Liverpool could be forgiven for feeling like they are the only Premier League club not signing midfielders at the moment.
While the Reds boast 11 senior options following the emergence of 18-year-old Stefan Bajcetic, and Juventus loanee Arthur Melo is the only one of those currently not fit, they are in need of a midfield revamp. Possessing quantity but not quality in their ageing, injury-prone squad, an overhaul is scheduled for 2023 as a result.
However, such plans are on hold until the summer with Jurgen Klopp reiterating throughout the month that Cody Gakpo will be Liverpool’s only new mid-season arrival. While the Reds are increasingly unlikely to qualify for next season’s Champions League, their form has not prompted that stance to change.
