Liverpool is prioritizing the recruitment of wide attackers this summer following the departure of Mohamed Salah. The team faces urgent needs, particularly in attack and midfield, as they plan for the next season. Federico Chiesa may leave, and leading scorer Hugo Ekitike is expected to miss significant time with injury. Liverpool aims to enhance their midfield after struggling against stronger opponents, while the center-back position remains a concern after Ibrahima Konate's exit. Kostas Tsimikas will likely continue in his supporting role without immediate plans to sign a left-back.
