Before the transfer window begins, Liverpool might disclose Jurgen Klopp's first summer acquisition.
Liverpool plans to restructure its midfield this summer to provide Jurgen Klopp a unit with greater skill and depth.

With the Reds apparently close to signing Brighton midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, Liverpool could reportedly begin their summer reorganization as early as next week. As Jurgen Klopp rebuilds his midfield, it appears as though the playmaker will be the first one through the door at Anfield.

The Reds boss has made it clear that he plans to spend big over the next several months in order for his team to once again compete for the championship. The Merseyside team failed to change players frequently enough, as evidenced by this season’s fifth-place position, and efforts are already being made to correct the problem.

Liverpool is putting a high priority on recruiting at least two midfielders this summer because Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Naby Keita, and James Milner are all leaving the team as free agents. Mason Mount and Conor Gallagher of Chelsea have both been mentioned, and the team has a history of being interested in Matheus Nunes of Wolves.

But Fabrizio Romano claims that the Reds look to have decided to make Mac Allister their first summer acquisition. According to reports, Liverpool is aiming to finalize “player side details” with the Argentina international before the end of the week, including his potential contract and personal terms.

The Reds will then make contact with Brighton and are prepared to meet the ‘exit clause’ in his contract, which is reportedly less than £70 million. Despite their present focus on signing Sporting star Manuel Ugarte, Chelsea has also been connected to Mac Allister.

It will be interesting to see if Liverpool can reach an agreement with Brighton before the transfer window opens on June 14 and if this is an indication of things to come at Anfield in the coming months.

In order to fill Julian Ward’s position, the Reds hired Jorg Schmadtke earlier this week. The German initially signed a short-term contract that will keep him in charge of the team only through the forthcoming window. Schmadtke told Sport1 about how he will conduct business in the Premier League: “The coach’s input in transfers is stronger in England than it is in Germany, where a sports board or a sports director handles everything in one hand. The priorities are set by Klopp.

He will then select from a list of players that he’d like to work with after consulting with data analysts and scouts. I’ll then approach the clubs and targets after that. Finally, the investors themselves must be happy with their investments.
