Arne Slot had a sensational job at Liverpool during his first campaign at the helm, creating a seamless transition after taking over from Jurgencrop last summer.
Their latest victory over Tottenham Hotspur secured a second Premier League title in four games, highlighting the impressive work Dutchman has implemented.
The endured success was even more impressive considering the fact that it was added last summer in the form of Federico Chiesa, which was featured only for 33 leagues in 2024/25.
However, if you build on Slot’s second season’s achievements, you’ll need to add to strengthen your team and inject more quality into key areas of the pitch.
With titles secured, attention is undoubtedly shifting to the moving window, with numerous names already thrown into the mix via a switch to Anfield.
Latest news on the hunt for new attackers in Liverpool
Recently, it has been revealed that Liverpool is one of the Premier League clubs in the Atalanta Winger Adamora Lookman race during the summer window.
The Nigerian who scored 18 goals for the campaign has also been praised by Chelsea and Manchester United.
But despite his interest in services, French outlet L’Equipe said the Reds also moved to Monaco’s 20-year-old forward Eliche Ben Seguil, giving him an approach.
The report also states that the slot side is paying attention to his progress in League One. Manchester City is also caught up in the competition to land internationally in Morocco.
He also states that he is unhappy with his current outfit.
Why Liverpool’s target will be upgraded by Luis Dias
After joining in January 2022, there was a lot of hope for Winger Louis Diaz to succeed, especially after leaving Merseyside just a few months after Sadio Manet arrived.
He has managed to score 40 goals in his previous 145 appearances, but frustration has grown around the Colombian in recent months, leading to rumors about his future with the club.
Barcelona was recently recognized as interested in signing the 28-year-old, whose current contract expires in the summer of 2027, but has still managed to extend his stay in Merseyside.
This situation could lead to Ben Seguil’s move in the coming months, offering an upgrade to the previous Porto Ace, adding a new dimension to the already impressive frontline.
Labeled as a future “£100 million” star by athletic euro experts, the Moroccan may have registered fewer goals and assists, but he manages more progressive carry per 90 people, highlighting the threat he poses in the attacking area.
How will Bensegil compare to Diaz in 2024/25? | ||
|---|---|---|
Statistics (per 90) | I’m Segil | Diaz |
The game has been played | 30 | 33 |
Goals and Assistance | 9 | 17 |
Progressive Pass | 6.5 | 4.1 |
Progressive Carry | 4.5 | 4.1 |
I’ll bring it to the last third | 4.5 | 2.1 |
Take-on attempted | 4.9 | 4.4 |
The foul won | 2.9 | 1.2 |
The air won | 37% | 26% |

Ben Segill was also able to achieve a higher tally for Take-On, but won the air duel he entered, offering an excellent all-around option within the last third.
His talent doesn’t stop there, winning a foul around 90, completing a more progressive pass, demonstrating his relentless athletic ability.
At just 20 years old, he has the ability and potential to transform into a current elite level talent and has all the tools to back up the Euro experts’ predictions about his future at the top level of professional games.
It is unclear how Diaz is heading into the summer, but if the Monaco gem moves mean that a contract is not agreed, the club can win cash.
