In three days’ time the January transfer window opens. Safe to say there will be not be major calls for Liverpool to make signings. After all, the Reds currently sit top of the Premier League, top of the Champions League and are through to the Carabao Cup semi-finals. So, if any purchases are to be made, they will have to have the quality to make their mark on a Liverpool squad that as well as currently sweeping asides all comers, could be back to full strength by the time of Manchester United’s visit to Anfield on January 5. Regardless, it’s…
The former Man United team-mates fought in Enzo Maresca and Arne Slot’s corners, and came to blows over which boss is more deserving of the award so far. Liverpool and Chelsea lie first and third in the table respectively, as Slot’s men maintain a healthy six-point lead over Arsenal in second, and still have a game in hand. Speaking on his YouTube channel Rio Ferdinand Presents, the six-time Premier League winner argued in favour of Maresca, citing the Blues’ impressive turnaround from last season, where they finished a disappointing sixth place. He said: ‘It’s not a big difference. I just…
Fabrizio Romano has given Liverpool fans a fresh update on Trent Alexander-Arnold’s situation amid reports from Spain that the player wants to join Real Madrid. The Reds’ vice-captain has been linked with the Champions League holders for most of 2024, and with only six months remaining on his current contract at Anfield, the prospect of him swapping Merseyside for the Spanish capital seems plausible. On Saturday morning, Spanish outlet Marca claimed that the 26-year-old is keen to join Carlo Ancelotti’s side and has informed LFC bosses of those apparent wishes, although Liverpool Echo journalist Theo Squires subsequently reported that the…
Real Madrid are reportedly stepping up their pursuit of Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold – and soon there will be little the Reds can do about it. On the front page of Marca this Saturday, the Spaniards turned the heat up with claims that the Englishman has decided he wants to move to the La Liga giants in the summer, for free, and link up with his friend and England teammate Jude Bellingham in the Spanish capital. It is undoubtedly a strong pitch if you are Alexander-Arnold. A move to Madrid is arguably the pinnacle of football and reuniting with one…
Liverpool will look to make it three Premier League wins in a row when they face West Ham United at the London Stadium tomorrow. The Reds come into the back on the back of morale-boosting wins against Tottenham Hotspur and Leicester City, while the Hammers are also unbeaten in their last four Premier League games. Arne Slot will look to end 2024 with a bang and regardless of what happens in this game, Liverpool will be at the top of the table as second-placed Arsenal are six points behind them. And Chris Sutton feels another win is on the cards…
Liverpool have seen a number of players fall on the wrong side of officials in recent weeks and have to serve one-match bans as a result. The Reds’ trip to West Ham United on Sunday will mark the fourth time from their last six matches where they have enforced absentees because of suspension. Alexis Mac Allister sat out both Liverpool’s Champions League trip to Girona and Premier League clash with Fulham after being issued with his third European yellow card and fifth in the English top-flight against Real Madrid and Newcastle United respectively. Andy Robertson would then be shown a…
Not a single day has gone by over the past few months without something being said about Trent Alexander-Arnold and his Liverpool future. The 26-year-old’s contract runs out next summer and with the Reds yet to agree a new deal with him, he will be free to negotiate terms with potential suitors from the January transfer window. Real Madrid’s interest in Alexander-Arnold is the worst-kept secret in world football, but in recent days, Spanish newspapers have been on overdrive in terms of the chatter about his future. And now, Liverpool sources have had their say on what’s actually going on…
Liverpool cemented their status as Premier League leaders with a 3-1 win against Leicester City on Boxing Day. The Reds fell behind to a goal from Jordan Ayew, but Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah and Curtis Jones got their names on the scoresheet to turn the tide in Arne Slot’s favour.

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk has shared what he does off the pitch to maintain his top-level performance. The Dutchman ascribed his consistent peak-level performance to meditation, breathing exercises and good nutrition. Van Dijk, who moved to Anfield in 2018 from Southampton, has been an integral part of Liverpool’s success over the years. Apart from winning every possible title except the UEFA Europa League, Van Dijk has also won many individual awards. Moreover, the Dutch international is regarded as one of the top players in his position. While Van Dijk is often praised for his exceptional performances in a Liverpool…
For Trent Alexander-Arnold, the decision that he takes in 2025 will firstly define the rest of his career, but potentially the rest of his life too. And amid the wait for news on a new contract at Liverpool, the speculation remains rife. The Spanish outlet MARCA has reported that Alexander-Arnold’s mind is made up and that he intends to join Real Madrid. While Arne Slot — whenever he has been asked about it in public — has never wanted to comment on the situation, and the player himself has always wanted negotiations to take place behind closed doors, news one…
