Liverpool are delaying their summer transfer plans until they appoint a new manager. Ruben Amorim is the current frontrunner for the managerial position, but the uncertainty surrounding Klopp’s replacement is affecting the Reds’ summer plans.

Liverpool is reportedly interested in a summer move for a left-back whose future at Real Madrid is uncertain beyond the current season. Though he has been an important player under Carlo Ancelotti, Madrid has not offered him a contract extension, as his current deal has only a year left.

Liverpool has made contact with the player’s representatives, but the club is waiting to appoint a new manager before pursuing the player further. As Klopp’s departure was announced, Liverpool’s chief executive Billy Hogan emphasized that the process of replacing the manager would take time.

He mentioned that the club needs to go through a thorough process, relying on data and due diligence before making a decision and an announcement. Hogan stated that the club would do everything possible to make the right decision for the future of Liverpool.

He also stressed that the process should not be a distraction and that the club would provide updates when there is something substantial to announce.
