With the Premier League everything but won, Liverpool has to focus their attention on the future in what a busy window is in the summer transfer.
In a quiet summer last year, the Reds assured the services of the Georgian goalkeeper Giorgi Mhaldashvili and added Federico Chiesa to their ranks. Arne Slot has confirmed that this summer will be busier. A dilemma that is bothering the Anfield club is immediately back their gaping gap, awaiting the expected exit of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid.
Conor Bradley, the Understudy of Alexander-Arnold, is a capable entire back, but the Northern Irish has recently struggled with nibbling injuries, perhaps finally give rise to the market for options.
Yet a different position that Liverpool has to act quickly to improve is their left side if they want to move forward next season. Kostas Tsimikas has not succeeded in proving his suitability for Topbaan since he joined Liverpool in 2020-21. He was used sparingly to offer some lighting to the aging Andy Robertson.
The 31-year-old has been a faithful servant of the Reds for eight years, but with his contract ends at the end of the 2025-26 season, it would be wise to cash in on a depreciatory. The statistics of Sofascore suggest that he did not act according to his earlier standards and has collected only one assist in all competitions this season.
His 6.93 Sofascore rating is lower than other left back on the market and its 73 minutes per game average questions his sustainability in the long term while Liverpool continues to compete on different limits. This raises the question of who Liverpool should buy to replace the Schotland skipper and to improve their overall attacking and defensive game.
Best left side for now:
Alejandro Grimaldo – Bayer Leverkusen
Grimaldo has settled as one of the best attacking left -wing backs on the planet now after his huge debut campaign with Bayer Leverkusen last season.
The Spanish international took 10 goals and 15 assists in 33 performances in their title-winning campaign in 2023-24.
The former youth player of Barcelona has continued this season in the same spirit with 14 goals so far and, according to Sofascore, has created 17 great opportunities.
Known for his rising runs along the left flank, Grimaldo would also be an ideal choice to connect with Colombian winger Luis Diaz, since they speak the same language.
Nevertheless, the attacking cruelty of the 29-year-old contrasts to make his tendency to have his left back more conservative, so that the Reds of him are off the road.
Nuno Mendes – PSG
After Mendes' great display against Mo Salah in the Champions League, the Portuguese defender could be the best step to strengthen their European hope next season?
With a sofascore rating of 7.36, the physical qualities of Mendes are impossible to ignore with 7.2 last third submissions per match and 4.9 ball repair per match, which overshadowed Robertson (6.2 and 3.4 respectively)).
The 22-year-old has a prosperous career for him and Liverpool could splash the money to bring in one of the world's best left backs.
Maximilian Mittelstadt – VFB Stuttgart
Could Mittelstadt have played his entire career in Germany after two solid seasons in Stuttgart a move to England?
Mittelstadt received international recognition after his start for the Germany of Julian Nagelsmann at the Euro 2024.
This campaign, the German international has one goal and 9 assists to his name for a Stuttgart side that has had difficulty replicating the highlights of last season.
The 28-year-old could be a signing of the Radar for Liverpool and, according to Sofascore, can be collected for slightly less than £ 20 million.
Antonee Robinson – Fulham
Fulham's looting left -wing back has forced itself in the 'Best Left Back in the Premier League' interview with his consistent versions for his club this period.
Robinson showed signs that he was capable of the form of this season during the 2023-24 campaign, where the American picked up six assists.
Now, after 10 assists this period, its market value has been set up and the importance of Liverpool in the 27-year-old has increased.
Robinson's tempo, intersection and defensive insight would fit directly for what lock wants in his entire back.
Theo Hernandez – AC Milan
Galopend French International Hernandez has enjoyed an impressive career in both Spain and Italy.
The 27-year-old is about to enter the flourishing of his career and offers, with four goals and six assists in his name this season, a great option for the Reds.
He also rarely misses many games in a season and misses about four games per season in the last eight campaigns, making him a reliable asset.
With a value of £ 35 million with another year transfer to his contract, Liverpool was able to obtain his services at a reduced price.
Investment for the future:
Lewis Hall – Newcastle
The former Chelsea Youth Player has had an excellent season for Newcastle and settled back as Eddie Howe's Go-To Left.
His intersection is his most striking weapon and claims four assists of his 29.1 percent intersection accuracy, created together with six major opportunities.
The 20-year-old, however, has undergone an ankle operation that will see him for the rest of the season, so that Liverpool could chase him.
Nathaniel Brown – Eintracht Frankfurt
After his time at Nuremberg, the German youth international Nathaniel Brown forced his way on an exciting side of Frankfurt who is performing well this season.
The 21-year-old is an attacking threat, which assists three goals and four in 24 games in all competitions this season.
He competes with the Sofascore rating of Lewis Hall (7.24) with 7.14 and, with an estimated market value of £ 11.6 million, he could be an absolute bargain for the Liverpool long -term strategy.
Jorrel Hato – Ajax
Dutch Lost Hato is currently one of the most valuable under 21's in the Eredivisie after he has pushed his way to the first team.
The all-round game of the 19-year-old shows an enormous quality both attacking and defensively. He has registered eight target involvement and 4.11 Balherstel per match for the Dutch Giants Ajax.
Given the growing connection of Merseyside-Nederland, Hato could be tempted to continue his growth alongside other Dutch internationals such as Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch and Cody Gakpo.
Milos Kerkez – Bournemouth
The Hungarian is strongly connected to the Premier League Giants while enjoying the best season of his career.
Kerkezs has seven goals this season in all competitions for the cherries.
Andoni Iraola has turned Kerkez into a physical monster that can bomb and forward with 5.53 last third submissions and 4.66 ball recovery per match.
His centimeter-perfect cross against Tottenham for their opening goal in a 2-2 draw reflects his immense intersecting quality, a characteristic slot would be interested in his left back.
The acquisition of the services of the 21-year-old will not be cheap. Given his age and quality, it would not be surprising if Bournemouth would require a reimbursement of approximately £ 50 million.
