Not all the signings that Liverpool make during the next transfer windows have to revolve around the generational change that is already taking place gradually, because although it is true that the new blood in the institution will end up giving fruitful results in the not too distant future, the needs of the present mean that both Jurgen Klopp and his board see in people with experience and contracts to finish part of their new reinforcements for next year.

Liverpool's main and greatest need at the moment is in midfield with a sea of injured players who are gradually recovering and returning to training, with Jurgen Klopp opting to look ahead and visualise more elements that can be incorporated over the next year, bidding first for those who have a very high value on the market and then determining whether one of those who finish their contract can be of use for the final stretch of the 2022-2023 season.

No confidence in Luis Díaz? This is the attacker who would arrive at Liverpool

Over the coming summer, European football will see multiple players out of contract once the first of July 2023 arrives, meaning that clubs outside their domestic league will be able to enter into negotiations from the first of January, agreeing their arrival mid-year without any hindrance or exorbitant amount to pay to the institution with which they are about to break their relationship, something like that is what the Reds may experience with the departure of Roberto Firmino.

Among the list of players whose contracts are up and who could be of interest to Liverpool is Atletico Madrid winger Tomas Lemar, a Frenchman who was wanted by Liverpool five years ago when he was still playing for AS Monaco. Dutch striker Memphis Depay is another who has been linked with the Reds on a number of occasions, although it has also been suggested that he could return to the Reds next year.

Klopp wanted to sign Konrdal Laimer

Konrad Laimer is perhaps the most realistic reinforcement given Liverpool's links with a move for a midfielder this summer, as before losing Thiago Alcantara, Curtis Jones and Jordan Henderson to injury, there were rumours that the RB Leipzig man was someone in whom Anfield officials were keen. Real Madrid's Marco Asensio is also attracting a lot of attention, with the Spanish striker having been benched for Carlo Ancelotti's side and wanting to see him leave in search of minutes and opportunities, with Liverpool being his solution with Darwin Nunez still in the process of adapting.
