Liverpool’s chief executive Rick Parry has admitted that the Reds need to strengthen in order to be able to compete on all fronts. Parry recognises that Liverpool’s under achievement in the Premiership can only be rectified by better quality players throughout the squad. To this end, he and Rafael Benitez will be working the whole summer.

Mr Parry said:

"Wherever the best players are, we will be going. We will be looking for players of quality and players who have heart.

"We need lads who are going to battle for 38 matches a season. Our first 11 is fine, but it's when you get below that and you have to battle for points. That's where we have fallen short.

"At the end of the season the league table doesn't lie. We need a better squad, we need more strength and depth.

"How do you improve a team? You get better players of course."
