JAKARTA - Liverpool has not gotten the most out of their big spending in the summer transfer market due to injuries.
The player who broke the British transfer record, Alexander Isak, came in less than fit, struggling with a minor problem, and is now confirmed to be out for at least two months due to a broken leg.
Center back Giovanni Leoni suffered a knee injury that ended his season in his first appearance. Meanwhile, Jeremie Frimpong only played as a starter in five of 11 matches due to a persistent hamstring problem.
The three players come with a combined transfer value of almost £200m, almost half of the club's spending in the summer transfer window.
"I think a lot of people have talked about the amount of money we have spent. However, unfortunately, not all the money we have spent has been used. It has to do with the injuries of these players," said Slot.
Meanwhile, the new player who is also expensive, Florian Wirtz, is not bothered by injury problems. It's just that his performance hasn't been up to expectations.
He even scored his first goal on Saturday, December 27, 2025, when Liverpool won 2-1 over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the English League.
