The transfer window is open and Liverpool will be looking to shape their side for a new era.
Arne Slot arrived from Feyenoord at the end of the season to replace legendary boss Jurgen Klopp. The Dutchman faces no small task to follow the German's efforts but he will hope to produce results quickly.
Slot will receive assistance during the summer months for the club's transfer hierarchy in Michael Edwards and sporting director Richard Hughes. They too will be looking to shape the direction of the club following their arrivals.
With that said, Mirror Football takes a look at some of the latest transfer news from Merseyside.

Corriere dello Sport have suggested the Rossoneri have been in touch with Wieffer’s agents already, with more talks expected in the coming days. The Serie A side hope to come to some agreement with the 24-year-old's camp before attempting to persuade Feyenoord.
The defensive midfielder is not part of Netherlands' Euro 2024 squad so a move could move more quickly. The defensive midfielder has a contract until 2027 so Feyenoord will be comfortable with their position however.
