Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alexis Mac Allister and Szoboszlai could team up in midfield at Liverpool next season. Arnold has established himself as one of the best full-backs in the Premier League. Jurgen Klopp decided to use Arnold at full-back mid-season and the England international has flourished in the new role.
Arnold is often criticized for his poor defensive ability, defensive errors being a big problem for him but the Liverpool manager helped Trent Alexander-Arnold quell the criticism. England manager Gareth Southgate used Arnold in midfield in a 4-3-3 formation in the 4-0 win over Malta. Not only did Trent Alexander-Arnold score a brilliant goal, but he was also one of the best players on the pitch throughout the game. Alexis Mac Allister has also established himself as one of the best midfielders in the Premier League while Szoboszlai was arguably one of the best in the Bundesliga before moving to Liverpool for 70 million euros.
Mason Mount is expected to form a partnership in midfield with Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro at Manchester United next season.
Martin Odegaard, Declan Rice and Kai Havertz will form a midfield partnership at Arsenal next season. The Gunners spent £105m to sign Rice from West Ham. Kai Havertz has joined Arsenal for a fee of £65m. Odegaard was one of the best midfielders in the Premier League last season. Declan Rice established himself as one of the best defensive midfielders in the world when he helped West Ham win the Europa Conference League last season.
Kai Havertz has also impressed in form since joining the Premier League but did not perform well last season for Chelsea. He is expected to regain his form at the Emirates Stadium next season.

Tottenham striker Richarlison admits he upset former manager Antonio Conte last season.
Richarlison went crazy after being knocked out of the Champions League by AC Milan. He said his season was "s***" due to "missing minutes".
Now he told the Que Papinho podcast:
"I made the mistake of giving an interview that I needed [game] time.
"I then apologized and said he could punish me. He scolded me to prove he was the commander. That's how he deals with it.
"Almost two hours yelling at me in front of everyone there."
