Liverpool have ended their interest in Leeds winger Crysencio Summerville and are turning their attention to Man Utd target Michael Olise, according to reports.
The Reds are set for a summer of change after Jurgen Klopp left the club at the end of the season .
Michael Edwards has returned to as FSG s CEO of football, while Richard Hughes has been appointed as the Premier League club s new sporting director.
Slot will work with the players as the new head coach with Edwards and Hughes likely to make a lot of transfer decisions ahead of the new campaign.
There has already been speculation that Mo Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk s futures could be up in the air after Klopp s decision to leave, with all of their contracts up for renewal.
Other players such as Luis Diaz have also been linked with moves away but the Liverpool recruitment team are focused on additions to give Slot the best possible start as new head coach.
One place they are looking to strengthen is in attacking areas with rumours that a move for Leeds United winger Summerville rumoured to be on the cards.
However, Leeds Live claim that Liverpool have ended their interest in Summerville despite being the early front-runners to sign the player with the Slot appointment no doubt lowering their chances of landing the 22-year-old, who contributed 20 goals and nine assists in the Championship for Leeds last term.
Liverpool have had a close eye on Crystal Palace s Michael Olise for some time now and it s thought that is were their transfer priority lies and the Reds could still have a say on where Summerville goes.
Man Utd and several other Premier League clubs have an interest in Olise after the Frenchman contributed 10 goals and six assists in 19 Premier League appearances.
