Liverpool forward super-talent surgery confirmed after signing new contract

Liverpool's attack is set for a major overhaul during the summer transfer window, with Bradley Barcola's £120m+ move from Paris Saint-Germain joining Victor Munoz, the Spain World Cup winner, who arrived from Osasuna for £34m. Plans are underway for further signings, possibly including Ismaila Sarr and Yankuba Minteh before the transfer deadline.

Andoni Iraola is expected to have a rejuvenated front line by the time the window closes. However, not all is positive news for the Reds. Young talent Josh Abe, tipped to become a Mohamed Salah successor, has suffered a shoulder injury requiring surgery. Abe, 16, joined Liverpool on a new contract earlier this summer, beating competition from Manchester City and Real Madrid.

He has previously trained with Liverpool's senior team and was part of their preseason tour to the United States. Despite his injury setback, including a leg injury from international duty last season, Abe is hopeful to make a rapid recovery and return to action soon.
