The Reds are in a strong position heading into the summer window.

The club have secured a record breaking kit deal with Nike and posted record profits last year.

Further to this they have a long list of talent that they are willing to part with.

Michael Edwards has already shown in recent seasons that he can drive a hard bargain and has often managed to secure pretty hefty fees for pretty average players – how did he get £19m for Dominic Solanke?

The ECHO have claimed that Liverpool are set to earn around £75m in a summer player sale which would see the likes of Dejan Lovren, Harry Wilson, Marko Grujic and Xherdan Shaqiri all heading for the exit door.

What RTK has to say

If The Reds were to generate such a vast amount from player sales this summer then we can expect some expensive incoming signings.

With Liverpool in a strong financial position and hoping to cement their place as the dominant team of the next decade, they will need to add some variety and depth to the squad.

The club have prided themselves on their sustainable approach to transfers during Jürgen Klopp’s reign, if we do end up selling all of the above players then it would be a continuation of a policy that has served us well in recent seasons.
