Liverpool news

Liverpool are in talks with Mohamed Salah regarding a return to club action. The Egyptian superstar has been away on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations since mid-December. A heartbreaking semi-final exit from that competition has been suffered against Senegal. The Pharaohs still have a third-place play-off to take in, after which their talismanic captain will be cleared to head back to England.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has admitted that the club’s hierarchy is "aligned" on the challenges facing his squad following the devastating injury to Conor Bradley. The Northern Irish defender faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines after a controversial incident involving Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli during the heated 0-0 draw at the Emirates. With the January window open, Slot has addressed the growing clamour for defensive reinforcements as his side prepares to face Burnley.

Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has told GOAL why the Reds could get rid of both Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk in the summer of 2026. Arne Slot is expected to be granted license to build for the future on Merseyside, with the reigning Premier League champions looking to “indulge” the likes of Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz as “old top men” move on.

Andy Robertson has cast serious doubt over his Liverpool future, admitting he needs to "sit down with my family and decide" his next move as his contract ticks down. The Scotland captain, who has lost his starting spot to Milos Kerkez this season, insisted he is "a player who wants to play" and hinted that his reduced role under Arne Slot could force him to look elsewhere after almost nine trophy-laden years at Anfield.

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot is facing fresh scrutiny over his treatment of Federico Chiesa, with the winger's former mentor branding the Dutchman's selection policy a "mystery." As the Italian international closes in on a sensational return to Juventus this month, questions are being asked about why a player perfectly suited to the Premier League was left in the cold at Anfield.

Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has explained to GOAL how Jurgen Klopp could make a sensational return to Anfield. The German coach left Merseyside in the summer of 2024, and saw successor Arne Slot savour Premier League title glory in his first season at the helm. A stunning retracing of steps for Klopp has been speculated on, with it impossible to rule anything out.

Arne Slot can't catch a break right now. Barnsley at home in the FA Cup should have made for a comfortable Monday evening for the under-pressure Liverpool boss. Dominik Szoboszlai had other ideas, though. Having earlier broken the deadlock with a thumping strike from distance before Jeremie Frimpong netted his first goal at Anfield with an equally emphatic finish, the Hungarian gifted Liverpool's third-tier opponents a goal just before the break with one of the most inexplicable errors you'll ever see on a football field.

Liverpool will have to wait a little while longer to welcome Mohamed Salah back at Anfield despite Egypt's Africa Cup of Nations exit at the hands of Senegal. The Pharoahs suffered semi-final heartbreak in Morocco on Wednesday night as Salah's former Reds co-star Sadio Mane fired home a clinical late winner to send his country to the final.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp has blamed his father, Harry, for supplying him false information ahead of an on-air gaffe in which he claimed Antoine Semenyo could reject a move to Manchester City in favour of joining Liverpool. Redknapp Jr. has claimed that, briefly, he believed he'd "turned into Fabrizio Romano".

Wrexham took a trip to Liverpool on Tuesday afternoon for a friendly clash at the Premier League champions' AXA Training Centre. Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac's side faced an Under-21 Liverpool team and returned home after a 1-1 draw. Club legend Paul Mullin, who has been recalled to Wrexham after a loan spell with Wigan Athletic, featured along with former Red Conor Coady and ex-Burnley man Jay Rodriguez.

Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would reportedly "seriously consider" replacing Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid if they come calling. Alonso has left the Bernabeu after just eight months in charge, with Alvaro Arbeloa taking charge of the team. Klopp is currently working as the Head of Global Soccer at Red Bull, but it has been claimed he could be tempted back into football management by Real Madrid.

Manchester United are being urged to explore potential routes into the exciting new NBA Europe project that could be worth around $50 billion (£37bn). A potentially lucrative venture is being pitched by the National Basketball Association, with the plan being to create 12 franchises - and four teams that qualify without owning equity - which would be valued at up to $1 billion (£743m) each. Premier League giants United have been advised to join discussions regarding a crossover enterprise.
