Will Slot be satisfied with Liverpool's summer transfer signings?
The last-minute move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, which should have put the finishing touch on an almost perfect transfer window, ultimately failed to materialize, leaving a tinge of disappointment.
However, deep down, Slot is eager to leverage a star-studded squad to achieve another strong start to the season.
He has a wealth of attacking talents, a versatile midfield, solid and experienced defensive players—center-backs Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté, as well as goalkeeper Alisson.
Even if Liverpool's injury situation has been far worse than expected this season, the squad depth can still provide sufficient security for the team's results.
What is the top priority in January?
Given that Guehi was just one step away from signing at that time, it would come as no surprise if Liverpool reopens negotiations in the winter.
Since his contract is set to expire, the transfer fee will be lower, making this option potentially more attractive. Another alternative is to hold on and attempt to sign him as a free agent next summer.
Will there be funds available during the winter transfer window?
Liverpool owner Fenway Sports Group (FSG) will always maintain flexibility to respond to changes or market opportunities.
Through transfer sales this summer, the team has recovered a large portion of the total expenditure, and the current financial position is sound, which will be beneficial for future transfer windows.
