Liverpool aces Bobby Clark and Trey Nyoni have reacted after one of their teammates was tied down to a new long-term contract.
Arne Slot has largely focused on outgoings at Liverpool, with the Reds yet to sign anyone in the summer transfer window.
Clark is close to a Liverpool exit, but Nyoni looks set to play a role this season after starring against Sevilla in pre-season.
Liverpool are ‘seriously considering’ another signing after missing out on Martin Zubimendi, with the midfielder having looked like being Slot’s first incoming.
But it wasn’t meant to be, with the Spain international deciding to remain at hometown club Real Sociedad.
