It's in midfield where Liverpool are expected to make at least two new signings though and that's reflected in their long list of supposed targets. Along with Jude Bellingham, Liverpool are said to be monitoring moves for Edson Alvarez, Ismael Bennacer, Ruben Neves, Youri Tielemans and Nicolo Barella.

Chelsea saw a £43million deal to sign Alvarez collapse last summer and looks set to force through an exit this time around. Premier League duo Neves and Tielemans have long been linked with a move elsewhere and the latter is set to leave Leicester as a free agent this summer.

Both Bennacer and Barella have earned rave reviews for their performances in Serie A over the past few years and Liverpool will unlikely be alone in expressing an interest in the two.
