Now is the time for Liverpool to bring in the heir to Mohamed Salah. The three-time Golden Boot winner turns 32 this week and is into the final year of his contract. Even if he puts pen to paper on a new deal and prolongs his stay on Merseyside, the club would be foolish not to look to futureproof their forward line during this transfer window. Salah finished as the club’s top scorer in the Premier League last season (18) and claimed the most assists for the Reds in the English top-flight (10). These numbers are exceptional when you consider…
Liverpool have found out that they would have to break their transfer record in order to sign one of the targets this summer. New manager Arne Slot is hoping to continue the progress that Jurgen Klopp made at Anfield. The Reds are currently in the market looking for new players with the aim of challenging for trophies next season. Liverpool finished third in the Premier League last season and failed to win the Europa League despite being one of the heavy favourites to do that. In order to bolster their attack, one of the players that the Reds are targeting…
There’s usually apathy aplenty heading into international tournaments. Not that Liverpool fans don’t look forward to the feast of football on display. Far from it. But when it comes to England, it’s fair to say large sections of Kopites – particularly those on Merseyside – have little care for how the Three Lions proceed. There is a marked disconnection between Scousers and the national team, mainly due to the rejection of the monarchy and establishment. Yet ahead of the European Championships starting in Germany, there is intrigue when it comes to England. There is perhaps a tantalising reason why those…

Jan Kromkamp has sent a warning to Arne Slot after his appointment as Liverpool’s new head coach. The Dutchman was confirmed as Jurgen Klopp’s successor last month, and officially started work on June 1 after joining the Reds from Feyenoord. During his three seasons with the Eredivisie outfit, he won the league title, KNVB Cup, and reached the Europa Conference League final. Kromkamp, who is manager of Dutch lower league side CSV Apeldoorn, enjoyed a year-long stint with Liverpool during his playing career. While he would only make 18 appearances for the Reds after signing from Villarreal in January 2006,…
Diogo Jota insists Benfica’s Joao Neves has the ‘quality and mindset to go really far’ in his career as he continues to be linked with a big-money move to the Premier League. The 19-year-old has been named in Portugal’s 26-man squad for this summer’s European Championship finals in Germany. Portugal will face Turkey, Georgia and the Czech Republic in Group F. In addition to Cristiano Ronaldo, Rafel Leao and Jota, plenty of eyes will follow Neves this summer after a stellar breakthrough campaign at Benfica in which he made 55 appearances across all competitions. In January, the midfielder – who…
Manchester City are ‘poised to make a move’ for their successor to Pep Guardiola in a development that will go down like a lead balloon over at Liverpool, according to a report. Guardiola guided Man City to their fourth successive Premier League title last term and their sixth crown in seven years. Questions remain over the club’s 115 Financial Fair Play charges, though what cannot be debated is Guardiola is among the greatest managers in English football history. However, the 53-year-old has dropped numerous hints over recent times that his future could lay away from the Etihad. Guardiola’s current contract…
For Liverpool supporters, it was previously an image that offered a tantalising glimpse of a possible exciting future. Now, though, every sighting is greeted with a growing sense of dread. The close friendship between Reds defender Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jude Bellingham, forged during their time together with England, was viewed as good reason for the latter to make a move to Anfield from Borussia Dortmund last year. That it didn’t transpire highlights not every such relationship can sway transfer dealings. But that hasn’t stopped Liverpool fans having a certain sense of unease at the duo once again being snapped regularly…
Liverpool’s transfer plans this summer may have received a significant setback, with news breaking on Tuesday of yet another injury in the Netherlands camp ahead of Euro 2024. After Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong had to withdraw from the squad due to injury on Monday, Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners, believed to be one of Arne Slot’s main targets this summer, has also been ruled out of the tournament after sustaining a muscle injury. Liverpool fans have a particularly vested interest in the Dutch squad this off-season. Managed by former Everton boss Ronald Koeman, the final 26-man squad includes Virgil van Dijk,…
Anthony Gordon has admitted he has “more motivation” when facing off against the team he supported growing up. The Newcastle United winger has been linked with a summer switch to Liverpool and is believed to have grown up supporting the Reds, despite his recent years representing Everton. Gordon began his career with the Reds but was released by the club at the age of 11 and joined city rivals, Everton. He left the Blues last January in a deal worth £40million to sign for Newcastle. A recent report by The Daily Star indicated Liverpool are interested in making a move…
