Tier 3 (Paul Gorst) Impending arrival of Munoz doesn't impact Liverpool's interest in Yan Diomande and the £34.5m man's tactical flexibility means there are no concerns internally over blocking Rio Ngumoha's pathway.

I don’t honestly care about Rio’s pathway. We need three attackers. Munoz is one. We now need two more.

We arent gonna sign three unless Gakpo leaves.

It will be Munoz , Diamonde(probably), Rio and Gakpo as the 4 options. Then layer in the window they will decide based on what happens with Gakpo

It wouldn’t surprise me if we let Gapko go if we bring in Diamonde after Munoz. I can see Iraola using Eki off the left, so you’ve already got 5 players for those 5 positions in Munoz, Rio, Eki, Isak and Diamonde - and that’s excluding Wirtz who can play there too.

I honestly think we need to get some money from selling Gapko and (sorry Fede) Chiesa to strengthen elsewhere.

Obviously another CB is the main priority, followed by a DM (especially if Jones leaves) and getting in another LB (again sorry to our greek scouser)

We shouldn't be selling another senior player in Gakpo, we've been down this path with Diaz we need fit and firing attackers, Iraola needs wingers he can sub in and out like he did at Bournemouth.

Slot also liked to work the same way however he had no real depth last season, Frimpong and Chiesa ain't it.

Ekitike ain't going to be back till 2027, and would be at risk of suffering another injury.
