Liverpool will see plenty of changes in the club this summer from the manager to backroom staff to a new sporting director, but how will that affect their squad?
A new manager will bring new ideas and new likes and dislikes for the current set of players, regardless of what is achieved this season. There's a strong youth contingent in the squad which will certainly look different next season. Some players are poised to leave the club at the end of their deals (Thiago, Joel Matip) but there are others who could depart, be it on a permanent deal or on loan.
Therefore, we've decided to look ahead to the summer to see which players could exit the club.
1. Joel Matip - Out
An ACL injury suffered in December is likely to rule him out for the season and a renewal of his current deal is unlikely with Klopp leaving.
2. Thiago - Out
The Spaniard has featured for just 10 minutes all season and is likely to remain out for the rest of the campaign. His deal is up in the summer and it seems better to allow him to leave on a free.
3. Adrian - Out
The third-choice goalkeeper's deal is up in the summer and considering he has featured once since August 2022, this could be the end.
4. Caoimhin Kelleher - Out
The Irishman produced a stunning display in the EFL Cup final and he looks like a number one keeper in waiting. Sadly, that won't happen at Liverpool given that Alisson Becker remains at the club. Given that Nottingham Forest bid £15m on deadline day in January, the club may receive more offers in the summer and the player may be ready to take the step up to being a number one elsewhere.
