FC KTP Visão geral

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has sent a clear message to new manager Andoni Iraola, insisting the club must enter the transfer market for a specialist defensive midfielder before the deadline. The former Reds captain believes the lack of a genuine anchor has left the team vulnerable following a mixed start to the new Premier League campaign.

Harvey Elliott is closing in on a move away from Liverpool after reaching an agreement on personal terms with Spanish side Valencia. The 23-year-old midfielder has communicated his desire to leave Anfield before the transfer deadline following a difficult period under the new regime.

Virgil van Dijk has labelled Liverpool's fifth-place finish in the Premier League last season as completely unacceptable. The club captain has urged his team-mates to improve rapidly while asking for patience as the squad adapt to the new tactics and training methods introduced by recently appointed head coach Andoni Iraola ahead of their next match.
