Ten Liverpool players are departing as part of Arne Slot’s summer transfer plan.

Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara

After losing a number of squad members, Liverpool will be trying to finish deals this summer.

Ten players who have reached the end of their Liverpool career will say goodbye to the club today. Contacts usually end on June 30, as is customary throughout the English top flight.

Now that this day has arrived, the Reds will formally say goodbye to several people who were once part of their organisation.

At the first team level, Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara are now unrestricted free agents and will not have their contracts extended. During their tenure on Merseyside, both players have experienced their fair share of injury issues, which probably had an impact on the decision about their future.

Adrian is another player whose contract expires today; he has been extended an offer. What will happen next with the Spaniard, who has allegedly agreed to return to his boyhood club Real Betis, is still unknown at this time. The 37-year-old may still stay at Anfield, however this is not definite.

Adam Lewis, Mateusz Musialowski, and Melkamu Frauendorf—all of whom have played senior level for the club—are making their way out the door at the Academy level. While Musialowski had to wait until March of this year for his chance after being used from the bench in a Europa League victory over Sparta Prague, Lewis made his first-team debut in an FA Cup replay against Shrewsbury Town in February 2020 but has spent the last four seasons out on loan. Frauendorf also made their maiden start against Shrewsbury, though it was in January 2022.

The club chose not to extend terms with the young players, therefore fellow Academy players Nathan Giblin, Francis Gyimah, Luke Hewitson, Niall Osborne, and Cody Pennington will also be starting new chapters in their lives as of right now. Goalkeepers Jacob Poytress and Reece Trueman have been given the chance to continue their career with the team, just like Adrian did, but there has been no update regarding their commitment to this choice.

RB Leipzig is interested in Liverpool midfielder as clubs are looking for summer transfer

Hull City

The most recent transfer rumours from Liverpool indicate that 21-year-old Tyler Morton is drawing attention from across the continent for the summer.

According to reports, RB Leipzig and other European teams are interested in signing Tyler Morton, a midfield player for Liverpool, on a permanent summer transfer.

Morton, 21, a Wirral native, joined the Reds academy at the age of seven and appeared in nine first-team games under Jurgen Klopp. The last was in March 2022 and as roads into a regular starting berth are often restricted at Anfield, he has exploited Championship loans to get the majority of his senior experience to far.

His first term away from the club was with Blackburn Rovers, turning out 46 times for the Lancashire club, then last season he enjoyed playing a crucial position in the engine room of Liam Rosenior’s Hull City side, who nearly lost out on the play-offs. The Liverpool loanee’s achievements were rewarded when he scooped up the division’s young player of the month award in December.

Under new head coach Arne Slot, Morton is scheduled to return to Merseyside for preseason training. However, The Times reports that he may be traded soon after, as many prominent teams are reportedly interested in signing him to a long-term contract this summer.

Leading the charge is RB Leipzig, who have experience doing business with Anfield executives. The two teams worked out a £60 million deal for Dominik Szoboszlai last summer, and then they had a less than ideal loan experience with Fabio Carvalho.

Along with unidentified Premier League rivals, the article claims clubs “the calibre of Sevilla, Feyenoord, Eintracht Frankfurt” are also interested in the midfield player.

It is reported ‘nearly every’ Championship club would like to take Morton on loan for the season ahead also, yet it is now the player’s wish to advance his career at the next level. He last renewed his Liverpool contract in January 2023, and his exit is believed to hinge on the club’s evaluation of valuation, Slot’s perceptions once pre-season training is begun and lastly Morton’s own plans.
