Alexis Mac Allister was one of four midfield arrivals at Anfield over the summer, but the Argentine has already given his seal of approval to another potential target. Liverpool moved quickly to secure the signing of Mac Allister from Brighton at the beginning of the window in a deal worth £35 million. The World Cup winner has previously talked up his fellow countryman Ezequiel Fernandez, who has been linked with the Reds in recent days. The Boca Juniors midfielder is also said to have attracted the attention of AC Milan and Benfica, with Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport listing the Reds…
Having reached a positive conclusion with regard to the search for investment into Liverpool, Reds owners Fenway Sports Group will now focus on the continued growth of their sporting empire. Last month it was announced that FSG had sealed a deal with New York-based firm Dynasty Equity for a minority investment into the club for a sum between $100m and $200m, with the capital raised to be used to improve the club’s cash flow position by paying down bank debt accrued through infrastructure projects such a the Anfield Road redevelopment, the building of the AXA Training Centre in Kirkby and…
Liverpool have been linked with Athletic Bilbao attacker Nico Williams in previous months. The Reds, should their interest be concrete, will face a stern test to bring the Spain starlet to Anfield after growing competition from around Europe. However, president Jon Uriarte has seemingly poured cold water on any possibility of a move from the Basque country for the 21-year-old. Another player mooted with a move to Merseyside in recent months is Torino defender Perr Schuurs. Liverpool’s next port of call for reinforcements is the backline with the summer bringing a number of names linked with a swap to Anfield.…
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has been told to have a word with teammate Luis Diaz after his performance against Everton. BBC Sport pundit Garth Crooks named the Egyptian star in his team of the week after his brace in the Merseyside Derby. It was far from Mohamed Salah’s best performance in a Liverpool shirt on Saturday. Salah was largely anonymous before Michael Keane gave a penalty away for handball and he converted the spot kick. A fantastic run by Darwin Nunez in the final moments set up Salah for his second goal in the dying moments and once again gave the…
We all know that Liverpool is the pinnacle of career moves and one former Red has explained how, when he heard that an offer had been accepted for his services, his only hope was not moving to Arsenal. Speaking on the ‘We Are Liverpool Podcast’, John Aldridge discussed how a transfer from Oxford United to Anfield came about: “Well, I got to know the morning that we played Man City, Maine Road. “A strange one, like half ten in the morning, rooming with Bobby McDonald. He said, ‘The gaffer wants to see you.’ Strange. He said, ‘The club’s accepted an offer…
Liverpool got back to winning ways in the Premier League by earning Merseyside bragging rights over Everton. Mohamed Salah netted a second-half double at Anfield on Saturday after Ashley Young was sent off to ensure that Jurgen Klopp’s side returned from the international break with a morale-boosting victory over their local rivals that send them third in the top-flight and only one point off top spot before unbeaten Tottenham play Fulham on Monday night. The Reds now face a busy period coming up, with a Europa League clash with French side Toulouse on Thursday followed by the League visit of Nottingham…
According to a report by Fichajes, Liverpool are keen on having Ezequiel Fernandez in their ranks. The 21-year-old Boca Juniors midfielder has been in sensational form over the past 12 months and he is on the radar of some of the biggest clubs in world football. Fernandez has come up the ranks at Boca Juniors. The 21-year-old was sent out on loan to Tigre in the 2022 season to gain first-team experience. He featured in 42 matches for them before returning to his parent club ahead of the 2023 season. His impressive loan spell resulted in him being promoted to their first…
Liverpool added four new midfielders to their squad this summer but Jurgen Klopp is “obsessed” with trying to bring another young star to Anfield in 2024. The Reds added Alexis MacAllister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch to their squad ahead of the current season but have been linked to several midfielders ahead of the winter transfer window. One target is said to be Man City’s Kalvin Phillips as the England star is expected to leave the Etihad but according to Gazzetta dello Sport, Liverpool are “obsessed” about signing Boca Juniors midfielder Ezequiel Fernandez despite interest in the player from…
As well as being three of the most successful football clubs in English football history, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea have something far more niche in common in 2023/24. None of these illustrious sides has yet converted an Opta-defined high turnover into a goal. Per the data provider’s definition, this situation relates to starting an open play sequence no more than 40 meters from goal. The turnover aspect, therefore, relates to the opposing side losing possession in a dangerous area. The thoughts of Erik ten Hag and Mauricio Pochettino on their respective team’s profligacy on this front remain unknown. However,…
There are a few reasons why Liverpool striker Darwin Núñez hasn’t quite hit the goalscoring heights you would expect from a $106m (£87m/€100m) number nine just yet, chief among them his wastefulness in front of goal. While Reds supporters have been patient with the Uruguayan, there’s no hiding from the fact that he’s missed 26 big chances in the Premier League alone. Núñez, however, might argue that the reason he hasn’t been able to compete near the top of the scoring charts is that his minutes have been limited. As we covered yesterday, he’s only started 22 of the 47…
