Newsround with Dave Davis continues with attention turning towards the major squad-building decisions awaiting Liverpool's newly appointed sporting director Julian Ward.
Dave assesses the positions requiring attention, with both full-back areas and midfield emerging as potential priorities. Lamine Camara features prominently as a player who could suit Andoni Iraola's Liverpool, while Dave considers whether Monaco's circumstances could create an opportunity for the Reds.
There is also discussion around potential departures. Federico Chiesa could consider leaving Liverpool in January in search of regular football and a route back into the Italy squad, with his non-homegrown status adding another dimension to Liverpool's squad planning.
Further transfer talk includes young Boca Juniors prospect Thomas Aranda, while Dave pours cold water on suggestions of a move for Aurélien Tchouaméni, citing the potential fee, wages and the midfielder's situation at Real Madrid. The continuing speculation involving Florian Wirtz and Michael Olise also comes under the microscope.
Plus, Dave discusses the Manchester City case, Kostas Tsimikas' international performance and Iraola joining Ward at Anfield to support Liverpool Women. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
