The Reds have not been shy about splashing the cash in the New Year when necessary in the past. Several players…
Mohamed Salah has once again been criticised by his Muslim followers after posting a picture of him and his family in front of a Christmas tree. The Liverpool star, who is a Muslim, captioned the photo with ‘#MerryChristmas’. As has become the tradition for them, he, his wife wife Magi, and daughters Makka and Kayan posed in matching pyjamas for his Christmas post, smiling in front of their tree and a gingerbread person. Muslims do not traditionally celebrate Christmas but some do partake in the festivities that take place during the Christian holiday. ‘You let me down bro,’ wrote one…

Zay Flowers is to Lamar Jackson what Nico Collins is to C.J. Stroud: a giving gift this holiday season.

Somehow, the news surrounding Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell’s gruesome knee injury keeps worsening. He was already ruled out for the remainder of the 2024 campaign, but his status for 2025 (and potentially beyond) is officially in danger. Dell tore the ACL, LCL and MCL in his dislocated left kneecap and also sustained additional meniscus damage.

Not only will the talented second-year wideout be out for this season, but his absence will presumably extend through 2025 — and possibly beyond. The…

Considering the major changes that happened to Liverpool in 2024 — with Jurgen Klopp leaving, Michael Edwards and Julian Ward returning, and Richard Hughes arriving as sporting director — it is not easy to predict what might be in store in 2025. You would imagine that the changes won’t be quite so substantial, though it should be noted that Liverpool has coped well on the pitch regardless. But there are some big decisions that need to be made. Here, Liverpool.com has picked out the four things we think will ‘definitely’ happen in the new year. You can let us know…
Slot’s wife and kids remained in the Netherlands while he moved to England to coach the Reds, and he has enjoyed a near-perfect start to life on Merseyside.

They also hold a perfect record in Europe, winning all six of their Champions League group fixtures so far to sit top of the table.
