As the January transfer window winds down, clubs are now able to negotiate with players whose contracts are up at the end of the current season, provided they aren't from the same domestic league.
Last year saw several big names swap the Premier League for pastures new, including former Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold and ex-Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne, who joined Real Madrid and Napoli, respectively.
And now in 2026, we could see more superstars plotting a free transfer come the summer.
The Reds are in a familiar predicament, with Ibrahima Konate's future up in the air amid interest from multiple European giants, while players like experienced Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski and Bayern Munich winger Serge Gnabry remain without contract extensions.
Below, FootballWhispers takes a look at who is currently set to become a free agent at the end of the season.
