Liverpool Prepare Massive Transfer Budget for Arne Slot This Summer

Liverpool is reportedly ready to provide Arne Slot with one of the largest summer transfer budgets in the club’s history as he prepares to take over managerial duties at Anfield, according to The Daily Telegraph.

First Signing Confirmed: Giorgi Mamardashvili

Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili is set to become Slot’s first official signing, with his arrival expected in early July. The 23-year-old shot-stopper is seen as a long-term replacement between the posts.

Strengthening Key Areas – Striker and Left-Back

Despite securing Mamardashvili, Liverpool remains active in the market, prioritizing a new striker and a left-sided defender. The club has identified several top targets to bolster these key positions.

Target List Includes Rising European Talents

Among the top names on Liverpool’s transfer radar are:

  • Dean Huijsen (Bournemouth)

  • Milos Kerkez (Bournemouth)

  • Alexander Isak (Newcastle United)

  • Hugo Ekitike (Eintracht Frankfurt), who carries a reported valuation of €80 million

Potential Departures from Anfield

To balance the books and squad depth, several players may be offloaded. Striker Darwin Núñez, defender Joe Gomez, and left-back Kostas Tsimikas are among those rumored to be on the transfer list this summer.

Chelsea Rivals Eyeing Same Defensive Targets

Meanwhile, Premier League rivals Chelsea are also planning to reinforce their backline. They are reportedly pursuing Crystal Palace’s Marc Guéhi, a former academy player, and Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen, who has a £50 million release clause.
