Liverpool news

Inter and Juventus are gearing up for an intense transfer battle this summer as both Serie A giants prioritise signing a world-class goalkeeper. With both clubs facing defensive uncertainties, recent reports indicate that Liverpool star Alisson Becker has emerged as their primary target. A return to Italy for the Brazilian could finally solve their respective goalkeeping crises.

Arsenal might be leading the way on the pitch as they chase a first Premier League title in over two decades, but off it, they have secured a much less desirable accolade. A comprehensive new study has revealed that the Gunners’ faithful have been named the most disliked fanbase in the English top flight. The research, which highlights the tribal nature of modern football, suggests that the north London club’s return to the summit of the game has brought with it a significant wave of external hostility from rival supporters across social media platforms.

Liverpool are sensationally considering a massive transfer U-turn that could see Jarell Quansah return to Anfield just one year after his departure, according to reports. The 23-year-old England international made the move to Bayer Leverkusen last summer in a deal worth £35 million, but his meteoric rise in the Bundesliga has forced the Reds' hierarchy to rethink their long-term defensive strategy.

Liverpool boss Arne Slot has admitted his "football heart" is struggling to adjust to the ways of a modern Premier League, claiming the division’s growing obsession with set-piece routines is making matches a chore to watch. The Dutchman, who won the title in his first season at Anfield, believes the tactical shift toward crowded goalmouths and physical dead-ball plays has turned the English top flight into an outlier compared to its European counterparts. Despite Liverpool’s own recent success from corners, Slot warned that this "new reality" is set to dominate the landscape for the foreseeable future.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed that the club's marquee summer signing Florian Wirtz is set for a further spell on the sidelines. The Germany international, who has become a pivotal figure at Anfield since his high-profile arrival from Bayer Leverkusen, is battling a back injury that has already seen him miss key victories over Nottingham Forest and West Ham. With the Reds preparing for a double-header against Wolves at Molineux, Slot suggested the playmaker remains a major doubt for both the Premier League and FA Cup fixtures.

Liverpool forward Hugo Ekitike has sent a chilling warning to Premier League defenders by claiming he is "not that happy" with his goalscoring return this season, despite having already reached 16 goals in all competitions. The Frenchman was the star of the show as the Reds dismantled West Ham 5-2 at Anfield on Saturday, but the summer signing remains convinced that there is significant room for improvement in his game as the season reaches its climax.

Arne Slot has revealed he does not expect Florian Wirtz to have recovered from his injury in time for Liverpool's next fixture against Wolves. The German playmaker was absent from the Reds squad on Saturday afternoon for the 5-2 win over West Ham United due to a back problem and his manager is not confident he will have the former Bayern Leverkusen star available for their next Premier League game on Tuesday.

Liverpool beat West Ham United 5-2 in a remarkable Premier League fixture on Saturday. Arne Slot's side were indebted to the magic of Hugo Ekitike, who scored and assisted in a nervy defensive display, as the Reds let the Hammers back into the game not once but twice.

Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool, among others, have been told how much it will cost to lure Newcastle's star players away from St. James' Park this summer. A host of key Magpies players have been linked with departures in recent months as Premier League rivals seek to exploit their sub-par season to boost their own respective squads.

Mohamed Salah is "increasingly likely" to leave Liverpool this summer as the Reds look to avoid losing the Egypt international on a free next year. Salah has a little over 12 months left to run on the two-year contract extension he signed last April and Liverpool would be happier to cash in on the forward rather than let him see out his deal.

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has issued a prickly response to rumours linking Anthony Gordon with a big money transfer away from St. James' Park. Gordon is reportedly on Liverpool's radar as the Reds weigh up a move for the England international in a bid to rectify their left wing issues. The defending champions aren't the only side reportedly keen on the former Everton man, however.

Liverpool boss Arne Slot has sought to defend Mohamed Salah from critics of his recent output, with the Dutchman pointing out that Hugo Ekitike and Cody Gakpo have hardly been prolific of late. The Reds are hoping to see their attacking unit rediscover a spark in domestic and European competition, with the business end of another thrilling campaign being reached.
