Glaring need for Reds to fix back problems

Wirtz gives glimpse of technical excellence and Ngumoha shows level of talent beyond his years

- 

Seven and still going. Having been starved in recent years of new arrivals to the first-team squad, Liverpool supporters have been gorging on this summer's record-breaking spending splurge.

The hunger, though, has never been greater for what they hope will be the next arrival as the Reds consider a sensational swoop for wantaway Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak.

But the fear nagging away at the back of the minds of fans amid all the fresh faces is that Liverpool are in danger of leaving Arne Slot short in a key area following the £35million sale of centre-back Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen.
