A big summer at Liverpool beckons, with Jurgen Klopp needing to oversee a quick rebuild if the Reds are to compete for major honours in 2023/24.

It was a season of disappointment as the Reds came ever so close to completing the quadruple in 2021/22. A myriad of factors have played roles in the club's demise in 2022/23, with shrewd recruitment required this summer.

Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai have already have arrived from Brighton and RB Leipzig respectively as new faces on board for the club's pre-season tour.

Here's what we know about the Reds' summer plans so far.


Where are Liverpool going for 2023/24 pre-season?

Klopp revealed most of his squad would return from their holidays on Saturday 8 July before those on international duty come back on Tuesday 11 July.

Liverpool's pre-season begins with a training camp in Germany where the 2020 Premier League champions will play two matches against opposition from the nation's second tier; Karlsruher SC and Greuther Furth. On the club's last trip to Germany for pre-season back in 2017, Liverpool were ordered to pay €3,000 for damages caused to a press tent.

The Reds then jet off to Singapore to compete in the Festival of Football. Liverpool are scheduled to face Leicester City and Bayern Munich in the same stadium where they beat Crystal Palace last year to claim the snappily named Standard Chartered Singapore Trophy.

Liverpool v Darmstadt 98

Deepdale Stadium, England

Bayern Munich and Darmstadt 98, Liverpool's last two opponents of the summer, are the only top flight clubs Klopp's side will face this pre-season.

Karlsruher and Greuther Furth finished seventh and 12th respectively in the German second division, at least 20 points behind the promotion spots. Klopp is no stranger to 2. Bundesliga, spending his entire playing career with Mainz 05 below Germany's top flight - it was only when Klopp became manager that the club won its first-ever promotion.

The clash with Karlsruher provided six goals as the Reds ran out 4-2 winners, though only Diogo Jota's late double ensured the victory. Darwin Nunez opened the scoring early on before Lars Stindl and Sebastian Jung struck to put the German side ahead. Cody Gakpo equalised before Jota got his brace in added time.

A 4-4 draw with Greuther Furth provided even more nonsense. Luis Diaz's effort was the only goal of the first half before things exploded after the break.

Julian Green's equaliser was quickly struck off by two Nunez efforts, only for Lukas Petkov and Armindo Sieb to square the game at 3-3. Sieb's second looked to have won the game for Greuther Furth, but Mohamed Salah grabbed Liverpool's fourth in the 89th minute.

Next opponents Leicester finished 33 points and 13 places below Liverpool in the Premier League last season, losing home and away against the Reds on their way out of the top flight.

Liverpool will then duke it out with Thomas Tuchel's Bundesliga champions before a final outing with Darmstadt at Deepdale.


Liverpool pre-season 2023/24 squad

Liverpool named a 32-player squad for a training camp in Germany. Fabinho, a transfer target for Al Ittihad, has been left out as his departure draws ever closer.

New signings Mac Allister and Szoboszlai make the cut, as does Jordan Henderson who is another Reds star linked with a move to the Middle East.
