Former Liverpool midfielder Jan Molby has recommended that his ex-club should consider acquiring a defensive midfielder to round out their squad reconstruction in the upcoming seasons.
Despite finishing fifth in the previous Premier League season, Liverpool released players like Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, James Milner, and Naby Keita this summer. In their place, the club invested £145 million in signings such as Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch, and Wataru Endo for the 2023/24 season.
During the launch of the Ultimate LFC Experience, Molby expressed his thoughts on the Reds' summer transfer activity. He emphasized that Mac Allister is not a natural defensive midfielder and suggested the need for a player in that position to enhance the team.
"I still think we feel we need possibly another midfielder for the puzzle to fall into place," he said, via Sportskeeda.
"As well as we have done, I'm still searching for what our best midfield three is in terms of combination and balance that you're quite happy to send out to play when you go to Manchester City and Arsenal, our two closest competitors."
