'Add quality from a position of strength' - McNulty
- Published
Liverpool's decision to spend £100m - and potentially £116m - on Florian Wirtz after being crowned champions is following the methods that served them well in the glory days of old.
The great Anfield figures of the past always insisted the way to sustain success was to add quality from a position of strength rather than chase expensive arrivals to cure weaknesses.
And Liverpool's position could not be much stronger after winning their 20th title.
It is also a vindication of the policy of keeping their powder dry financially last summer, when many supporters wanted Liverpool to go into the markets, especially after a deal for Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi collapsed.
Liverpool won the Premier League in Arne Slot's first season and now have the resources and pull to sign one of Europe's most sought after young stars.
