Sabitzer The Latest Bull to be Liverpool Red
Over the last year or so, Liverpool have had an exceptional record in tying down their key players to new deals.
Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane -- among others -- have all penned new contracts to see them remain at Anfield for the foreseeable future.
Absent from that list of renewals, however -- despite being just as key a cog to the Reds' winning machine as the aforementioned striking trio -- has been Dutch midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum.

There will be no fairytale return to Anfield for former Liverpool star
Liverpool will not be providing Philippe Coutinho with a route back to Anfield in the next transfer window according to David Maddock.
Coutinho has spent the last six months of his dwindling career on loan at Bundesliga giants FC Bayern. However, Bayern have all but confirmed that they will not be taking up the option to buy Coutinho permanently for €120 million after the loan deal expires.
Maddock wrote in his piece in the Mirror about the possibility of Coutinho …
David Alaba The Swiss Army Knife Liverpool Need
This upcoming transfer window — whenever that will be in the coronavirus paused footballing world — could well be Dejan Lovren’s last at Liverpool.
The Croat defender has proved a divisive player amongst the Reds fans since his £20M switch from Southampton in the summer of 2014 and his Anfield stint almost came to an end last summer as a move to Roma was apparently close.
However, the Giallorossi failed to agree a fee with Liverpool and Lovren — who …
Is Jurgen Klopp the Enemy of the Football League? Or it's Defender?
Whether you’re a Liverpool supporter or not, you’ll almost certainly have an opinion on Jurgen Klopp’s comments after (some) of his world champions drew 2-2 against a battling Shrewsbury at New Meadow Stadium. The main talking point from the game was the upcoming replay the Shrews had just valiantly earned themselves in fighting from 2-0 down. Klopp immediately dampened the tone stating, "We will not be there".
This was the most cutting line he delivered post-match as he used the …
Return of the Shaq - and why it's good news for Liverpool
It's been a long time since we saw any meaningful contribution from Xherdan Shaqiri in a Liverpool shirt.
In truth, it probably came in that memorable Champions League semi-final win over Barcelona at Anfield, when his beautiful curling cross was met by a thumping Gini Wijnaldum header to bring Liverpool level in the tie.
The Alpine Messi has been hampered by a niggling injury to one of those enormous calves of his and has barely featured this season for Klopp's …
Liverpool wants £37m-rated as Coutinho replacement
Bayern Munich will not be signing James Rodriguez for £37million this summer and reports from the Mirror claims that Liverpool want the Colombia international as a Philippe Coutinho replacement.
Coutinho left Liverpool in January 2018 and while Xherdan Shaqiri was signed as a direct replacement to the Brazilian, the former Stoke City ace isn't on the same level as Coutinho.
Liverpool haven't signed and lack a natural No. 10 since Coutinho joined Barcelona but the club did come close to …
Serene Champions League Progress Epitomises New-Look Reds
When drama unfolds on a Champions League night when Liverpool are playing, it has become the norm to expect it to revolve around what the Reds are up to.
Their penchant for producing unforgettable evenings in Europe's premier club competition has been on show for five decades, from Saint-Etienne to Istanbul, right the way through to the heartbreak of Kiev last season.
But on Wednesday night, the drama couldn't have been further from Liverpool's affairs, with the nerve-shredding entertainment being …
Liverpool vs Porto: Champions League Quarter Final Is No Formality
After emphatically dumping Nivo Kovac's Bayern Munich out of the Champions League this week, Liverpool were handed what on paper seems to be a preferable quarter-final after being drawn against Porto.
The 1-3 scoreline at the Allianz Arena along with a composed and assured performance in Bavaria has led many to believe that Liverpool are in with a serious chance of replicating last year's European form and making it all the way to the final for a second consecutive season …
Big Time Liverpool Continue To Defy The Doubters
Liverpool continued their resurgence towards the top of Europe’s elite with an incredible 3-1 win at the Allianz Arena over a Bayern Munich side that were never allowed to get going. And what for me, is potentially interesting about the victory is how low-key some of the celebration and conversation is at the moment – especially compared to say Manchester United vs PSG.
Obviously, Liverpool didn’t have to come back from two goals down, given how comprehensively they shut Bayern …
Virgil van Dijk was over the moon with how Liverpool executed their gameplan in Germany
Liverpool's colossal centre-back Virgil van Dijk believes The Reds played "fantastic" in their 3-1 win away to Bayern Munich last night.
After a 0-0 draw at Anfield three weeks ago, Bayern Munich were made the bookies' slight favourites to progress ahead of the return leg at the Allianz Arena. However, a professional performance from Liverpool, including a sublime display from Sadio Mané, saw Jurgen Klopp's side triumph with an unforgettable win at the home of the Bundesliga giants.
