Liverpool’s search for future stars may lead them to Argentina’s Velez Sarsfield, where 20-year-old Julian Fernandez has been making waves. Dubbed the “new Angel Di Maria,” Fernandez has piqued the interest of Liverpool’s scouting department, who have already drawn comparisons between him and the iconic Argentine winger. According to TBR Football, several Premier League clubs have shown interest in Fernandez, but it’s his reported dream to play at Anfield that has caught Liverpool fans’ attention.

Liverpool may have a decision to make when it comes to two of their players competing for one of the most important positions on the pitch. The Reds return to Premier League action on Sunday against Chelsea after the international break, where Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to start at right-back. Alexander-Arnold has established himself as one of the best in his position in world football, but there remain question marks over where his long-term future will be. The 26-year-old’s contract is set to expire at the end of the season, at which point he could leave his boyhood club on…
In recent years we’ve seen Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Erling Haaland (Manchester City) and Jadon Sancho (Manchester United) shipped off the BVB assembly line. Albeit, with mixed results for the latter. Now it seems that one of the Bundesliga giants’ latest young charges, the ‘unstoppable’ (in the words of Emre Can) Jamie Gittens, could be next in line for a Premier League transfer. How much will it cost to complete Jamie Gittens transfer? The Merseysiders looked to address a key deficit in the squad with the signing of versatile forward Federico Chiesa. With the Italian having successfully made the switch…
Gary Neville seriously disagrees with Paul Merson’s Liverpool v Chelsea prediction: ‘They’re a bit…’
The Merseysiders will welcome fellow high-flyers Chelsea to Anfield after having secured an 18-point haul from their opening seven top-flight games in 2024/25. There are still doubts aplenty over the Reds’ title credentials in light of what was objectively deemed to be a generous early fixture schedule. Indeed, it only emboldened pundits to write off Liverpool in the title race ahead of the October international break. Gary Neville counters Paul Merson’s Liverpool v Chelsea score prediction Gary Neville backed Liverpool to take all three points against Chelsea on their return to domestic football this weekend. The former Manchester United fullback…
As Virgil van Dijk traipsed down the tunnel at the Puskas Arena following his second-half dismissal against Hungary, he surely knew what was coming. The Liverpool man has regularly been a lightning rod for criticism in a Netherlands shirt, and the days following his red card in Budapest were no different. Voetbal International journalist Martin Krabbendam awarded Van Dijk with a “failing grade” of 5 in his player ratings after he picked up two bookings in the space of three minutes, while Rick Kraaijeveld of Sportnieuws simply branded the defender’s actions “stupid”. Such inflammatory language has almost become an international…
Liverpool are currently top of the Premier League but we all know this period of games before Christmas will test Arne Slot’s squad and that starts with the match against Chelsea this weekend. Speaking with the press, the 46-year-old provided an injury update: “Alisson is for sure not with us in the upcoming weeks, that’s clear. So, that’s a blow for him and for us because I think he did really well this season and did so well for this club for so many years. “Now the good thing is, and I said this many times, that Caoimhin [Kelleher] did…
Carlos Alcaraz will face Jannik Sinner in the final of the 6 Kings Slam in Saudi Arabia, having overcome an emotional Rafael Nadal in his penultimate tournament before retirement. Nadal drew plenty of admiration from the crowd in Riyadh and was applauded off after a 6-3 6-3 defeat, which ensured he will face great rival Novak Djokovic in a third-place play-off on Saturday (October 19). Alcaraz set the tone immediately by breaking to love in the very first game of the encounter, though Nadal found his feet to keep things competitive in the opening set. Alcaraz hit a neat forehand…
Chelsea travel to Liverpool this Sunday afternoon for a fascinating match in the Premier League between two sides that have started the season very strongly. The Blues went into the October international break sitting fourth in the league table after seven games, which represents a positive beginning for Enzo Maresca as the new head coach. However, they’re now preparing to face a Liverpool side sitting at the top of the division flying under Arne Slot. During a recent interview with Stadium Astro, Maresca insisted Chelsea will try to play their football on their visit to Liverpool. Paul Merson predicts Liverpool…
Naby Keita believes he is still being shown “a lot of love” from Liverpool supporters and explained why he turned down the opportunity to extend his stay at Anfield. Keita left the Reds last summer for Bundesliga side Werder Bremen on a free transfer having been bought for £52.75million from RB Leipzig in July 2018. Despite spending five years at the club, constant injury setbacks and loss of form restricted him to just 129 appearances. Nevertheless, Keita still claimed Premier League and Champions League winners’ medals and started the successful Club World Cup final in 2019 and the FA Cup…
Former Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijnders believes his old club’s strong start to the season has justified the decision of the departed coaching staff to remain in charge for a further year. Lijnders followed Jurgen Klopp and several others in leaving the Reds in the summer after a trophy-laden spell at Anfield. The Dutchman, who is now boss at Red Bull Salzburg, had considered leaving along with Klopp the previous year after a disappointing campaign in which Liverpool missed out on Champions League qualification for the first time in seven years. However, they chose to stay for another season in…
