Liverpool will begin their new season with a heated match against Crystal Palace, scheduled to take place at the historic Wembley Stadium in London, in the 2025 Community Shield.
The Reds won the Premier League title last season with a resounding victory, and the club’s management has been providing significant support to manager Arne Slot during the summer transfer window. This includes renewing the contracts of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, and eventually signing Florian Wirtz, the most expensive signing in English history, for a reported €150 million.
Liverpool must demonstrate their capabilities after their recent reinforcements, and there is no doubt that facing Crystal Palace is the ideal choice for Salah and his teammates, especially since the London club, the FA Cup champions, is a strong force and will never be an easy opponent.
