Theo Walcott has admitted that he was surprised that Liverpool did not make a move for James Ward-Prowse before he joined West Ham in the summer transfer window. Walcott was speaking on Sky Sports (broadcast on 3/9; 19:28) with his former Southampton team-mate making a brilliant start to life at the London Stadium. James Ward-Prowse has certainly taken little time to prove himself to the West Ham fans. The 28-year-old was a standout for the Saints last season. But following their relegation, there may have been some concerns amongst supporters about whether he would be able to step up. However, Ward-Prowse…
Once again, Real Madrid were linked with a move for Kylian Mbappe this summer. And once again, the rumours led pretty much nowhere. It had looked like the Frenchman was on his way out of PSG for a while but now there are suggestions that he could even be open to signing a new contract with the club, in an interesting turn of events. Of course, that is a blow to Real Madrid’s hopes of signing him as a free agent next summer. And also raises questions about whether a move for Mbappe is going to happen in the future…
The final days of the transfer window made it clear that Liverpool’s next priority will be to replace Mohamed Salah. Whether in January next year or in the summer, sooner or later the club has to resign itself to the fact that Salah will leave Anfield for pastures new. He is already 31 years old, and with the Saudi Arabian market vying for his services, it is only a matter of time until Liverpool gets an offer that is impossible to refuse. What that offer will look like remains to be seen. But it will almost be guaranteed to be enough for…
If Mohamed Salah felt at all distracted by transfer speculation regarding his future, having seen Liverpool reject an £150m Al-Ittihad bid, against Aston Villa he certainly didn’t show it. It was business as usual for the Egyptian against the Villans as he helped fire Jurgen Klopp’s side to a routine 3-0 win. Flourishing as a playmaker this season, only the woodwork denied him a further two assists as Darwin Nunez hit both the post and the crossbar after twice being set up by the Egyptian. At least the Uruguayan’s first strike was diverted in inadvertently by defender Matty Cash to double…
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he has no doubts over Mohamed Salah’s future amid interest from Saudi Arabia after the forward scored in their 3-0 home win over Aston Villa. Salah shrugged off transfer speculation to hit Liverpool’s third in the victory as Al Ittihad consider whether to make an improved offer for the 31-year-old after having had a £150m bid rejected by the Reds on Friday. The Saudi transfer window closes on Thursday but Klopp is confident Salah will remain at the club despite one source telling Sky Sports News that Al Ittihad are prepared to go to £200m to sign…
ANFIELD, LIVERPOOL // In what looked like it might be a difficult fixture, Liverpool’s players put in the kind of complete performance against Aston Villa that inspires plenty of hope that silverware can return to Anfield this season. Time will tell whether or not Jürgen Klopp has assembled a squad strong enough to properly compete with Manchester City for the Premier League title, but there was more positive evidence here that the Reds are going to be compelling viewing. Now with an energetic and impactful midfield and an attack worthy of any team in the world, the signs are excellent. Goals…
Jurgen Klopp has singled out Mohamed Salah for praise after Liverpool thrashed Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon. The Reds picked up a 3-0 win at Anfield after goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Mohamed Salah. Szoboszlai opened the scoring with a brilliant effort inside the opening three minutes of the game, before Matty Cash turned the ball into his own net just 20 minutes later. Salah rounded off an impressive win for Liverpool as he arrived at the back post at the perfect time after Darwin Nunez’s flicked header from a corner. Of course, Salah has dominated the headlines over the past week after a £150…
Mohamed Salah scored in Liverpool’s 3-0 home win over Aston Villa despite speculation over his future amid strong interest from Saudi Arabia. Just 48 hours after Liverpool rejected a £150m bid from Al Ittihad for Salah on Deadline Day, the Egyptian blasted home from close range in the second half to add a third and maintain the Reds’ unbeaten start. With the Saudi transfer window closing on Thursday, Liverpool will be hoping Salah’s goal will not be his last for the club with Al Ittihad potentially submitting an improved offer for the 31-year-old. One source has told Sky Sports News that…
Liverpool will need a massive signing for the right wing position when Mohamed Salah eventually ends up leaving the club. The Egyptian superstar has been heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia and the Reds have been tipped to agree the signing of Bukayo Saka to replace him. Arsenal legend, Paul Merson, believes the Merseysiders should sell the former Roma man and then use the funds to lure the Gunner. Salah has broken several Premier League records for the Anfield club and last season, the 31-year-old netted 30 goals in all competitions and also provided 16 assists. On the…
