Florian Wirtz's agent has revealed that he called Xabi Alonso and asked him to take the Germany star with him to Real Madrid before he signed for Liverpool. Wirtz ended up joining the Reds instead in a deal worth £116 million ($156m). Alonso has since departed the Santiago Bernabeu, and been replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa, but the player's agent is still hoping he can go on and play for Los Blancos in the future.

Inter’s European journey came to a shuddering and unexpected halt at San Siro on Tuesday night as Norwegian minnows Bodo/Glimt pulled off a historic upset. Despite entering the second leg as heavy favourites, the Nerazzurri failed to overturn a first-leg deficit, eventually falling to a 5-2 aggregate defeat. While the shock result sent shockwaves through the football world, midfield talisman Nicolo Barella was quick to point the finger at a controversial officiating decision from months prior as the true catalyst for their downfall.

The audio between the referee and video assistant referee during Manchester City's disallowed goal at Liverpool earlier this month has been released. Rayan Cherki thought he had scored to make it 3-1 and cap a memorable victory for the Cityzens, but a scuffle between Dominik Szoboszlai and Erling Haaland saw the goal chalked off and the Hungarian dismissed.

Mohamed Salah has been accused of behaving “like a big baby” during his Premier League goal drought at Liverpool by ex-England boss Sam Allardyce. The Egyptian superstar was benched by Arne Slot earlier in the season amid struggles for form. He has returned to favour since aiming an explosive blast at the Reds, but continues to find end product in the final third hard to come by.

Juventus are preparing for a massive shake-up between the sticks this summer after losing faith in Michele Di Gregorio. The Bianconeri are reportedly scouring the Premier League for a high-profile replacement, with Liverpool’s Alisson Becker emerging as a shock target alongside Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario. While Di Gregorio arrived from Monza with high expectations, a nightmare run of form has left the Old Lady’s hierarchy convinced that a world-class upgrade is required to restore the club's traditional defensive solidity.

James Milner has reached the pinnacle of Premier League longevity, but the Brighton veteran has revealed that he nearly walked away from the game just months before making history. The 40-year-old veteran officially became the division's all-time record appearance maker on Saturday, surpassing Gareth Barry's previous benchmark by starting in his 654th Premier League game during the Seagulls' clinical 2-0 victory over Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium.

Liverpool cult hero Emile Heskey believes that USMNT star Christian Pulisic could be a useful replacement for Mohamed Salah at Anfield. The American forward boasts Premier League experience from a stint at Chelsea and has starred in Italy for AC Milan. A return to England is being speculated on, with another winger potentially being required on Merseyside.

Arne Slot has delivered a brutally honest verdict on the role that teen sensation Rio Ngumoha has to play in Liverpool’s first-team squad. The exciting 17-year-old forward has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in 2025-26, recording his first senior goal, and many are calling for the youngster to see more game time as fellow wingers Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo struggle to find a spark.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot pulled no punches after his side snatched a dramatic 1-0 victory at Nottingham Forest, admitting that his team delivered their poorest showing of the season. Despite Alexis Mac Allister’s 97th-minute heroics, the Dutchman was visibly frustrated by a performance that was labelled a "horror show" by former Reds captain Jamie Carragher.

Arne Slot insists that Florian Wirtz has not sustained a "serious" injury after he was withdrawn from Liverpool's starting XI during the pre-match warm-ups before their 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest. The Germany international was replaced in the team by Curtis Jones and the Reds went on to snatch victory in the 96th minute.

Alexis Mac Allister scored a 96th-minute winner as Liverpool beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 at the City Ground on Sunday. The Argentina international thought he had won the game with two minutes left, only for VAR to rule it out, but the midfielder would not be denied, as the Reds consigned Forest to a damaging defeat, doing so without the injured Florian Wirtz.

Liverpool were dealt an injury blow just minutes before kick-off against Nottingham Forest on Sunday in the Premier League. Summer signing Florian Wirtz was named in the starting XI but was forced out of the game after sustaining an injury in the warm-up. Curtis Jones was subsequently called into the team to take over from the Germany international.
