Liverpool are expected to make some signings under their new manager, with potential departures as well. The decision to appoint Slot was partly based on maintaining continuity in the team’s formation, as Slot has favored a back four in his previous role. While his preferred formation differs slightly from Klopp’s, there are similarities that suggest a smooth transition.

Slot, at 45 years old, will have several decisions to make in his first window at the club. There has been speculation about Lutsharel Geertruida from Feyenoord joining Liverpool, potentially adding depth to the backline. The attacking style of full-backs favored by Slot suggests that Andy Robertson will retain his position.

In the middle, much depends on the future of Van Dijk, but the partnership with Jarell Quansah is seen as promising. There are also options for the double pivot, with potential signings such as Alexis Mac Allister and Teun Koopmeiners. Additionally, Dominik Szoboszlai or Harvey Elliott could potentially move into a number 10 role.

Regarding the attacking positions, potential departures may open up space for new signings or internal promotions. There have been rumors about potential moves for Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota, but their future with the team remains uncertain. With the new manager at the helm, there may be changes in the composition of the team, and it will be interesting to see how the squad evolves under Slot’s leadership.
