Bayern Munich forward Luis Diaz lit up with joy when handed a customised PlayStation 5 controller dedicated to his late friend and former Liverpool teammate, Diogo Jota.

Hugo Ekitike has opened up on swiftly adapting to his new surroundings at Liverpool after matching Daniel Strurridge's 12-year-old record at Anfield.

Liverpool could face stiff competition to sign Marc Guehi on a free transfer next summer, with Bayern Munich reportedly weighing up a move for the Crystal Palace defender.

Liverpool have secured a big victory off the pitch after it was revealed the club only had to part with a small sum this summer in order to land both Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak.
