Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy believes the club should prioritise keeping Virgil van Dijk over Mohamed Salah as exit links continue to swirl over the superstar pair. Van Dijk appeared to lay recent rumours to rest following the Premier League victory over Tottenham on Sunday, stating that he would be a ‘part’ of the transition to come this summer. The 32-year-old is out of contract in 2025 and has been linked with Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Al-Qadsiah in Saudi Arabia in recent weeks. No new talks have taken place over a new deal and if the Reds want to…
Darwin Nunez had a weekend to forget for Liverpool, starting the Anfield clash against Tottenham on the bench before an ineffective cameo late on. In the aftermath of the Premier League encounter, which finished 4-2 to the Reds, Nunez was subjected to severe and unwarranted social media abuse, leading to the 24-year-old to delete all mentions of Liverpool from his Instagram profile. Nunez has suffered a poor run of form, without a goal to his name in his last SIX Premier League outings, and his long-term prospects on Merseyside have come under recent scrutiny. It’s been suggested that Barcelona will…
Darwin Nunez remains an enigma for Liverpool. The No.9 started the game against Tottenham Hotspur on the bench with Jurgen Klopp opting to name a front three of Luis Diaz, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah. The German’s decision was justified with both Salah and Gakpo getting on the scoresheet in a 4-2 win for the Reds while Diaz impressed in more of a central role at times. The Colombian was replaced after 75 minutes having completed 100 percent of his passes, 100% of his attempted dribbles and winning 70% of his ground duels to round off a strong outing. Taking…
Garth Crooks has been waxing lyrical about one Liverpool player who was astonishingly rejected by a rival Premier League club. The pundit selected Harvey Elliott in his top flight Team of the Week for his BBC Sport column and registered his amazement at Chelsea snubbing the 21-year-old previously due to reservations about his physique. The ex-Tottenham forward, who watched the youngster score a screamer against his former club, wrote: “At no stage did Spurs look like they were going to get anything out of this match and by the time Harvey Elliott had hit an absolute belter from just outside…
Liverpool have been linked with a move to sign a number of players since the turn of 2024. The Reds are all set to bid farewell to Jurgen Klopp in a couple of weeks. The German will be stepping down as the manager after nearly eight years at the club. Arne Slot is likely to be the man who will replace Klopp, and he will surely want to bring in a few new players once the summer transfer window opens. Fabrizio Romano shares what he has heard about Liverpool and Pedri Liverpool are expected to be very active in the…
Goalkeeping coach Dave Watson has suggested that Guglielmo Vicario will be devastated after doing something incredible just before Tottenham Hotspur conceded their first goal against Liverpool on Sunday. There were few positives for Ange Postecoglou to take from the opening hour at Anfield on Sunday as Spurs were blown away by the Reds. Tottenham were looking to avoid a fourth defeat in a row, but Jurgen Klopp’s men were ruthless, with Mohamed Salah opening the scoring after 16 minutes with a header at the back post. It came from a brilliant ball from Cody Gakpo, who cut inside from the…
James Milner has revealed what Jurgen Klopp told the players on the morning of Liverpool’s legendary comeback against Barcelona in the Champions League. Cast your minds back to the morning of May 7, 2019. Fans were waking up after a night when Man City came agonisingly close to dropping points in the title race. Instead, Vincent Kompany’s remarkable winner against Leicester all but sealed their triumph. With the Reds needing to beat Barcelona by more than three clear goals to reach the Champions League final later that day, you would have been forgiven for feeling demoralised. The same could be…
Rio Ferdinand has admitted that he cannot believe what he has heard said about Mohamed Salah in recent times after the Liverpool star had been struggling for form before their most recent win. Mohamed Salah was one of the stars of the show on Sunday as Liverpool beat Tottenham 4-2 at Anfield to get back to winning ways. It was a reminder of how good Salah can be after a really disappointing spell for the Egyptian, whose only two goals in his previous eight league appearances came from the penalty spot. Salah had come in for plenty of criticism in…
The moment every Liverpool fan has been dreading for months is set to arrive on Sunday 19 May, with Jurgen Klopp taking charge of his final ever game with the Reds. The German announced he was going to leave Liverpool in late January, a decision that still hasn’t quite sunk in among the club’s supporters. Arne Slot will have the unenviable task of filling the void left by the 56-year-old, who has just two matches in the Liverpool hot seat before his time with the Reds comes to an emotional conclusion. First up is a trip to Aston Villa next…
Liverpool have been told to offer Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold new deals before welcoming any new faces to Anfield this summer. The pair were instrumental in the Reds’ recent victory over Tottenham, with the Egypt international opening the scoring just a quarter of an hour into the game. Salah’s current contract is set to expire next year and although Liverpool turned down a hefty £150million offer from Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittihad last summer, his mixed performance this season has sparked speculation about his future – especially with Jurgen Klopp’s impending departure at the end of the season. Interest…
