Having already signed Alexis Mac Allister this summer, in a dream world Liverpool would like to still sign two more midfielders and a left-sided centre-back.
However, having seen the World Cup winner arrive for a fee in the region of £35m within two weeks of the Premier League season finishing, there remains no sight of the Reds’ second signing of the summer as things stand.
That doesn’t mean Liverpool have fallen asleep at the wheel, far from it. Patience was always going to be required with a number of their shortlisted players of interest currently competing in the Under-21s European Championships in Romania and Georgia.
