All eyes will be on Anfield prior to the new Premier League season.
Last season, Liverpool won a record-similar 20th League title, and if there were suggestions that the Reds would slowly go in the current summer window, Arne Slot and the Fenway Sports Group crashed that idea by going big in the summer transfer window.
Liverpool had a mixed preseason, in which the Reds won against Athletic Club and Yokohama FM but losing AC Milan, and most recently, the community shield final against Crystal Palace.

Player to pay attention
Liverpool has several star players in his ranks, the most striking is Mohamed Salah, who won the Premier League Golden Boot last season with 29 goals.
However, the majority of the spotlights will be on Florian Wirtz this season, who arrived in Anfield against a British record transfer costs. He was a statement by Liverpool, who clearly indicated that the Reds are going for every big trophy this season for grabbing.
Wirtz was an important gear in Leverkusen’s Bundesliga-title Run under Xabi Alonso, where the team remained unbeaten in Domestic Football and recently won the Germany Player of the Year Award for his exploits.
57 goals and 65 assists in 197 games for Leverkusen is proof that Wirtz is wearing a threat, both as a maker and as a goal scorer, and he should be one of the most important players under the right next season.
