Arne Slot’s Liverpool side have been immense this season, and the Dutchman has done an excellent job in filling the hole left by the departure of Jurgen Klopp.

When Klopp announced he would be leaving the club in January many supporters worried that a period of decline would follow, but this hasn’t been the case so far.

Klopp has already been busy with his new role however and Red Bull were recently involved in the takeover of Paris FC, although the principal owners are the Arnault family - one of the richest families in the world.

Liverpool have enjoyed a massively successful start to the season, and Arne Slot has been able to get the most out of the majority of his squad.

This season hasn’t been a success story for the entirety of Liverpool’s squad however, and Slot’s only summer addition is one of the players who has really struggled.

Federico Chiesa joined Liverpool at the end of August and has struggled since swapping Turin for Merseyside.

An recent transfer rumour has reared its head again in the form of Ajax defender Devyne Rensch.

A new report by CaughtOffside says that Liverpool are again scouting the 21-year old whose to his contract expiring next summer.

The Dutchman was linked to Liverpool around the time of the last January transfer window, and Anfield Watch’s own report stated that, “The big draw with Rensch is his ability to play multiple positions at such a young age. It's a trait you usually associate with veterans - players with the experience to carry over into several roles.”

Not even halfway through his maiden season as Liverpool boss, Arne Slot has shown his credentials as a coach not to be underestimated.

Liverpool find themselves leading the way in the Premier League as rivals Manchester City and Arsenal have started their season out of form, and the Reds also sit at the top of the Champions League group phase.

This is all despite the side making very little business in the transfer window after Jurgen Klopp left last season, although the club have been extraordinarily busy behind the scenes in the months that followed.

After Anfield Watch exclusively revealed yesterday that Liverpool are in the hunt for Paris Saint Germain wonderkid Desire Doue, we spoke to footballtransfers.com French football expert Robin Brainer to get the lowdown on the situation.

While Liverpool remain dominant on the pitch, starting this season under Arne Slot better than they have done in any previous season in the club's history, the urge to make new signings still lingers.

This summer was noticeably quiet, with just Federico Chiesa coming through the door, who has been predominantly injured during his stay so far, while Giorgi Mamardashvili is not set to arrive until next season as part of a condition of his transfer.

But the urge to bring in new additions remains, especially in the forward areas, while Mohamed Salah is at risk of leaving at the end of the season should his contract run down, so the scouts have been looking at possible replacements.
