Seven players, including two for £87 million, might leave Liverpool in the first week of February.

As we consider who players might depart Anfield in the January transfer window, Liverpool transfer news is provided

In a week, the January transfer window will open

And whether Jurgen Klopp will be active in the market, at least in terms of incomings, is still up in the air. During Klopp’s reign, Liverpool has not been very active in the winter window, though they are not opposed to the appropriate deals

The Reds swooped in to sign Luis Diaz last year for a price that may have reached £50 million, and in 2018, they paid £75 million to sign Virgil van Dijk

According to Klopp, he will sign players if they are the right fit and Liverpool are willing to relocate. The Reds are currently just sixth in the Premier League standings, and many supporters believe new additions are necessary to guarantee Liverpool finishes in the Champions League spots

Klopp may not only be paying attention to incomings, though. Players might leave Anfield, either permanently or temporarily on loan

Here is a list of prospective departures

1. Naby Keita
The midfielder’s contract ends in the summer, so Liverpool might try to get a good price if they’re given one. Due to injuries, Keita, who cost £52 million to acquire in 2018, has been a mixed bag throughout his time at Anfield. Linked reports mention AC Milan

 

2. Nat Phillips: loan or long-term hire
In the hierarchy, the center-back is picked fifth. Phillips joined Bournemouth on loan in January of last year, which Klopp permitted, but Liverpool may be looking to make a profit

3. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, a long-term player
Another summertime unemployed person. Oxlade-Chamberlain has had a difficult time staying healthy this year and hasn’t started a Premier League game since February. In 2017, a versatile England international was bought for £35 million

 

4. Adrian – long-term
According to ESPN, the backup goalie may depart in January
