Ranking the 12 best squads in football ahead of the 2022/2023 season - Liverpool 3rd

Who has the best squad in world football for the upcoming season?

It’s a question worth considering because this has been a particularly active summer window, especially for Premier League clubs who recently summited the one billion pound mark in transfer expenditure.

Clubs like Tottenham and Arsenal have invested heavily in the top talent from across Europe and so they’ve seen huge upgrades on the position they would have found themseves in last campaign.

We’ve ranked which 12 clubs we feel have the most stacked rosters out there ahead of the 2022/2023 football season. For each club, rather than listing their entire squad, we’ve picked out the key players along with a couple of deputies that detail where the main strengths are in each squad.

As mentioned, Arsenal have invested smartly over the summer. The acquisition of Gabriel Jesus from Man City ought to be a real boost to their attacking output.

And with the Brazilian’s former teammate Oleksandr Zinchenko reportedly set to follow suit and join the Gunners, Mikel Arteta could be sitting with a very strong hand come August.

Goalkeeper: Aaron Ramsdale, Bernd Leno

Defenders: Kieran Tierney, Gabriel, Ben White, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Hector Bellerin, Nuno Tavares

Midfielders: Martin Odegaard, Emile Smith Rowe, Fabio Vieira, Thomas (Partey), Granit Xhaka

Attackers: Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, Eddie Nketiah

So, Inter have re-signed Romelu Lukaku on loan from Chelsea and the question is – which Lukaku are they getting?

If he can return to the same kind of form that saw him bag 30 goals for the Nerazzurri the season before last, well, you can expect Inter to walk the Serie A this season looking at the state of their squad.

Especially with Juventus
