Son Heung-min’s 77th-minute goal led to some frayed nerves at Anfield on Sunday as Tottenham reduced the deficit on Liverpool from four to two in the space of just five minutes, but thankfully there was no further damage done to the Reds thereafter. The South Korea forward now has seven goals in 16 appearances against Jurgen Klopp’s side, netting in each of his last five (Transfermarkt), and the departing LFC manager is on record as stating that failing to sign the now 31-year-old during his time in charge of Borussia Dortmund was a grievous error (The Mirror). In that context,…
Liverpool voted in favour of new anchoring regulations as it will weaken both Manchester United and Manchester City more than them. That is the view of finance expert Kieran Maguire, who exclusively told Football Insider that he was initially surprised by the stance taken by Liverpool in the latest Premier League vote. Top flight clubs met last Monday (29 April) to discuss new financial regulations which will cap spending to a multiple of the lowest earnings in the division. Only three clubs – Aston Villa, Manchester United and Manchester City – voted against the proposal meaning the rules will now be introduced…
There’s never a dull moment with Darwin Núñez. Even when he’s not on the pitch, he has managed to grab the headlines.

The drastic measure comes amid questions over his future at Anfield. Núñez is without a goal in his last eight games, and he has found himself…
Darwin Nunez’s chaotic spell with Liverpool could end in the summer, with the striker dropping the biggest hint yet that he could leave the Anfield club amid rumours that Barcelona are targeting the Uruguay international as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski. Nunez was left out of the starting XI for Liverpool’s 4-2 victory over Tottenham on Sunday, with Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz preferred in attack alongside Mohamed Salah. This came in the wake of reports that Barca are eyeing up a dramatic summer swoop for the 24-year-old, who joined the Reds in 2022 from Benfica for a club-record fee…

Just about everyone associated with Liverpool wants Jurgen Klopp to end his reign with another Premier League title – except one former star. Or at least Ryan Babel wouldn’t be that miffed if Arsenal ended up pipping the Reds to the post come the end of this season. The Gunners lead Manchester City at the Premier League by one point but have played a game more than Pep Guardiola’s men, while Liverpool are almost certainly out of the conversation sat five points off the pace. Babel, 37, arrived at Anfield in 2007 and spent four years on Merseyside, failing to…
If the pressure is off for the final few weeks of Jurgen Klopp’s time at Liverpool, then so too is the handbrake it seems. And if that allows the Reds to play with the kind of verve that saw them go 4-0 up against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday afternoon, then it might also be why a chaotic final 20 minutes or so threatened to see their visitors incredibly emerge with something from the game too. As it turned out, the hosts were able to take maximum points that their efforts for the first 70 minutes or so thoroughly…

Darwin Nunez’s latest social media activity suggests it could be time for the Uruguayan forward and Liverpool to part ways at the end of the season. The striker has had an up-and-down time at Anfield since joining from Benfica in 2022, and it looks…
Arne Slot has all but confirmed his move to Liverpool – emphasising that it is only a matter of time before his exit from Feyenoord will be made official. The Reds reached an agreement with the Dutch club to appoint the 45-year-old at the end of the current season, replacing Jurgen Klopp at the helm after nine years in charge on Merseyside. Slot, like Klopp, took charge of his penultimate home game in charge of the club on Sunday and secured a comprehensive 5-0 victory over PEC Zwolle. PSV Eindhoven secured the Eredivisie title earlier on during the day, though…
Liverpool could end up using money generated through an underperforming attacker for their summer rebuild Liverpool are braced for a summer rebuild as the club is now set to undergo massive changes after Jurgen Klopp departs this summer. Even though a replacement for the German has been found this is just the beginning of the changes that will swoop over Anfield in the coming weeks.
