Liverpool fans can enjoy their summer basking in the glory of the Reds’ sixth European Cup, but there will also be that longing for the football to return. Here are the key dates this summer.
It won’t be long until most of the squad are returning to Melwood, ready to go again as Jurgen Klopp‘s side compete for an incredible seven trophies in 2019/20.
Two Reds will be with Brazil at the Copa America, while a trio of Liverpool players will also be at the Africa Cup of Nations, but other than that, the rest of the squad should return for a full pre-season.
