Liverpool prepares for life without Jurgen Klopp after nearly 10 years. Taking over for German strategist is Arne Slot.

The new Dutch coach will see the squad he takes over reduce its personnel, as the club confirmed the departure of 10 players.

Thiago Alcantara and Joel Matip are the two most notable names leaving Anfield due to their contracts expiring.

Matip joined Liverpool in the summer of 2016 on a free transfer. During 8 years with the Red Brigade, the Cameroonian midfielder played 201 matches.

Thiago joined the club from Bayern Munich for a fee of 20 million pounds in 2020. However, the Spanish star continuously struggled with persistent injuries.

In the 2023/24 season, Thiago only appeared on the field for only 5 minutes. Although he is often injured, Thiago is receiving great attention from teams in the Saudi Pro League .

They include Adam Lewis, Melchizedek Frauendorf, Mateusz Musialowski, Nathan Giblin, Francis Gyimah, Luke Hewitson, Niall Osborne and Cody Pennington.

Coach Arne Slot entered the pre-season with many worries about the attack, in the context that both Salah and Darwin Nunez could leave.

The star known as the Polish Lionel Messi, Mateusz Musialowski has been confirmed to leave Liverpool when his contract expires this summer. The Polish youth international made his debut for Liverpool in March, as a substitute against Sparta Praha, after arriving at the club in 2020. Musialowski is one of 10 players set to leave Liverpool next month , along with Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara.

Musialowski was once known as the “Polish Messi”, he signed for Liverpool from SMS Lodz, where he scored 133 goals in 88 matches at youth level. This 20-year-old player joined Liverpool with great expectations but now he has to leave.

Musialowski’s impressive scoring record combined with his low center of gravity and dribbling ability has earned the youngster comparisons to Argentina legend Lionel Messi . Musialowski made five appearances for the Polish U-21 team, as well as representing Liverpool U-18 and U-21 teams.

Musialowski appeared 14 times for the Liverpool youth team in the 2023/24 season, scoring 6 goals and providing 2 assists. Although opportunities in Liverpool’s first team are difficult to come by, that hasn’t stopped transfer speculation coming his way.

Meanwhile, Liverpool is still negotiating to extend contracts with several players, including the club’s youth academy duo Jacob Poytress and Reece Trueman, along with veteran goalkeeper Adrian.
