New Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola has admitted the Reds still need reinforcements in the transfer market, while promising supporters an “intense, aggressive and vertical” style of football as he begins life at Anfield.

According to Reuters, Iraola said Liverpool are working to strengthen the squad before the start of the 2026/27 Premier League season after completing the arrivals of defender Jeremy Jacquet and winger Victor Munoz. The Spaniard acknowledged that more additions are required as the club looks to bounce back from last season’s disappointing fifth-place finish.

“Obviously we’ve signed two players already, but we need more players. We know this. The club is working on this,” Iraola said at his first press conference as Liverpool manager.

“Selfishly, I want the players here from day one for pre-season, but football doesn’t work like that. The club is working hard to get those signings done.”
