Liverpool decide against making any transfers and turn down a deadline day offer following six departures.

Liverpool made no signings in the January transfer window, with Arne Slot content with his current squad at Anfield.

The Reds’ only addition last summer was Federico Chiesa, but the Italian has played a limited role as Slot continues to get the best out of the squad he inherited from Jurgen Klopp. With few gaps to fill, Liverpool focused on performances rather than recruitment. However, while they retained all key players despite transfer links, they allowed several departures.

Speculation surrounded high-profile exits, particularly Real Madrid’s pursuit of Trent Alexander-Arnold. The right-back has yet to sign a new contract, making a free transfer increasingly likely. Liverpool rejected Real’s £20 million bid, but the Spanish giants are expected to continue their efforts to lure him.

Mohamed Salah’s future remains uncertain, with Saudi clubs—especially Al-Hilal—keen on securing his signature, though no deal materialized. Darwin Nunez was also linked with a Middle East move, but Liverpool opted to retain him, likely reassessing options in the summer.

On deadline day, Middlesbrough attempted to sign academy talent Tyler Morton, but no agreement was reached, keeping him at Anfield. Meanwhile, three players left on loan: Stefan Bajcetic joined Las Palmas, Kaide Gordon moved to Portsmouth, and Calvin Ramsay returned to Scotland with Kilmarnock. Dominic Corness will spend the rest of the season at Gillingham.

Liverpool sanctioned two permanent exits on free transfers, with goalkeeper Marcelo Pitaluga joining Fluminense and Welsh U21 international Thomas Hill signing for Harrog

ate Town.
