Liverpool looks as though it will strengthen the squad before the transfer window closes, with a deal for Federico Chiesa now on the brink of completion. But the Reds need to get a move on if the forward is to be available against Manchester United at the weekend. A deal for Giorgi Mamardashvili has already been completed, but the goalkeeper will remain at Valencia for the 2024/25 season. Chiesa will be the first player to strengthen the options at Arne Slot’s immediate disposal as he navigates the tricky challenge of taking over from Jurgen Klopp. Infamously, Liverpool is the last…
Since Arne Slot arrived at Liverpool, the Dutchman has seemingly made it crystal clear who is in charge. With the ghost of Jurgen Klopp still hanging around Anfield, Slot was always going to have his work cut out to win over his playing staff and the Reds faithful. However, with two wins in two Premier League games, and a well-publicised placation of Trent Alexander-Arnold, he looks to be heading down the right path. Ultimately, how he is perceived by both the players and supporters and, subsequently, the winning of silverware, will go a long way to determining whether he is…
Transfer deadline day on Friday marks more than just the end of this summer’s window for Liverpool. It is also the day when Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold will only have ten months remaining on their contracts. Van Dijk, 33, of that trio has spoken most often and openly about his future at the club he captains. “I’m very calm,” the central defender said twice while speaking on Sky Sports after the Brentford match. “Whatever happens next year, we will see. Everything happens for a reason, is how I see it, and for now, there have been…
Very few players would be bold enough to consider representing both Manchester United and Liverpool. In fact, just 12 players have lined up for each of English football’s two most decorated clubs in their 132-year shared history, and it’s no wonder why. There is no love lost between the north west rivals The tension between the north-west powerhouses is steeped in history, with the cities’ rivalry dating back to the industrial revolution. And since both sides arrived on the football scene in 1878 and 1892 respectively, it has been a similar story. With a combined 137 major trophies between them,…
It’s the final week of the transfer window and Liverpool have finally sprung to life in terms of making signings for the squad. Reliable Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the club have wrapped up a deal for Federico Chiesa. As the club continues to look at potential reinforcements ahead of Deadline Day, one position that Michael Edwards & co. need to look at is central defense. With Joe Gomez likely to leave the club, Liverpool are extremely short in this department. As per Spanish source, Fichajes, Liverpool are preparing a last-minute move to sign talented Inter Milan defender, Alessandro…
Liverpool have enquired about the possibility of signing another bargain attacker after the arrival of Federico Chiesa, according to a new report. It has been a frustrating summer for Liverpool supporters at times, as the club have taken their time to get their transfer business underway. However, with two days of the window left, it appears they are now starting to get very busy. Liverpool have finally got their first transfer through the door under manager Arne Slot, with goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili joining the club in a £30 million deal from Spanish side Valenica. The Georgia international is seen as…
For most of this summer, Liverpool have been subject to ridicule from the football fandom for their lack of signings, as is the norm these days for any club failing to, whether voluntarily or otherwise, sign an array of players regardless of whether there is a need for it. The noises have died down, however, since the start of the season, the Reds having registered two relatively comfortable 2-0 wins in their first two league games. And now, one of their players is rightfully getting the plaudits for his performance in the week gone by. Luis Díaz “a joy to…
According to reports, Liverpool are set to strengthen their attacking depth with the addition of Juventus winger Federico Chiesa. The Italian forward will join for a reported £13 million fee, but former Preston North End manager and Liverpool fan Ryan Lowe believes the club should have pursued Anthony Gordon instead. The Reds have struggled to bolster their squad this season, with two of their targets, Martin Zubimendi and Gordon, deciding to stay put at their respective club. Although midfield was an area in need of improvement, the club have now added a solid backup to Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz…
The Carabao Cup draw has handed Liverpool boss Arne Slott a tough tie for his first English cup game in charge of the Reds. The Reds clinched the trophy in February, triumphing over Chelsea at Wembley. This marked Jurgen Klopp’s final silverware achievement, with Arne Slot now given the responsibility of adding to the Anfield trophy collection. His first attempt at a cup commences in September, with Liverpool being one of seven Premier League clubs entering the competition at the third-round stage. For the first time, those participating in the Champions League and Europa League were separated, with additional European…
Federico Chiesa’s preference when it comes to the Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Paul Scholes debate may have just won him plenty of fans at Liverpool. The Juventus winger is set to join Liverpool having departed Italy on Wednesday morning to travel to Merseyside for a medical. Chiesa will join Liverpool for a fee of around $14.5m (£11.0m/€13.0m), with the Reds bolstering their attack, and finding cover for Mohamed Salah in signing the Italian. “I am happy, I am very happy. I want to say goodbye to the Bianconeri fans,” Chiesa told reporters at the airport departing Italy, according to…
