liverpool Now eyeing summer transfers to achieve ‘brilliance’ Premier League

Reds eye summer signings after January lull

The January transfer window has been quiet despite the late move for Jeremy Jacquet, who will join the centre-back from Rennes at the end of the season. Arne Slaughter

With Jacquet not due until the summer, fans may have to temper their expectations based on Slott’s comments as the Merseysiders fail to make any improvements in attack.
