The Reds are already Premier League champions but the club's recruitment team has an eye on the future.
They know that Arne Slot has inherited a squad that's largely not his but Jurgen Klopp's. Now Hughes and Edwards have made it their mission to build a team in the Dutchman's image.

This involves bringing in players who are more suited to Slot's style of play. The first of those arrivals will be Jeremie Frimpong, who has already been confirmed as Liverpool's first signing of the summer.
Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez both only 22-years-old and 21-years-old respectively are a part of that future vision as well.
And they are not alone. Liverpool have signed another future prospect this summer.

The club confirmed the arrival of Armin Pecsi on their official website. Only 20-years-old, Pecsi is a surprising arrival at Anfield.
He is a player not many expected the Reds to sign, partly because he is a relatively unknown figure in European football.
But it's a shrewd signing for an under the radar gem, who Liverpool believe has long-term potential to be the first choice goalkeeper at the club.
We know Liverpool have big future plans for Pecsi but the club did not reveal just how long of a contract he had signed at Liverpool.
Now this has been confirmed by his agent.
Pecsi's agent, Matyas Esterhazy, who also represents Dominik Szoboszlai, gave a detailed interview to M4 Sport and revealed the length of the contract the Hungarian goalkeeper has signed with the club.
The reporter asked what the length of Pecsi's contract was.
"Five years," Esterhazy confirmed.
Esterhazy also went onto explain the plan for Pecsi at the Reds next season.
"Armin will be at Liverpool next season," he said.
"This was one of the most important links in our decision. We chose Liverpool because they outlined a professional plan that we can identify with, and Armin is a very intelligent, patient and ambitious player."
Five years is a long deal to give to a 20-year-old goalkeeper. However, it just goes to show the level of commitment from the Reds.

They signed Pecsi for the long-term and they will hope their investment pays off in the coming years. It's another example of Hughes not only buying players for the present but for the future as well.
