Liverpool ready to sanction overhaul for Arne Slot’s squad with THREE key players up for sale already

Liverpool may well be sitting pretty at the top of the Premier League but Arne Slot's side could experience a summer overhaul with three key players potentially being sold.

The Anfield side are on course to win the English top flight in Slot's first campaign in charge on Merseyside, currently having a six point lead over second placed Arsenal and with a game in hand over the Gunners.

This is despite Slot only becoming Liverpool boss last summer after replacing Jurgen Klopp in the Anfield dugout following the German's decision to stand down from his position after almost a decade of success which included winning both the Premier League and Champions League.

The Reds are also in the last 16 of the Champions League, have reached the Carabao Cup final where they will face Newcastle United, and will take on Plymouth Argyle at Home Park this afternoon in the FA Cup fourth round.

Liverpool made only one signing in Slot's first summer in charge, bringing in winger Federico Chiesa from Juventus for a transfer fee of £10m.

The Reds did also not bring in any further reinforcements in the recently closed January transfer window, so aside from Chiesa is largely the team which Klopp assembled before departing.

It is likely there will be changes in the squad in the summer and a report has now emerged suggesting three key players could be on their way out of the club in a major overhaul of Slot's side.

According to Anfield Watch, attackers Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz could leave the Merseyside club in just a few months from now.

The report states that both Nunez and Diaz will be targets for the Saudi Pro League in the summer, by which time the players will have three and two years left on their respective contracts.

Portuguese international Jota will also be entering the final two years of his contract by this summer and there is doubt over his future owing to his injury record.

Diaz joined Liverpool from Porto in January 2022 for an initial £37.5m transfer fee, while Nunez arrived that summer for an initial £64m from Benfica.

Jota meanwhile joined from Wolves in 2020 for a potential transfer fee of up to £45m.

Nunez has 39 goals in 127 games for the Anfield outfit, while Diaz has found the back of net on 36 occasions in 130 matches.

Jota meanwhile has 64 goals in 165 games for the club.
