Whisper it quietly, but it's only 11 weeks until the summer transfer window is open for business.

Despite the shutdown of Premier League action over the ongoing threat of the coronavirus, clubs will be quietly planning ahead, whatever the outcome over the current season.

Such planning does not exclude Liverpool and you can be certain Jurgen Klopp and sporting director Michael Edwards are continuing to plot behind the scenes.

Anfield sources are remaining tight-lipped over the potential of incomings. Understandable with the Reds still battling on to end a 30-year wait for a Premier League crown.

What is known, however, is these final few weeks could be the end for several of Klopp's current crop. Here's what we know so far about summer plans for Liverpool's transfer window.

Wanted back in January by Sevilla and Roma, the Switzerland international is surely expected to attract interest once more.

Just two Premier League starts all season are not enough for a player of Shaqiri's quality, but injuries have restricted him for much of the campaign.

Shaqiri hasn't kicked a ball for over two months and may - like so many others, of course - have played his last minute of a season that has been a frustrating one from a personal perspective.

Attention is likely to resurface again this summer with Liverpool privately indicating that the bidding is open at £25million.

As a 28-year-old, versatile, international-class attacker, Shaqiri is probably to be the subject of much speculation in the summer months.

The right offer could lead to a parting of the ways.

The original Leader of the Press is preparing for pastures new this summer.

The midfielder is into the final few months of his Liverpool contract and the ECHO understands the club are not in discussions over a new deal for a player who will be 32 in May.

Lallana has been an excellent servant to the Reds since joining from Southampton for £25m in 2014 and with the final few years of his playing career upon him, he will head for the exit door in pursuit of more regular football.

Lallana wants first-team action, something that Klopp cannot guarantee him at Anfield and his expected exit leaves a gap in the market for a squad player in the midfield engine room.

Liverpool have proven before under Klopp, with the departures of Alberto Moreno and Daniel Sturridge, that they aren't afraid to allow squad players to leave for nothing and Lallana could become the latest to do just that.

He will leave to plenty of well-wishes and as a Champions League and - in all likelihood - Premier League winner.

Nathaniel Clyne

Right-back Clyne will leave Liverpool when the transfer window opens.

A free agent, the ex-Southampton man will be looking to put a difficult couple of years behind this summer.

Clyne's last run-out for the Reds came back in December 2018 against Arsenal with his most recent start coming earlier that month against Manchester United at Anfield.

A loan move to Bournemouth in January last year didn't result in a permanent deal and the Reds were happy to let him leave in January in an attempt to kick-start his career.

However, no deal was thrashed out and the 2015 signing stayed, happily resuming full training last month after a long-term knee injury sustained last summer.

Clyne will bring an end to a five-year Liverpool stay when his contract expires.

Dejan Lovren

A player whose future is a little less certain than the previous three is Dejan Lovren.

The Croatian centre-back has made just nine starts in the Premier League, though, and is behind Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk in the pecking order.

The Reds also have Joel Matip fit and ready for action too, adding to Lovren's competition for a starting place.

Liverpool were in talks with Roma back in August over the sale of Lovren, only to pull the plug on proceedings after growing frustrated with the Italians during the negotiating process.

At the time, Roma boss Paulo Fonseca viewed Lovren as the perfect signing for his squad following the departure of Kostas Manolas, who joined Napoli for over £30m.

The Reds had placed an asking price of around £14million on a player they signed from Southampton for £20m six years ago and Klopp and his team could once more be open to offers once the window is open.
