Nico Schlotterbeck is in no rush to commit his long-term future to Borussia Dortmund. According to reports from Germany, the Black and Yellow have already tabled a new offer for their star defender, but Schlotterbeck is adamant on not making a premature decision. The likes of Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid have expressed in signing the 25-year-old.

Liverpool, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona have been joined by Serie A heavyweights Inter in the race to sign Marc Guehi. The Crystal Palace star, who will leave the club as a free agent next summer, could arrive at San Siro in January in a surprise transfer exchange, which would see Inter's Yann Bisseck move the other way.

Alexander Isak was left “so f*cking dissatisfied” after seeing Sweden booed by their own supporters during another abject display in World Cup qualifying. Jon Dahl Tomasson’s side appear destined to miss out on next summer’s tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico, with Liverpool striker Isak admitting that their recent performances have been “embarrassing”.

Manchester United have been warned that Luke Shaw's "laziness" could cost the Red Devils dearly against Mohamed Salah and Liverpool. The Red Devils, led by Ruben Amorim, enter the showdown buoyed by a much-needed win before the international break. But standing in their way is a Liverpool side desperate to shake off a run of three consecutive defeats, and the odds and form make this one a powder keg waiting to blow.

Liverpool star Ibrahima Konate has revealed that he is "too afraid" to spend heavily on luxuries despite earning a reported £70,000-per-week at Anfield. The French defender is in the final year of his existing deal and has yet to agree to put pen to paper on a new Reds contract. Konate has attracted interest from Real Madrid, but he is yet to make a final decision on his future in the Premier League.

Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo has been told to contribute more on the left flank as the Reds continue to struggle defensively in the 2025-26 season. Arne Slot's side made a perfect start to their title defence campaign but have now faltered in the past few weeks as they have lost three matches in a row across all competitions against Crystal Palace, Galatasaray and Chelsea.

Liverpool face an anxious wait over Ryan Gravenberch's fitness after the midfielder was substituted at half-time during the Netherlands' World Cup qualifier against Finland on Sunday. The Dutchman has emerged as one of the Reds' most important players under Arne Slot, and the injury comes at an inopportune time; the Premier League champions have lost all of their last three fixtures.

Liverpool have been warned that they could quickly lose Alexander Isak, as Barcelona might consider a transfer for the Swedish striker once veteran No.9 Robert Lewandowski leaves the club. The forward could be set to go when his contract expires next summer, as the Catalan giants are not expected to offer a new contract to the 37-year-old ahead of the expiry of his current deal.

Ex-Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp will receive the 2025 Walther Bensemann Prize, a prestigious German football honour awarded to personalities who embody human values, intercultural understanding, and fair play beyond sporting success. The award celebrates Klopp’s leadership, authenticity and his enduring love for football’s roots, qualities that have made the German one of the most respected figures in world football.

Liverpool have reportedly held positive talks with Borussia Dortmund’s Nico Schlotterbeck as they accelerate their search for a new centre-back following Giovanni Leoni’s season-ending ACL injury. However, Bayern Munich are also keeping tabs on the Germany international, meaning the Reds could face stiff competition in the upcoming January transfer window.

Florian Wirtz’s record-breaking move to Liverpool has sparked intense scrutiny after a slow start in England. The 22-year-old, hailed as one of Germany’s brightest footballing talents, has yet to score or assist in 10 appearances for the Reds, drawing unfair “flop” labels. But Ilkay Gundogan has leapt to his defence, calling such criticism “completely exaggerated” and insisting that those doubting Wirtz “don’t understand football.”

Lyon winger Malick Fofana "belongs" at a cub like Liverpool or Manchester City, according to his agent, with the Belgium international earning comparisons to Kylian Mbappe and Lamine Yamal. The youngster's representative revealed he had offers from Everton and Fulham but opted to reject the Premier League duo in order to continue his development in Ligue 1.

Crystal Palace stunned Liverpool by cancelling Marc Guehi’s £35 million ($47m) deadline day move to Anfield, with Palace chairman Steve Parish revealing his side's maiden European campaign was the key factor. Parish stressed that keeping the England captain was crucial for the Eagles’ season, despite the allure of a big-money transfer, highlighting the unique circumstances behind the dramatic last-minute U-turn.
