Liverpool have had a difficult season. Jürgen Klopp has had to deal with a drying up of goals at the same time as an injury crisis at the back. The Reds will have to invest heavily in the summer in order to get back to the top. Liverpool could turn to LeBron James to help land Kylian Mbappe.
Major investment needed
There will surely be a major overhaul of the playing staff this summer.
The club have to bring in fresh blood after a season which has exposed just how thin the squad is.
We have had to pull players this way and that to cover for injuries.
The backup players in the squad haven’t had the quality to maintain our necessary high standards.
The result has been a steady slide down the table, leaving a top four an uphill struggle.
A lethal striker is needed to bring the goals back, Kopites have one man in mind.
LeBron James partner in FSG
This week LeBron James became a minority partner in FSG.
The basketball legend has been a minority owner of Liverpool FC since he bought a 2% stake in 2011.
He has upped the ante this week during a time when FSG are working on ambitious investment plans with a reported $750m deal with RedBird Capital still being worked on.
LeBron James and Kylian Mbappe
There is a school of thought that LeBron James could help Liverpool land Kylian Mbappe.
The basketball star and the Frenchman recently swapped profile pictures on Instagram and the young footballer clearly looks up to the American.
Given the influence of LeBron and the investment coming into FSG, there’s a chance the new partner could play a crucial role in helping the club land a vital target.
