The summer transfer window is officially open! Premier League clubs are going to be really busy looking for players to strengthen their squads before the new season kicks off on August 16. But the big question is: who needs what? And how are they planning to tackle these issues? TNT Sports has highlighted one key position each team really ought to focus on over the next few months.
So, with this transfer window swinging wide open, let’s dive into what every Premier League team might want to consider addressing before the deadline on September 1. In our first part, we took a look at the needs of clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Crystal Palace.
Leeds – Goalkeeper
Now, let’s talk about Leeds. Illan Meslier has been their go-to guy in goal for a few years, but it looks like his days as the number one might be numbered. The club might be on the hunt for a new keeper this summer. I mean, sure, he had a decent run in the Championship, but he made quite a few mistakes that led to goals. They can’t forget how tough things were for him and the team when they were last in the Premier League, letting in goals left and right.
Manchester City – Goalkeeper
Over at Manchester City, Pep Guardiola’s crew has already made some moves in the transfer market, trying to fix up their squad after a season that didn’t meet their high expectations. But here’s the kicker: they still haven’t sorted out the goalkeeper situation. Ederson’s future at the Etihad is still a bit up in the air.
Liverpool – Spending Big
Remember when Liverpool last won the league? They splashed over £70 million to beef up their squad. Well, this time around, they might spend even more, with one of their top targets costing them a pretty penny all on its own. They’ve been pretty dominant in the league, but even the best teams need a refresh now and then to stay on top.
After a quieter summer in 2024 — which our sources hinted at since February — it looks like Anfield could see a record-breaking transfer window this year. They’ve already secured their first signing: Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen for £29.5 million. He’s coming in as a right-back to cover for Trent Alexander-Arnold. So, who's next on their list?
While grabbing that right-back was crucial, don’t sleep on the left-back situation either. Andy Robertson, back in his prime, paired up with Alexander-Arnold to form one of the most lethal full-back duos in football. But, honestly, he’s seen a dip in form during the 2024-25 season. Liverpool's definitely on the lookout for an upgrade there.
