Liverpool are reportedly considering signing Juventus star Gleison Bremer, as per a recent report. After joining Torino back in 2018, the Brazilian showcased his qualities in Serie A and as a result, he came under the radar of several top Italian clubs but the Bianconeri eventually managed to win the race for him. Upon moving to the Allianz Stadium a couple of years ago, the 27-year-old has established himself as an integral part of the Old Lady of Turin’s starting eleven. Having been impressed by the South American’s displays, Liverpool expressed their interest in signing him ahead of the summer…
It was somewhat of a baptism of fire when it came to Richard Hughes’ first summer at Liverpool. Arriving as the Reds’ sporting director was never going to be an easy task. Joining against the backdrop of an iconic manager departing made it markedly more challenging. Had Jurgen Klopp remained in the Anfield hot seat, it might have made the transition period easier. But that was the scenario Hughes was dealt. In fairness, it was no secret that Klopp was leaving, having announced the bombshell news four months before last season was over. While Hughes himself did not officially arrive…
Paul Merson has told Liverpool to drop Diogo Jota for Darwin Nunez this weekend, but Arne Slot has told the latter that “really hard work” must be done for him to start in the Liverpool side. Nunez is yet to start a game in any competition for the Reds this season. In fact, his four substitute appearances make up less than one full game (84 minutes). Meanwhile, Jota has started up top in every single game in the campaign to date. For Liverpool’s next match, against Bournemouth, Merson suggests the pair should be swapped, with Nunez’s qualities well suited for…
Under Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool assembled won of the world’s most talented squads, reaching three Champions League Finals and winning one of them while securing another elusive and prestigious title, the Premier League trophy. Liverpool achieved this by signing talented players who were undervalued and not yet viewed as superstars. Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane, and Mohamed Salah formed one of the best Premier League attacking trios ever, yet none of the three were recognized as elite players before arriving at Anfield. So while Liverpool usually sign players just before they become among the world’s best, that hasn’t stopped the Reds from…
Patrik Réti and Dominik Szoboszlai both fell in love with football in the same place – the training pitches of Fehérvár FC. As young kids, they were teammates during their formative years in the game. But back then it was not Szoboszlai who was dreaming of gracing the Anfield turf. It was Réti. “For my whole life, I dreamt about playing at Anfield,” Réti tells Anfield Watch. “Liverpool has been more than a passion for me. I know I’m not from the city, but I feel like one of the people.” Just like Szoboszlai, Réti was a promising young player…
Few Liverpudlians cross the Goodison Park divide to Anfield – let alone go on to become a Liverpool legend. But that’s exactly what happened to Jamie Carragher who spent a year at Everton in his youth and grew up a die hard Toffee. The former Reds defender, who went on to make 737 appearances for Liverpool, is the second longest serving player in their history and has made the most appearances for the club in Europe. But his career could have been very different. Carragher has revealed he was told by his Liverpool coaches to play down his Everton allegiances,…
Arne Slot brought another new face into his Liverpool first team squad ahead of the Reds’ game against Bournemouth. The Liverpool head coach has not rotated his squad a lot since taking over the reins. He’s been cautious in giving young players opportunities, too. That’s a stark contract to Jurgen Klopp’s methods, but it doesn’t mean Slot isn’t giving the club’s young stars opportunities. Recently, Liverpool youngster Tom Hill was included in the club’s Premier League and Champions League squad. And even more recently, two Liverpool youngsters got to train with Slot’s first team ahead of the Reds’ game against…
Liverpool will aim to start rebuilding Fortress Anfield when they entertain Bournemouth this afternoon. Last weekend, the Reds suffered their first home defeat to Nottingham Forest in more than 55 years with a shock 1-0 reverse. Arne Slot’s side responded in impressive fashion in midweek when they opened their Champions League campaign with a 3-1 triumph against seven-time winners AC Milan in the San Siro. Now Liverpool will hope to continue that momentum and prove the Forest setback was only an early blip in the campaign. But should Slot shake up his starting line-up? Our writers have their say… Ian…
Bruce Grobbelaar, the decorated Liverpool stalwart of the 1980s and early 1990s, may have been one of the first advocates of goalkeepers wandering beyond their initial remit of merely preventing the ball from going into their net. But the modern Premier League era is when the notion of keeper as all-round footballer has been truly embraced. An ability with the ball at their feet as well as in their hands has now become a prerequisite for almost every leading player between the sticks, particularly with clubs regularly challenging for honours. And few would dispute that Liverpool possess arguably the very…
Arne Slot is set to make three changes to his Liverpool team for today’s Premier League meeting with Bournemouth after goalkeeper Alisson Becker was ruled out owing to a muscle injury. Liverpool head coach Arne Slot could be forced into three changes for this afternoon’s Premier League meeting with Bournemouth. And two weeks on from discussing his desire to leave Anfield in pursuit of regular starts, Ireland goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher is set to replace Alisson Becker between the posts after the Brazilian stopper sustained a muscle injury in midweek. Andrew Robertson is in line to return at left back after…
