Want to play big! In addition to Wilz, Liverpool also has a 100 million euro signing.

How to evaluate Liverpool's 2024-25 season?

won the Premier League title, which was a very successful season.

Liverpool can win the Premier League championship not because of absolute strength, but mainly because its main competitors are not strong and Liverpool, which has relatively stable performance, has a chance. Otherwise, Slot's team will be empty. In the second leg of the Champions League, he was reversed by Paris at home, lost to Newcastle in the League Cup final, and was eliminated by a team at the bottom of the English Championship early.

How can this be said to be a successful season? Or it can be said that Liverpool's current strength is not yet at the level of a top-level team.

2023-24 season, Klopp clearly stated in the middle of the season that he left office. If the lineup is strong enough and the bench depth is thick enough, he will obviously be reluctant to leave. Instead, he still needs to spend a lot of money to revive the lineup, but the boss is known for his stinginess. Klopp has coached Liverpool for nine years, but won a Premier League championship. Slot won the Premier League championship in his first year of coaching Liverpool, and what he took over was the stall left by Klopp.

But next season, it is impossible to be so lucky. Therefore, Liverpool decided to play big this summer.

German midfielder Wilz is close to joining Liverpool. Being able to defeat Bayern, Manchester City and Real Madrid's three strong rivals intercept the Hu, the team building plan and position guarantee are not the decisive factor. Money is the first priority. Liverpool will have to spend at least 100 million euros on the transfer fee of Leverkusen, and may be up to 150 million euros. After Coutinho switched to Barcelona, ​​Liverpool has not had a creative offensive midfielder in the team, and introducing Wiltz is naturally a good signing. But this alone is not enough. Both offense and defense must be repaired.

On the front line, Salah can only rely on one person for a long time, center and left winger. No matter who you use, it will be difficult to use at critical moments. The League Cup final lost to Newcastle, lost to Paris in the second leg of the Champions League 1/8 final, and was eliminated. The defense was inseparable, which was also related to Salah's lack of a second scoring point.

According to German Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg, Liverpool intends to introduce French striker Ekitic in Frankfurt.

190cm tall Ekitic plays as a center forward and is known as the "New Henry" when he debuted. In the summer of 2023, Paris Saint-Germain introduced Ekitic from Reims, with a transfer fee of 28.5 million euros. In Paris, Ekitic did not get any chance and performed averagely. He loaned it to Frankfurt six months later, with a loan fee of 3.5 million euros. He was bought out after the end of the season, with a fee of 16.5 million euros. Paris clearly lost.

But now, Frankfurt wants to make a big profit.

In the 2024-25 season, Ekitic played 48 games for Frankfurt, contributing 22 goals and 12 assists, which made such a very good data. Ekitic's contract with Frankfurt expires in the summer of 2029 and is currently worth 55 million euros.

Florian Plettenberg said that Liverpool coach Slott and sports director Edwards favor Ekitic. Liverpool negotiations have begun, and the current biggest competitor is Chelsea. Frankfurt sports director Marcus Klescher still insists on a transfer fee of 100 million euros.
