The January transfer window opens in a week’s time.
And it remains to be seen whether Jurgen Klopp will be active in the market - certainly in terms of incomings. Liverpool have traditionally not been busy in the winter window during Klopp’s tenure, although they aren’t against the right deals.
Last year, the Reds swooped for Luis Diaz for a fee that could reach £50 million, while in 2018 they purchased Virgil van Dijk for £75 million.
Klopp has said he’ll bring in players if they’re the right fit and Liverpool are prepared to move. The Reds sit just sixth in the Premier League table and many fans feel new recruits are needed to ensure Liverpool finish in the Champions League places.
But it’s not just incomings Klopp may be focusing on. There could be players who depart Anfield - either permanently or on loan.
Here’s a look at who could potentially leave.
1. Naby Keita - permanent
The midfielder’s contract expires in the summer and Liverpool may want to fetch a fee if offered one. Keita has proved a mixed bag during his time at Anfield because of injuries, having arrivef for £52m in 2018. AC Milan have been linked. Photo: Andrew Powell/Liverpool FC via Getty Images
