Arne Slot, the new head coach of Liverpool, won’t begin his position until June 1st, but FSG will want to begin signing players as soon as feasible.

It’s possible that Liverpool may have one of their busiest summer transfer windows in a while, if not their most significant one.

Arne Slot was appointed head coach of the Reds earlier this week, and they welcomed him to Anfield. The former manager of Feyenoord will take over for Jurgen Klopp, who decided to step down after the Premier League season was completed.

Unlike Klopp, Slot will not have as much influence on transfers because of his head coach position when he formally begins his new role on June 1. The 45-year-old will, however, be able to choose which players to add to his squad for the inaugural year.

There’s a good chance that Klopp and Slot won’t drastically adjust their approaches. Both players prefer a high-pressing style of play where the ball is won back as high up the pitch as feasible.

This implies that FSG will be at ease addressing players before Slot ever enters the structure. Making a decision over Darwin Nunez’s future at centre forward is a major problem for Liverpool this summer.

Nunez finished the previous season with 18 goals in 54 games, although some have doubted his abilities because of the opportunities he lost. Despite rumours that he was linked to the Saudi Pro League, Mohamed Salah has hinted that he will stay at Anfield for the upcoming season, but his play at the conclusion of the season was alarming.

In light of the possibility that a few crucial areas need to be reinforced, the ECHO has examined the most recent bet365 odds to find out who fans are picking to sign with Liverpool.

Pedro Neto – (Wolverhampton Wanderers – 7/1)

Pedro Neto

This season, the Wolves winger has shown promise, leading Gary O’Neil’s team to a decent Premier League finish. O’Neil has not hidden the financial difficulties his team is facing, which has sparked rumours that star player Neto would be offloaded. Although Manchester City is currently the front-runner to capture the Portuguese forward, Liverpool is an outsider.

Viktor Gyokeres – (Sporting Lisbon – 10/1)

Viktor Gyokeres

If Anfield had appointed Ruben Amorim, Liverpool would have been the front-runners to capture this Swedish striker. The top of Europe have taken notice of the 25-year-old as he has scored 43 goals since leaving Coventry City in the summer. Although the Reds are now trailing Arsenal in the race to sign him, it is anticipated that he will remain in Portugal.

Victor Osimhen – (Napoli – 14/1)

Victor Osimhen

Osimhen will be moving during the summer transfer window, as Napoli has confirmed they anticipate his departure. Although the Premier League has been mentioned as a possible destination, Chelsea and Arsenal are in the lead. Osimhen is favoured to sign with PSG, but Liverpool might decide it’s worth entering the fight to replace Nunez.

Jadon Sancho – Man-United (loan to Borussia Dortmund) – 20/1

Jadon Sancho

It is safe to assume that if Sancho were to transfer straight from United to Liverpool in the summer, it would come as a tremendous shock. However, Erik ten Hag might be forced to trade the winger to the Reds if they were the only team interested in him throughout the summer. Right now, it appears that his best options are to remain at United or relocate permanently to Dortmund.
