Liverpool's manager Andoni Iraola has expressed concerns about his squad's depth on the wings as they prepare for the season. He indicated that the team currently lacks sufficient wide players but remains optimistic about finding a resolution.

In related transfer news, Brighton has rejected a £60 million bid from Liverpool for winger Yankuba Minteh. This marks the second offer Liverpool has made within a short period, both of which have been turned down.
