With Jérémy Jacquet already secured, Liverpool FC’s summer plans are beginning to look clearer — and potentially very bold.
Potential arrivals
Liverpool’s business could still include two major additions:
- Yan Diomande (£85m) — a marquee attacking signing with pace and goal threat
- Adam Wharton (£70m) — a composed midfielder seen as a long-term cornerstone
Alongside Jacquet (£60m), that would take total spending to around £215m — a serious statement of intent.
Potential departures
Outgoings could reshape the squad just as much:
- Curtis Jones (£25m)
- Joe Gomez (£20m)
- Harvey Elliott (£15m)
- Federico Chiesa (£10m)
Around £70m recouped, meaning a net spend of roughly £145m.
What looks positive
There’s a clear direction:
- Investing in youth and long-term quality
- Strengthening the spine with Jacquet and Wharton
- Adding attacking firepower with Diomande
It’s proactive and ambitious.
The concerns remain
Even with Jacquet already in, questions still stand:
- Losing Jones and Elliott reduces depth and homegrown options
- Gomez leaving removes versatility and defensive cover
- A heavy reliance on new signings adapting quickly
And importantly — this would still be a major squad shift, not just a tweak.
Big rebuild energy
This doesn’t feel like fine-tuning — it feels like a reset.
That can work, but only if:
- The new players hit the ground running
- The system is clear and consistent
- Enough leadership remains in the squad
Final thought
With Jacquet already through the door, Liverpool have made their first move.
If the rest follows, this becomes a statement window — bold, expensive, and full of intent.
The question isn’t whether it’s exciting.
It’s whether it’s the right mix to take Liverpool back to the very top.
