the season.
According to The Athletic, Liverpool do not expect to do much, if any business, when it comes to bringing in new players in the January transfer window.
Can you name the team Liverpool sold these players to?
Slot is happy with the options in his squad and believes he has depth in every department so he is not demanding any radical changes.
His squad options are only going to get enhanced by the return of Diogo Jota, Harvey Elliott, Federico Chiesa and Alisson from injuries.
Liverpool do not believe that there is any glaring need to do any business and have enough confidence in the overall quality of their squad.
They also feel the amount of money it would take to convince clubs to sell important players in the middle of the season would be too much.
