Liverpool’s senior players had a busy summer of international action, with 19 seeing minutes on the pitch and four making major finals.
Every player in Arne Slot‘s side can now say that their 2023/24 campaign is over following the conclusion of Copa America and the Euros.
Alexis Mac Allister was the only Red to lift a trophy, but Luis Diaz, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez all walked away with a runners-up medal, while Darwin Nunez earned a bronze.
Pre-season is already underway at the AXA Training Centre, but a busy summer of international action ensures many will not report back until August, merely weeks before the league opener.
Across the entire summer, Liverpool’s players combined for 5,600 minutes of friendly and competitive action – but who played the most, who topped the scoresheet and who laid on the most assists?
