Trent Alexander-Arnold has responded to recent rumours surrounding Jurgen Klopp and the England manager’s job. The former Liverpool boss had been named in some quarters as a contender to replace Gareth Southgate following the latter’s post-Euro 2024 departure, but David Ornstein has dismissed the likelihood of the German taking the vacant role. The 57-year-old had cited the need for a break from football as his primary reason for stepping down from Anfield earlier this year, and one of his most loyal servants on Merseyside has reiterated that stance. In an interview with The Mirror‘s Jeremy Armstrong, Trent was asked how…
RB Leipzig’s Spanish sensation Dani Olmo has been turning heads across Europe following his stellar performances at Euro 2024. The 26-year-old was instrumental in Spain’s victory, sparking interest from a host of clubs — and Pep Guardiola already unwittingly sent a message to suitors. Manchester United is keeping a close eye on the situation unfolding in Germany, AS has claimed. Meanwhile, Barcelona, Liverpool and Arsenal have also apparently expressed interest, but for now, Olmo remains a Leipzig player. The future of the Spanish star at Leipzig is uncertain, as he has expressed his desire to be at a club where…
Liverpool don’t tend to spend crazy money unless they’re confident about a player. Take Leny Yoro, who just last week joined Manchester United for £52 million, after the Reds decided to pull out of the race because of the fees being quoted. And yet, central defence is one area Liverpool remain keen to strengthen this summer. Joel Matip has left the club, Ibrahima Konate had injury issues last campaign, and players like Nathaniel Phillips, Rhys Williams and Sepp van den Berg’s future is up in the air, showing the need for more strength in depth. However, finding solutions that offer…
Johan Bakayoko is a reportedly transfer target for Liverpool and Bayern Munich. Liverpool remain interested in Johan Bakayoko, reports suggest. But the Reds are likely to have to wait several more weeks before the winger potentially departs PSV Eindhoven. Bakayoko helped PSV win the Eredivisie title in the 2023-24 season as he plundered 14 goals and 14 assists along the way. He also represented Belgium at Euro 2024 as they crashed out in the last-16 at the hands of France. The 21-year-old has been mentioned as a potential long-term replacement for Mo Salah at Liverpool. Salah is into the final…
Liverpool vice-captain Trent Alexander-Arnold has given his opinion on who he thinks comes out on top between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and his answer has gotten people talking. The topic of who is better out of the most successful Ballon d’Or winner of all time and the greatest ever goalscorer football has seen has often been debated, with fans sitting on either side of the fence. Having had the unique perspective of both watching and playing against the duo, Alexander-Arnold’s better placed than most to have his say on which icon is superior. However, his forthright response on the…
While Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag didn’t quite voice his support for Arne Slot’s recent appointment as Liverpool head coach, the Dutchman nonetheless described his compatriot as a “very good match” for his new club. In a detailed interview with Dutch newspaper AD, ten Hag explained that he thought that Slot’s arrival at Anfield showed that it was a great moment for Dutch football. “We’ve played against each other before, of course, but I think that’s really great. Also for Dutch football, for our coach training,” he said. “I think the fact that there are now two Dutch managers…
Liverpool have been named a potential suitor for Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin. The Ukranian shot stopper sees his contract expire in the summer of 2025, and according to reports, he has no intention of extending his stay at the Bernabéu. Lunin’s contributions to Real Madrid cannot be overlooked, especially during Courtois’ injury spells last season. The Ukrainian played a pivotal role in Real Madrid’s Champions League campaign, including notable performances in the knockout stages against the likes of Manchester City and Bayern Munich. Real Madrid’s willingness to negotiate stems from the need to either cash in on Lunin now…
Liverpool Set Price For Van Dijk Liverpool have placed a €55 million price tag on Virgil van Dijk amid growing interest from several Saudi Pro League clubs. The Dutch defender, who has just one year remaining on his contract, is reportedly open to a move to the Middle Eastern league this summer. Talks between Van Dijk’s representatives and the Public Investment Fund (PIF), which manages investments for Saudi clubs, have already taken place, with Van Dijk showing a strong inclination towards joining one of the Saudi teams. The Saudi Interest Liverpool are aware of the interest from Saudi clubs and…
Liverpool watched as Leny Yoro moved to Manchester United. The wisdom of that decision will only be known at the end of the season, or perhaps even further down the line — but one thing it’s probably safe to say now is that the Reds would be wise to find an alternative on the market. There’s no denying that Yoro’s move to Old Trafford looked bad from a Liverpool perspective. It appeared as if those at Anfield had simply assumed Yoro would be off to Real Madrid, while Manchester United was rewarded for its persistence with a player widely agreed…
Liverpool’s erstwhile manager Jurgen Klopp earned a reputation as a great tactician, but perhaps above all else he was known for his incredible relationships with his players. Yet even he had one or two cases where tension broke out. For the most part, Klopp squeezed the absolute maximum out of his charges, making sure the team at Anfield was far greater than the sum of its parts. But that’s not to say that the players were anything other than world-class, and those who did not quite make the grade ultimately had to be cut. When he arrived in 2015, Klopp…
