Liverpool have been urged to consider a move for West Ham United captain Jarrod Bowen if they decide to move on from Mohamed Salah in the near future.

Jarrod Bowen may be poised to break Danny Dyer’s heart in 2026, former West Ham striker Bobby Zamora has told GOAL, with it impossible to rule out a transfer to another Premier League club.

Manchester United boss Michael Carrick appears to have rejected the prospect of the Red Devils travelling to the Middle East for a lucrative mid-season friendly, per a new report.

A former Manchester United midfielder believes the club would be mad to not make Michael Carrick manager on a permanent basis following his incredible start to the job since succeeding Ruben Amorim - unless they can lure one of two Champions League-winning coaches to Old Trafford. Carrick has won all four of his matches since being named United boss for the remainder of the season in January.

January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule.
