Liverpool ended the Janaury transfer window with no new additions to Arne Slot's squad. The Reds were linked with the likes of Santiago Gimenez and Stefanos Tzimas, but neither player moved to Anfield.

Slot's team, however, are well placed to end the season with silverware success. Liverpool currently sit six points clear as Premier League leaders, with a game in hand over second-placed Arsenal. The Reds are also still competing in Europe and both domestic cups.

And the departure of young goalkeeper Fabian Mrozek has been confirmed following Monday's deadline. Mrozek, who spent the previous season with Swedish club IF Brommapojkarna, has joined join National League side Forest Green Rovers.

The 21-year-old joined Liverpool's academy in 2020 from FC Wroclaw and is a Poland youth international. He has previously been included in the matchday squad for the senior team at Anfield but has yet to make his debut.

Mrozek was on the bench last season for Europa League matches against Royale Union Saint-Gilloise and Sparta Praha, but will now experience senior football at Forest Green.

Elsewhere, reporter David Lynch has claimed that Liverpool are monitoring Girona defender Miguel Gutierrez as a potential replacement for Andy Robertson. The 23-year-old Spaniard is a product of Real Madrid's academy and is reportedly seen as a potential alternative to Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez.

Gutierrez is valued at €27.6million (around £22m). However, Girona belong to the City Group, the same group that owns Liverpool's rivals Manchester City so it is unclear whether they would do business with the Reds.
