Even though the summer transfer window isn't even open yet, several rumours have already started to emerge about Liverpool's summer plans.
However, even though both of those voids will need to be filled, there are also a couple of other areas within Arne Slot's ranks that could do with upgrading.
This lack of knowing has resulted in several players, including Elliot Anderson, being linked with a transfer.
However, it now seems like a fresh midfield target has emerged from Anfield instead of the Englishman.

Lamine Camara is the latest player to be linked with a Liverpool switch
The Senegal international has been one of Ligue 1's best midfielders this term and, since he's only 22 years old, there's still plenty of time for him to grow into an even better player than he already is.
His natural position is as a number six but, every now and then, he's been handed free-reign to try and get AS Monaco forward and has become the key link between their midfield and attack.
And now, it seems like Liverpool are being told to throw everything they can at him to try and get a deal over the line.
That is, according to journalist Bence Bocsak who believes that Camara should be Liverpool's main midfield target this summer.
“For me, I think he [Camara] is the target that Liverpool should be looking at when it comes to their midfield,” he said on the Anfield Watch Podcast.
“He’s likely not going to cost Liverpool £100 million, he’s probably be around maybe the €50 million to €60 million price tag so that translates to like £45 million to £50 million.
“That’s a lot more of a reasonable fee, especially for such a young midfielder.”
Lamine Camara would be a safe option for Liverpool
Even though Camara may have never played Premier League football, the fact that he'd only cost around £50 million is certainly a major selling point.
The Senegal international is probably going to be one of the most sought-after midfielders in the world this summer due to his price tag and the recent performances he's been putting in.
Granted, £50 million may still feel a tad steep but in this day and age, that's about the average price a decent midfielder will cost you.
However, signing Camara wouldn't make much sense for the Reds unless someone such as Mac Allister or Jones was moved on.
But, even then, most Liverpool fans would probably want to see Jones given a bit more of a prominent role before moving him on and splashing another hefty chunk of change on a midfielder.
Nobody knows how Liverpool's first-team squad will look next season but, if even half of the rumours being spread about Liverpool's transfer window come to fruition, they could end up with an entirely new look team once again which is why every penny counts.
