Four Liverpool players have three months to save their career or risk being cast aside

Liverpool splashed the cash over the summer as part of their rebuild, and there is no reason to believe that the shakeup will not continue in the January transfer window. The Reds have made an unbeaten start to the Premier League season, and further investment may be required if they are in a position to push for the title. Jurgen Klopp conducted a major overhaul of his midfield ranks over the summer, bringing in Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch and Wataru Endo. As a result, several veteran stars were allowed to depart – such as James Milner – with the exits of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson also facilitated. Liverpool were expected to bolster their defensive ranks before the transfer window concluded too, and they could achieve that goal in the January transfer window. Further additions should not be ruled out either, though they could be acquired as replacements for those who have been allowed to leave the club. Express Sport takes a look at three stars that have three months to prove their worth to Klopp or risk being moved on… Thiago Alcantara Despite interest from Saudi Arabian outfits and Turkish sides, Liverpool opted to retain the services of Thiago. The Spaniard has not featured for the club so far this season due to injury problems, and he must stay fit if he is to have a future at Anfield. The ex-Bayern Munich star’s contract expires at the end of the season and the Reds could be tempted to try and earn a fee for his services in January if they opt not to hand him a new deal.
