Still seeking further additions, Liverpool have now reportedly submitted an opening offer to sign a 16-year-old gem as well as one other young star who's been compared to Morgan Rogers.
Liverpool's 2026 transfer targets
Whilst their bank balance may still be recovering from their £400m spending spree in the summer, Liverpool are already thinking about potential 2026 targets for Arne Slot and his side. Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes, even after breaking Liverpool's transfer record twice, are far from done with their project.
Following a recent dip in form - losing three consecutive games in all competitions - questions have been asked about Slot's reign for the first time and questions that could be answered by using the transfer market.
It's clear, for example, that the Reds need a centre-back. Unless anything changes between now and the summer, Liverpool will lose Ibrahima Konate on a free deal following the end of his contract. That will leave them with just three senior centre-backs - Joe Gomez, Virgil van Dijk and young Giovanni Leoni.
Given that Van Dijk is on course to leave in 2027, Gomez is injury-prone and Leoni will be coming off the back of his own lengthy spell on the sidelines, those at Anfield are likely to turn towards the market for reinforcement in that area.
On that front, Marc Guehi is still a name that Liverpool will reportedly look to sign after coming within hours of securing his arrival in the summer. This time around, however, they'll need backup options with the Crystal Palace defender also attracting interest from the likes of Real Madrid as his contract ticks down.

Before then, Edwards and Hughes have reportedly set their sights on the future of Slot's side with reports suggesting that Liverpool have submitted an offer to sign an impressive young duo.
Liverpool submit offer to sign Palmer twins
As reported by The Boot Room's Graeme Bailey, Liverpool have now submitted an offer to sign Anton and Bailey Palmer. The 16-year-old twins have recently announced their decision to leave Middlsborough and have not been short of options ever since.
Alongside Liverpool, they've reportedly received offers from Manchester City, Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. To say that they've got a big decision to make would be a major understatement.
Both are incredibly impressive young players. Anton, a midfield gem, pushed through at Boro to make two appearances in the Premier League 2, whilst Bailey - also a midfielder - has received comparisons to Aston Villa's Rogers.
After winning the race to sign Salford's Will Wright in the summer, Liverpool should push all the way to beat Man City and others to sign the Palmer twins.
