Liverpool ’s transfer window last summer was hailed at the time as one of the most ambitious in recent Premier League history.
After a quiet summer the year before, the Reds flexed their financial muscle to bring in the likes of Alexander Isak , Hugo Ekitike , Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez .
The expectation was that this added firepower would help Liverpool retain the Premier League title, but reality has proved far different.

The summer additions, barring the now injured Ekitike, have struggled to make a significant impact at Anfield, and the season has been a disappointing one.
And one of those summer signings could soon find himself pushed further down the pecking order.
Jeremie Frimpong has flattered to deceive since his arrival from Bayer Leverkusen , only starting 10 Premier League games.
The exciting, creative right-back who lit up the Bundesliga has not been on show in the Premier League, and as a result Liverpool could look for an upgrade.
According to Tuttomercatoweb , Liverpool are still interested in Inter right-back Denzel Dumfries .
The Reds reportedly attempted to sign the Netherlands international on loan in January, but their offer was rebuffed.
That is an indication that Arne Slot is not happy with his current options in the position, with Conor Bradley out injured since January.
Dumfries is said to have a £21.7m release clause in his contract at Inter , and several “European giants” are interested in signing him this summer.
A potential sticking point could be that Dumfries has just turned 30, and Liverpool’s transfer policy is typically to sign younger.
But he is more of a proven quantity than Frimpong, who is five years younger but has been unable, so far, to adapt to life in the Premier League.
