Liverpool news

Liverpool missed the chance to climb into the Premier League's top four as they were held to a 1-1 draw by struggling Tottenham on Sunday. Dominik Szoboszlai's fourth direct free-kick goal of the season looked set to be the match-winner for Arne Slot's side, but Richarlison popped up in the final minute of normal time to steal a point for Spurs.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot opted for a significant shake-up of his starting XI ahead of Liverpool’s clash with Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield in Matchday 30 of the Premier League, making five changes from the side that fell to defeat against Galatasaray in the Champions League in midweek. The most notable omission is Mohamed Salah, whose recent dip in form has led to him losing his place in the line-up to teenage prodigy Rio Ngumoha.

Liverpool have reportedly triggered the 12-month option to extend Alisson's contract, ensuring the Brazilian remains on Merseyside for at least another season. The 33-year-old’s previous terms were set to expire this summer, which would have made him one of the most high-profile free agents on the market. Instead, he is now under contract through to the end of the 2026-27 campaign.

Former Arsenal star and current pundit Paul Merson has delivered a blunt assessment of the challenges facing Arne Slot at Liverpool. While the former Feyenoord boss hit the ground running in the Premier League, Merson believes that the grace period afforded to him will be remarkably short if silverware does not follow. Merson suggested that without trophies, Slot risks being viewed in the same light as managers who have struggled to make a lasting impact at Tottenham Hotspur.

Florian Wirtz rarely manages to replicate his stellar performances for Leverkusen at Liverpool. A former professional has some harsh words to say.

Borussia Dortmund CEO Lars Ricken has provided an update regarding the club's ongoing efforts to secure the future of Nico Schlotterbeck. The 26-year-old centre-back has developed into one of the Bundesliga's premier defenders, attracting significant interest from the likes of Real Madrid and Liverpool. As the Black and Yellows look to solidify their squad for the coming years, the internal pressure to finalise a deal with their defensive lynchpin is mounting, even as the player weighs his options for the next stage of his career.

Former England star Joe Cole has questioned Arne Slot’s decision to overhaul a title-winning Liverpool squad. Cole believes the Dutchman’s aggressive integration of several new players into the starting XI served to disrupt the Reds' natural rhythm and momentum.

Chelsea legend Ashley Cole is clearly a huge fan of Burnley defender Kyle Walker, crowning him as one of the best full-backs of the Premier League era. Asked by GOAL to choose among some of the star players to have played in the English top flight in that position, the former England international picked Walker as his No.1.

Arne Slot has reached the 100-game milestone as Liverpool head coach, but the landmark comes at a time of significant turbulence for the Dutchman at Anfield. Despite a record-breaking start to his tenure on Merseyside, the former Feyenoord boss is currently facing the most scrutiny of his career as the Reds' form continues to falter, with Slot bizarrely saying it's the "nicest club to struggle at".

This latest set of setbacks could leave the north London club without as many as 13 senior players.
