Liverpool are preparing to refresh Arne Slot’s squad in the summer and are open to offloading as many as five players.

Liverpool are currently cruising their way to a 20th top flight title as Arne Slot’s team lead Arsenal by a substantial gap of 15 points.

But the Reds remain ready to back their manager during the next transfer window with new signings and selling players who are deemed surplus to requirements.

However, some of the players who Slot is prepared to part ways with may raise some eyebrows amongst Liverpool supporters.

Liverpool ready to sell five players this summer

Liverpool are preparing for an ‘exciting’ summer transfer window as they plan to reshape Arne Slot’s squad, according to Florian Plettenberg.

The Merseyside club are ready to make several key new additions but that will involve the potential departures of around five players.

Liverpool’s list of players they are prepared to offload includes Caoimhin Kelleher, Wataru Endo, Harvey Elliott, Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota.

Kelleher and Chiesa leaving Anfield this summer won’t come as much of a surprise to many Liverpool fans, but there will be question marks if Endo, who cost Liverpool £16m, Elliott and Jota were sold.

Kelleher is wanted by Chelsea and Newcastle, meanwhile, Chiesa has been linked with a return to Italy.

Liverpool must keep hold of Wataru Endo, Harvey Elliott, and Diogo Jota

Slot has labelled Endo as an ‘important’ player for his Liverpool team and he is right with the midfielder proving to be a key in helping close out matches.

Endo is becoming a leader behind the scenes and appears to be well respected in the Liverpool dressing room, so to sell him would be a mistake.

Elliot proved his worth to Slot’s squad with his winning goal against Paris Saint-Germain in the first-leg and at 21, he still has so much room for improvement.

Jota wanting to leave would be understandable given his struggles to break into the team, however, his importance off the bench remains high.
