00:00Liverpool are actively exploring the transfer market after the 2025-26 season.
00:08They need to reshape and defend their title.
00:12With Bayer Leverkusen's Jeremy Fringpong high on the shortlist,
00:16the Dutch right-back has a £29.5m release clause and is reportedly open to a move to Anfield.
00:24With Trent Alexander-Arnold now at Real Madrid, Fringpong is seen as a natural replacement.
00:29Thanks to his pace, attacking threat and energy down the flanks.
00:34In centre-back, Dean Hoyssen is also on Liverpool's radar.
00:38The highly rated 19-year-old, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Roma,
00:43is attracting attention from several major clubs, including Real Madrid and Arsenal.
00:50Bournemouth are believed to value him around £50m,
00:53but Liverpool are seriously considering a move as they plan to bolster their back line,
00:58with youth and potential.
01:01Leaps, you know, manifold.
01:05So, if you're, say, a striker and Liverpool need one,
01:09why wouldn't you want to go and lead the line for Liverpool?
01:11If you're a left-back, why wouldn't you want to go and play in defence that,
01:15you know, has been excellent defensively and you're going to have the licence to get forwards as well?
01:19Why wouldn't you want to go and do that?
01:20Moving up the pitch, the Reds have been linked with Nottingham Forest's Ola Aina,
01:26who could offer versatility in a number of positions,
01:29though no formal bid has yet been made.
01:32Schlott is believed to want a blend of experience and physicality in the middle of the park,
01:37and the club are monitoring a number of potential options across Europe.
01:42Liverpool are also looking at attacking reinforcements to support their forward line,
01:47though no major developments have surfaced yet in that area.
01:51With Arnish Schlott aiming to build a team capable of challenging on all fronts,
01:55Liverpool's recruitment strategy appears focused, deliberate and aimed at adding depth.
02:01The potential arrivals of Frimpong and Huyzen would signal intent
02:05and fans can expect a busy summer,
02:08as the club targets smart signings to evolve the squad for the next chapter.
