Micky van de Ven (Tottenham) With Marc Guehi now off the market after completing a move to Manchester City, a number of centre-backs are expected to be linked with Liverpool ahead of the summer window, when the club is likely to strengthen in that area. The Daily Mail reports that Tottenham and Netherlands defender Micky van de Ven is among the names being considered, with Liverpool potentially testing Spurs’ determination to retain the 24-year-old once the season concludes. Van de Ven had previously been on Liverpool’s radar before joining Tottenham. Despite being tied down to a contract running until 2029,…

Mohamed Salah marked his return to Liverpool action on Wednesday, but it was Dominik Szoboszlai who emerged as the standout performer as Arne Slot’s side moved closer to automatic qualification for the Champions League last 16 with an emphatic 3-0 victory in Marseille. Much of the pre-match focus was on Salah’s first start since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, as well as his much-discussed clash with Slot back in December, yet the Egyptian endured a largely disappointing evening. Liverpool, however, delivered one of their most convincing all-round displays in recent months, with Szoboszlai playing a central role. The…
The Italian forward was listed among Arne Slot’s nine substitutes when Liverpool’s starting line-up was revealed 75 minutes before kick-off, with the main talking point being Mo Salah’s return to the XI for the first time in eight weeks. Although the 28-year-old has featured as a substitute in three European games this season, he will not be increasing that number at the Stade Velodrome. Chiesa suffers injury during warm-up in Marseille Less than ten minutes after the match began, news emerged that Chiesa had been injured during the warm-up. Sky Sports reporter Vinny O’Connor relayed the update via the broadcaster’s…
Mamadou Sarr’s rise from squad understudy to continental champion unfolded in extraordinary circumstances after Kalidou Koulibaly’s injury at the Africa Cup of Nations handed the young defender an unexpected chance. The 20-year-old centre-back, currently on loan at Strasbourg from Chelsea, grasped the moment and played a key role in Senegal’s march to AFCON glory. Sarr’s senior international story only began in November, when he made his debut for Senegal in an emphatic 8–0 friendly win over Kenya. His assured performance left a strong impression on head coach Pape Thiaw, who subsequently included him in the AFCON squad, convinced of his…
Raheem Sterling looks increasingly likely to seal a surprise exit from Chelsea before the January transfer window closes in early February. The veteran winger has been frozen out at Stamford Bridge since Enzo Maresca took charge in the summer of 2024, becoming part of the so-called “bomb squad,” and his situation has shown little improvement following the arrival of new head coach Liam Rosenior. Although Rosenior has spoken about holding discussions with Sterling regarding his future, the 31-year-old has yet to feature in a single matchday squad since the manager officially began work on January 7, underlining how far he…
“I was genuinely blown away by his performance — every pass, shot, and touch was spot on,” Gerrard said. “At last, he played like the footballer Liverpool signed.” “He was outstanding.” Those remarks alone sent a wave of excitement through supporters, but the wider context makes Gerrard’s praise even more significant. A display that demanded attention From the first whistle, Szoboszlai looked transformed. More focused. More assertive. More commanding. He took responsibility, set the rhythm, and played as if the match revolved around him. His distribution was crisp, his forward balls purposeful, and his movement consistently created space for others.…
Liverpool’s recent signing Milos Kerkez has dismissed suggestions that he and Cody Gakpo are failing to combine effectively on the pitch. Supporters had begun to speculate that the Dutch forward often overlooks Kerkez’s overlapping runs, particularly in attacking situations down the left. Addressing the talk in a media appearance, the Hungarian full-back played down any concerns, explaining that there is no issue between the two. He said his responsibility is to provide width, stretch the opposition and offer passing options, while the final decision on how attacks develop rests with the player on the ball. Kerkez emphasised that their relationship…
In a candid and emotional revelation that has stirred strong reactions around Anfield, teenage prospect Rio Ngumoha has spoken openly about his difficult experience at Liverpool, admitting he feels ignored, undervalued, and sidelined despite giving his all in training. “I don’t feel noticed in this team,” Ngumoha admitted. “I work as hard as I can every day, but the opportunities never come. Eventually, you start wondering what else you’re meant to do.” His honesty has sparked widespread discussion among supporters, academy followers, and former players, with growing concern that Liverpool could once again risk losing a promising young talent before…
“People were cruel and overly critical toward me… they pushed me out of the team,” Elliott revealed, speaking with raw emotion. “This had nothing to do with football or my performances. It went far deeper than that — it was personal.” For the first time, the former Liverpool midfielder has spoken openly about the silent hurt he endured, far from the spotlight and media attention. A player who grew up idolising Anfield, who proudly wore the badge and gave his all whenever he played, explained that his departure stemmed from unresolved issues within the dressing room rather than anything on…
According to journalist Uriel Iugt, Paris Saint-Germain have opened lines of communication with Enzo Fernández’s camp as they weigh up a potential summer move for the Chelsea midfielder. The Ligue 1 giants are said to hold a strong interest in the Argentina international, although talks so far have been informal and at an early stage. PSG are aware that prising Fernández away from Stamford Bridge would be difficult, not least because he is contracted to Chelsea until 2032. It is also unclear how the midfielder feels about a switch to Paris, though earlier reports have suggested he could reconsider his…
