Liverpool have announced the signing of Dominik Szoboszlai - and Jamie Carragher has already told Jurgen Klopp which position to target next
Hungarian midfielder Szoboszlai, 21, has joined from German outfit RB Leipzig in a deal worth £60million after the Reds triggered his release clause.
Carragher has already pointed his former club in one direction, having predicted the two midfield acquisitions
Speaking towards the end of Liverpool's below-par 2022-23 campaign, the ex-Anfield stalwart declared on Sky Sports: "I think they need another midfield player at least.
"I think Liverpool will end up getting another two midfield players and I think they'll need another defender as well. Whether that's a centre-back or a full-back remains to be seen. There's a lot of talk whether Liverpool will keep the system they finished the season with and that's really interesting, but I think they'll get another three players in."
according to Carragher, a defender should be what Klopp and co are looking for now that Szoboszlai is signed, sealed and delivered.
According to the Times, Liverpool have drawn up a shortlist of defenders who they'd like to sign. Top of it is another Leipzig player, centre-back Josko Gvardiol, who's been the subject of a world-record bid from Manchester City
Torino's Per Schuurs is another rising star admired by Klopp, having left Ajax last summer. Following an impressive first campaign with the Italian side, the Dutchman now commands a fee of around £25m.
Then comes Marc Guehi of Crystal Palace, who've also been linked with Schuurs in the event that their highly-rated captain departs.
