CBS Sports report that Liverpool are one of a few teams looking at Ajax defender Devyne Rensch. The outlet actually mentions him as a possible signing for Arsenal, before naming the Reds and Manchester United as rivals for his signature. Rensch is a 20-year-old defender currently playing at Ajax. He’s come through their youth academy, as you’d expect, before becoming a regular for the senior side. That always makes a player a target. Liverpool already have one Ajax graduate in their squad, in fact, with Ryan Gravenberch moving to Anfield in the summer. Rensch may be one to watch this…

Liverpool fans will need to make the most of Mohamed Salah against Newcastle. They won’t be seeing him for a while after Monday because the Egyptian will be heading off to the Ivory Coast following the New Year’s Day clash at Anfield as he represents his country at the Africa Cup of Nations. How long he will be gone for, no one knows at this stage, although it could be February before we see him back in the red of Liverpool. And, of course, his impending absence has fans more than a little worried. He is, after all, the club’s…

Liverpool could be about to head into 2024 top of the pile in the Premier League, with Jürgen Klopp’s side having already finished 2023 in style. That win over Burnley took a while to be sealed, but it was always a likely outcome. The Reds’ place at the summit will of course depend on Arsenal’s result at Fulham on Sunday, but Liverpool can be delighted with the position they find themselves in heading into the New Year. The problems that arose during last season’s disappointment now look to be far behind them. There is plenty of work still to do…

Mo Salah has played his last football of 2023 and what a year it was for the Liverpool star. He hit two all-time milestones this year, for one – 200 goals for Liverpool and 150 in the Premier League. It’s been an incredible journey since arriving in 2017 and the most amazing part of it all is how Salah just continues to thrive. He never has off years – rarely even bad patches of form – and 2023 was no different. The Egyptian hit a milestone this year as he scored at least 20 goals and registered at least 10…

No Salah, no Salah, no Salah, running down the wing. The words might as well ring out in the style of the Kop’s favourite song, like a red alert around Anfield. With Liverpool the Premier League’s somewhat surprising leaders after a topsy-turvy half-season, could Mohamed Salah’s sojourn at the Africa Cup of Nations provide hope for their rivals and another twist in the title race? Jürgen Klopp donned a furrowed brow when the topic was tabled as he looked forward to Monday’s visit of Newcastle, lamenting Salah’s absence not quite with the fury he directs at Saturday lunchtime schedulers but with a…

VAR continues to cause increasing controversy across elite-level football, with each decision under greater scrutiny than ever before. In Liverpool matches over the festive period alone there has been debate over whether the right calls were made to disallow Cody Gakpo and Harvey Elliott goals against Burnley, and why the Reds weren’t awarded a penalty for a Martin Odegaard handball against Arsenal. But such incidents are just the tip of the iceberg, with frustration at the use of technology growing more and more with each passing week in the Premier League. Of course, Jurgen Klopp’s men aren’t the only team…

Liverpool and the rest of the clubs around the Premier League will soon be able to do business. A year ago, Cody Gakpo was already through the door ahead of the window opening and Jürgen Klopp has already played down the chances of a signing. That was, though, before Kostas Tsimikas joined the injury list with that suspected broken collarbone against Arsenal. “In eight years I’ve never understood this, you always talk about transfers as if it would be the easiest thing in the world,” Klopp told reporters during his press conference three weeks ago. “So find a player, find the…

Christmas has passed and the new year is nearly upon us. And for Liverpool, there is a real chance of glory in 2024. Top of the table at the halfway point in the Premier League season, there are three more pieces of silverware still up for grabs on top of that as well. Few people would have anticipated that Liverpool would be as advanced in its rebuilding phase at this point, and even fewer would have dared suggest that Manchester City would have dropped as many points as it has. For a combination of those two factors, Jürgen Klopp’s side…
