The Reds have made three midfield acquisitions so far this summer in Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and Wataru Endo. They’ve also waved goodbye to Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, James Milner, Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Arthur Melo, leaving Jurgen Klopp with a deficit of three in terms of engine room depth this season. Klopp and the Reds’ hierarchy are still in the market for another player before Friday’s deadline passes, with a ‘multi-functional’ midfielder supposedly being sought. But who could it be? Here are five of the most reported on targets ranked by likelihood of a deal happening. As reported by…
Manchester United have done some good work in the transfer market this summer but enter its final few days scrambling for reinforcements. Injury to Luke Shaw opened up a major gap at left-back, with Tyrell Malacia also out while Brandon Williams has joined Ipswich Town on loan. Diogo Dalot was moved across against Nottingham Forest on Saturday but United are looking for a short-term fix. Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella and Sergio Reguilon of Tottenham are being considered for loan moves, with both clubs looking to offload their fringe players. Marcos Alonso of Barcelona has also been linked with United. Fenerbahce goalkeeper…
Alisson Becker wants Liverpool to carry forward the same desire and unity that was on display in the Reds’ remarkable comeback victory over Newcastle United. Darwin Nunez’s late double saw Jürgen Klopp’s side depart St. James’ Park on Sunday with a memorable three points from what was a topsy-turvy Premier League encounter. Anthony Gordon had opened the scoring in the first half for the hosts, before Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk received a red card for a foul on Alexander Isak moments later. But Klopp’s charges rallied to secure the win with the help of Nunez and Alisson, with the…
There’s now just five days left to go until the end of the 2023 summer transfer window and Premier League clubs do not look like they are going to stop spending any time soon. Manchester United have been among the highest spenders this summer but Erik ten Hag is still keen to add more new names to his squad. He wants a new midfielder and is chasing Fiorentina star Sofyan Amrabat. Elsewhere, a left-back is also on the Red Devils’ shortlist with Chelsea flop Marc Cucurella among the names that they could move for before the end of the window. Speaking of…
The 24-year-old forward posted on Instagram to celebrate a dramatic 2-1 win at St. James’ Park. With ten minutes left on the clock, it looked like Newcastle were going to see out an important win. They had been the better team in the first half, with Anthony Gordon capitalising on a Trent Alexander-Arnold mistake to score a well-deserved goal. There’s an argument that Alexander-Arnold shouldn’t have even been on the pitch at that point, getting away with a foul that maybe deserved a booking when he had already been shown a yellow card. However, Jurgen Klopp turned to Darwin Nunez off the bench to…
Tottenham and Newcastle are reportedly set for a late transfer window battle for PSV Eindhoven winger Johan Bakayoko. The Premier League duo are apparently eyeing a move for the winger that could come down to Friday’s transfer deadline. Bakayoko has caught the attention of some of Europe’s biggest clubs with his performances in Holland. The 20-year-old scored nine goals and provided six assists in all competitions last season. He already has four assists this term, with each coming in just three Champions League qualifying matches. Spurs and Newcastle are reportedly interested in striking a deal with PSV over the next…
Eddie Howe admits his latest defeat to Jurgen Klopp was as “painful” as Newcastle United’s loss at Liverpool last season. Darwin Nunez came off the bench to score twice late and wipe out Anthony Gordon’s first-half opener in a dramatic 2-1 Premier League victory for the 10-man Reds at St James’ Park on Sunday afternoon. It echoed Newcastle’s defeat at Liverpool almost 12 months previously when they conceded an injury-time goal to lose by the same scoreline having taken the lead. And Howe – who has now lost 11 successive games against Klopp – said: “Absolutely that is as painful…
Liverpool have been urged to move for Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo if Mohamed Salah does complete a late move to Saudi Arabia. The Egyptian forward has been linked with a big-money transfer to Al-Ittihad that could leave the Reds short, potentially forcing them into the market as they look to replace Salah. Liverpool already have Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota, Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez competing for spots in the front three, but all prefer to play either centrally or on the left wing – with youngster Ben Doak the preferred option when Salah has been rotated out of the team.…
The No.9 came off the bench and scored twice late on in the second half to see the Reds overcome Anthony Gordon’s 25th-minute opener and then the sending-off of Virgil van Dijk. Nunez was satisfied with his own contribution in the game but wanted to deflect the post-match attention towards his teammates for battling so hard when down a player. Speaking to Sky Sports afterwards, the striker said: “I feel very good. Very happy for the team, for the dedication of my teammates. They fought very well after the red card, which [meant] we had to play with 10 players.…
