The 20-time English champions are expected to delve into the transfer market this summer with a view to improving their squad for the 2024-25 campaign.

Ratcliffe indicated a desire to find emerging talents after stating he wants the club to find the «next Kylian Mbappe» rather than focusing solely on signing established stars.
According to The Sun, Man United's search for talented prospects has led them to identify Dipepa as a potential target.
The 17-year-old has progressed through the youth ranks at Vale Park before making his senior debut in an EFL Trophy clash with Crewe Alexandra in September 2023.
Former Port Vale boss Andy Crosby then presented Dipepa with his first league appearance in December's 1-0 win over Exeter City.
Dipepa has gone to establish himself as a regular fixture in the Port Vale squad, with his performances earning him a call-up to the England Under-17s squad.
The forward came off the bench to score two goals on his debut, helping England to a 5-0 victory in a European Championship qualifier against Northern Ireland earlier this month.
