Liverpool aiming to offload up to 10 fringe players as Klopp aims to cull first-team squad

Liverpool are aiming to offload a number of fringe players over the summer as Jurgen Klopp looks to trim his squad ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

That includes Nat Phillips and Sheyi Ojo, who are attracting interest from Championship club Nottingham Forest as they look to strengthen their squad having narrowly missed out on a play-off spot last season.

And having sold full-back Matty Cash to Aston Villa in a deal worth £16 million ($21m), Sabri Lamouchi’s side are ready to step up their efforts ahead of the new campaign.

Forest have expressed strong interest in signing Phillips, but face competition from a host of other Championship clubs, including Bristol City, Middlesbrough, Stoke, Millwall and Swansea.
