Liverpool wasted no time in completing their first transfer of the summer after signing Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton & Hove Albion.
The World Cup winner joined the Reds less than two weeks after their 2022/23 season finished, arriving for a fee believed to be in the region of £35m. The start of a long-awaited midfield revamp, Liverpool are still expected to sign at least one more midfielder this summer, if not two.
Jurgen Klopp would call upon the services of 11 different senior midfielders last season, with such a total rising to 15 if we wish to include Trent Alexander-Arnold, Cody Gakpo, Roberto Firmino, and youngster Bobby Clark. With the Reds’ engine-room still a major concern, having delayed their overhaul into this summer, it became clear that quantity does not always mean quality at Anfield.
