The summer transfer window 2025 has just closed on September 1, but Liverpool soon planned the next season with ambitious goals.
Coach Arne Slot has just experienced a busy summer when bringing back to 10 rookies, including Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike. Wirtz joined from Leverkusen for £ 100 million with an additional charge, while Ekitike came from Eintracht Frankfurt with an initial fee of 69 million pounds, despite the competition from MU and Newcastle. The Isak deal even lasted until the last day before Liverpool closed the price of £ 125 million to bring the Swedish striker to Anfield.
In addition, other recruits such as Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Giovanni Leoni, Giorgio Mamardashvili, Armin Pecsi, Freddie Woodman and Will Wright also landed, helping the Liverpool squad more depth.
In the opposite direction, Trent Alexander-Arnold joined Real Madrid for £ 10 million, Ben Doak to Bournemouth for £ 25 million, and Harvey Elliott was borrowed at Aston Villa.
Despite having just closed a frantic transfer, Sports Director Richard Hughes continued to prepare for the summer of 2026. According to journalist Lewis Steele (Daily Mail), Liverpool had an eye on Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa) in June, but the deal has not progressed. However, this is still the name that can be considered again.
Most importantly, Liverpool is said to be looking for “the successor of Mohamed Salah” in the long run. One of the outstanding goals is Michael Olise, French winger of Bayern Munich.
Olise (23) once impressed at Crystal Palace before joining Bayern in July 2024 for a fee of £ 50.8 million. In the first season in the Bundesliga, he exploded with 20 goals and 23 assists after 56 matches, contributing greatly to help Bayern win the national championship. Olise's contract is limited to 2029, which means that Liverpool will have to spend a large amount of money if he wants to convince the gray lobster to release.
Information about Olise immediately made the Liverpool fan community “stir up” on social networks. A fan commented: “Guehi in January, Wharton and Olise in the summer.” Others added: “Ekitike and Olise will become teammates at Liverpool next season.” Meanwhile, another account asserted: “Olise, Wharton, Rogers and Guehi are 4 names I am watching. All are HomeGrown players, very important for the squad.”
Obviously, although the season has just begun, Liverpool is ready for the next revolution to maintain the leading candidate position in the Premier League and Europe.
