Arne Slot is nursing another injury headache at Liverpool, with the Reds boss announcing that a knock sustained by Wataru Endo looks to be a “serious one”. It has been stated that the outlook “doesn’t look good” for the versatile Japan international. He was forced out of a Premier League clash with Sunderland and is facing up to a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Virgil van Dijk has issued a passionate plea to defensive partner Ibrahima Konate, urging the "world-class" centre-back to commit his future to Liverpool as his contract ticks down towards expiry. The Reds captain admits the negotiation process is "never easy" but insists the Frenchman is vital to Arne Slot’s vision, amid growing fears he could leave for free this summer.
Arne Slot has told Liverpool's attacking players it would "be nice" if they started scoring more goals to make winning matches "more simple". The Reds secured a narrow 1-0 win over Sunderland on Wednesday night to keep themselves in the hunt for a top-four finish, and while the Dutchman was pleased with the result, he's urged the Merseysiders to be more clinical.
Liverpool closed the gap on those above them in the Premier League's top-five race as Virgil van Dijk's header secured a 1-0 win over Sunderland on Wednesday. Arne Slot's side became the first visiting team to win at the Stadium of Light this season while taking advantage of both Chelsea and Manchester United dropping points 24 hours earlier.
Arne Slot insists his position as Liverpool head coach is secure even if the Reds fail to qualify for the Champions League, despite admitting such a failure would be "unacceptable". The Dutchman believes the club's hierarchy will look beyond results to the wider "circumstances" of a traumatic season, citing the patience shown to Jurgen Klopp as a precedent for his own survival.
On Sunday at Anfield, Liverpool lost to Manchester City for the second time this season. Arne Slot insisted after the 2-1 defeat that "the improvement" in his side since their demoralising 3-0 drubbing at the Etihad in November was "visible for everyone to see" and there were certainly some positive signs in the second half - but they still suffered a now almost-customary collapse in the closing stages.
Liverpool are holding off from making a transfer move for RB Leipzig star Yan Diomande due to contractual complications. The Reds are thought to be keen on the 19-year-old Ivory Coast international, who has scored seven Bundesliga goals so far this season, but the Merseysiders will wait to make their play due to some uncertainty over his personal situation. RB Leipzig reportedly value Diomande at €100 million (£87.15m/$118m), with the German side not looking to sell him unless a truly lucrative offer arrives.
Mohamed Salah is reportedly in talks with Saudi Pro League giants Al-Ittihad over a potential move in the summer transfer window. The Egyptian has been a long-term target for Saudi Arabian clubs since the Public Investment Fund (PIF) first started pouring cash into the country's top league and Salah, who has endured a tetchy and difficult season at Liverpool, is wanted as their next marquee signing this year.

Liverpool fans never fully appreciated Luis Diaz. Indeed, most of them seemed to welcome the Colombian's departure to Bayern Munich last summer, believing that his sale was necessary to accommodate £116 million ($158m) signing Florian Wirtz, with Cody Gakpo still on hand to fill the first-choice role on the left flank.
Manchester City defender Marc Guehi admits he was left baffled by the hostile reception he received from Liverpool fans during Sunday’s dramatic win at Anfield. The England star played a key role in ending City’s 23-year wait for a win in front of the Kop but was jeered throughout, a reaction he claims to not understand despite rejecting a move to Merseyside in favour of the champions last summer.
Erling Haaland has brutally assessed his own recent performances for Manchester City, refusing to use burnout as an excuse for his ongoing goal drought from open play. The Norwegian striker fired City to a dramatic victory at Anfield to reignite the title race but insists he must be "sharper" and deliver goals rather than looking for easy outs regarding the schedule.
We still have a title race in England! Manchester City's hopes of winning the Premier League looked to be over after they fell behind to another stunning free-kick from Dominik Szoboszlai at Anfield on Sunday, but Pep Guardiola's men produce a sensational fightback to defeat Liverpool 2-1 and close the game to leaders Arsenal to just six points.
Jeremy Jacquet is Liverpool-bound, having agreed a £60 million ($82m) transfer to the Premier League heavyweights, but his 2025-26 season could be over at Rennes. The highly-rated- 20-year-old is due to see out the current campaign in his native France before making his way to Merseyside. However, an unfortunate injury has been sustained, with it being suggested that surgery will be required.
Wayne Rooney has compared the chaotic VAR drama during Liverpool’s clash with Manchester City to a Winter Olympics event. The former England captain admitted that while officials followed the rules to disallow Rayan Cherki’s late strike, the intervention "ruined" a classic moment as City ran out 2-1 winners in the Premier League clash at Anfield.
Pep Guardiola called on his Manchester City stars to "have a coffee" to find more composure in front of goal after a breathless 2-1 comeback win at Anfield. Despite securing a vital victory that cuts Arsenal’s lead at the summit to six points, the City boss was critical of his side's frantic nature in both boxes. Erling Haaland’s late penalty eventually sealed a dramatic turnaround against the reigning champions.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot was left raging at a “clear” red card for Manchester City defender Marc Guehi after seeing the Reds suffer a dramatic defeat to Pep Guardiola’s side at Anfield. Dominik Szoboszlai was dismissed during a chaotic end to that contest, but Slot is of the opinion that City should have been reduced to 10 men when Mohamed Salah was denied a “100 out of 100 scoring ball”.
Roy Keane has slammed Manchester City's "disrespectful" behaviour following their 2-1 victory over Liverpool at Anfield. The Manchester United icon was left fuming after City players blared loud music from their dressing room, disrupting Arne Slot’s post-match interview. Keane labelled the scenes "ridiculous" and urged Pep Guardiola’s side to show more class after a highly controversial and dramatic encounter.
Just when you thought Manchester City were dropping out of this Premier League title race for good, Bernardo Silva and Erling Haaland pulled them back in, leaving Liverpool shell-shocked and Arsenal nervously checking over their shoulders. City have never enjoyed playing at Anfield, but Sunday's was a performance like no other, and with an outcome not seen since all the way back in 2003.
Manchester City match-winner Erling Haaland has spoken out against the decision to disallow Rayan Cherki's goal against Liverpool deep in stoppage time, with Dominik Szoboszlai instead sent off for a foul in the build-up. With Haaland running through on goal, the Norwegian and Szoboszlai each took turns in pulling each other back and the City striker criticised the Premier League ruling that meant the goal was not allowed to stand, following a VAR check.
Liverpool threw away victory in the final 10 minutes against Manchester City as they slipped to a 2-1 defeat on Sunday. Dominik Szoboszlai's stunning free-kick put the Reds in front in the second half, but late goals from Bernardo Silva and Erling Haaland turned the game on its head as the Reds lost ground to Manchester United and Chelsea in the top-four race.
Marc Guehi has no regrets over his collapsed move to Liverpool in the summer, insisting it was ‘God’s Plan’ that he ended up at Manchester City. The former Crystal Palace defender and captain joined Pep Guardiola’s team in January for around £20 million and has slotted straight into the starting line-up as he hunts a first Premier League title of his career.
New Liverpool defender Jeremy Jacquet appeared to sustain a serious shoulder injury during Rennes' clash with Lens, just days after confirming his move to Anfield. The Reds have agreed a deal worth £60 million ($82m) to sign the centre-back this summer but he now faces a significant lay-off.
Cristiano Ronaldo is being tipped to leave Al-Nassr in the summer transfer window if Liverpool star Mohamed Salah makes the switch to the Saudi Pro League. The Portugal superstar's future at the club is currently in doubt amid a protest against the Public Investment Fund (PIF) over transfers which has seen Ronaldo left out of his club's last two league matches.
