Arne Slot takes aim at pundits: Liverpool boss hits back at criticism of £450million transfer spree from Gary Neville and Co - who 'favour other clubs'

Arne Slot has hit back at pundits 'favouring other clubs' who have criticised Liverpool's incredible summer spending spree.

After winning the Premier League last term, the Reds splashed out a whopping £450million during the transfer window on eight new recruits.

They smashed their record transfer twice, first with the £110m signing of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen and later with the addition of Alexander Isak from Newcastle for a fee worth £125m.

It's hoped that such a spend will help Liverpool get over the line in their pursuit of the Champions League, a competition they haven't won since 2019.
