As the dust begins to settle on Liverpool’s acquisition of Darwin Nunez, focus will shift towards what other transfer business the club will complete this summer. Supporters will naturally be hoping for more signings, but they will also have to be braced for further exits.
Divock Origi has already left, Sadio Mane looks set to join him and the pruning of Jurgen Klopp’s squad does not look likely to end there. Takumi Minamino might have been the Reds’ top scorer in both cup competitions this season but that doesn’t appear to have secured his spot in the squad, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is rumoured to be on Manchester United’s radar.
As much as it’s impossible to see that move coming to pass, it’s certainly feasible to imagine the former Arsenal man moving on this summer. But it’s also fair to ask if Liverpool would be leaving themselves a little short if they were to sell both Oxlade-Chamberlain and Minamino ahead of 2022/23.
