Liverpool are set for a summer of transition amid numerous changes in the boardroom and in the dugout.
On Friday night, the Reds reportedly struck a deal over Arne Slot, who now looks set to take over from Jurgen Klopp at the end of the season.
FSG, Liverpool’s owners, have also appointed Michael Edwards as CEO of Football and Richard Hughes is set to become the Reds’ director of football this summer.
In terms of the playing squad, there could potentially be changes there too.
A few Reds players out of contract, others – Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold – have 12 months left on their deals, and some may potentially want a chance of scenery.
However, one Liverpool player who has been linked with a move away apparently wants to stay at Anfield and prove himself under the new manager.
The player in question is Ryan Gravenberch, who joined Liverpool just last year in a deal reportedly worth around £34million.
The 21-year-old has been linked with the likes of Galatasaray after a season in which he has been finding his feet and has struggled with some injury issues.
What is Ryan Gravenberch’s stance regarding his Liverpool future?
Despite those links away, Florian Plettenberg has now taken to X to say Gravenberch is happy at Liverpool and isn’t planning to go anywhere.
He wrote: “Ryan Gravenberch currently has no intention of leaving Liverpool in the summer!
“A move to Turkey is not planned. He feels comfortable at LFC and wants to prove himself under the new coach in the upcoming season.
“Contract valid until 2028. 4 goals and 2 assists this season in 35 appearances.”
It’s good to hear that Gravenberch has no intention of leaving Anfield. He’s a top talent and, at 21 years of age, has his whole career ahead of him.
Some players will take to life at a new club, a new league and a new country right away, while others will need a bit more time to acclimatise.
Gravenberch has the skills and talent. He has great technical qualities, moves well with the ball, and he’s physically right for the Premier League.
It’s just a case of developing further and ensuring he can stay in the game for the entirety. No doubt this will come in time.
