David McCarthy: More than likely. I reckon if he gets acceptable bids for Ianis Hagi, Glen Kamara and Ben Davies, they'll be off. And if Borna Barisic doesn't extend his deal, they could take cash for him as well. Fraser Wilson: Glen Kamara is the obvious one given the heights the midfielder reached under Steven Gerrard a couple of seasons ago. His time seems to be up. Antonio Colak would be a big loss. The striker guarantees goals but seems out of favour under Beale. Andy Newport: He certainly needs to clear some more of the deadwood out but having already waved goodbye to the likes of Ryan Kent, Alfredo Morelos and Allan McGregor I don't think Beale will be keen to lose any more big names. Glen Kamara and Scott Wright look the most likely to be leaving.
