Konate Throws Liverpool Gauntlet Down To Kabak

A penny for Ozan Kabak thought's? After a rocky opening few games in his Liverpool career, the recently turned 21-year-old defender has exuded calm and confidence -- far belying his tender years -- in his most recent appearances. It was taken for granted that the Turkish international, who is on loan from Germany's Schalke, would have...

International Break To Provide Liverpool With Rare Boost

For many years, Liverpool fans would watch football during the international break between the cracks of their fingers.

Why Liverpool shouldn’t sign Patson Daka
