Liverpool's Significant Business after Selling Raheem Sterling

Liverpool superstar Raheem Sterling was awarded the European Golden Boy trophy for his performances in 2013-2014 season.
Since then, the England international has been looking to get a massive contract from the merseysiders and proved to be a constant nuisance for the management.
Highly likely that Sterling will depart this summer and Anfield legend Aldridge believes, Liverpool must sell him.
If Liverpool do get around 50 million pounds from his sale, they must invest the entire amount to reinforce the squad instead of sitting on majority of the money as they did after Suarez’ sale last summer.
Perhaps Reds have already brought direct replacement for Raheem in the form of Brazilian star Roberto Firmino who is arguably a more complete player than the English star.
However, Liverpool must sign two more vital players after selling Sterling if they are to challenge for top prizes next season. First a superstar striker, secondly a versatile midfielder.
Suarez’ absence is still sorely missed and without a top quality goalscorer, Liverpool can forget about getting Champions League place again. Sturridge is top quality but spent most part of last season on treatment table and remains injury prone.
Higuain may prove to be very expensive but someone like Lacazette will be perfect addition. 31 goals in 40 games for Lyon last season, Alexandre is the one striker Reds must sign but may have to challenge Arsenal.
Kovacic might be the most complete midfielder linked with move to Liverpool but he is the most expensive as well. Hernanes is not one for the future and hence must be ignored.
The likely option is Spanish international Asier Illaramendi who has been warming the bench at Real Madrid but has the quality to be hit at Anfield. Liverpool may finally have another Alonso in the squad.
Reds are interested in hiring his servies and must look to secure the signing as soon as possible.
