July 6th – In a recent interview, Liverpool’s new Director of Football, Richard Hughes, stated that the club’s manager, Slot, will prioritize a comprehensive evaluation of the squad, with transfer activity likely to occur later in the window.
Hughes commented, “Our first priority is to improve on the training pitch. I think July will be quite calm in terms of transfers, and then August might pick up. By then, we’ll have had more time to work with the players, and the club’s direction will be clearer.”
When asked about potential signings following the initial quiet period in Liverpool’s transfer window, Manager Slot said, “I don’t have any specific numbers. It’s clear that we’ve inherited a great team. Some changes were made last year. From my perspective in football, you can see how important it is to work daily with a team over a longer period, as seen in the Euros. I’m fortunate to join a club where there hasn’t been significant player turnover. Losing players makes progress more challenging.”
