Why Liverpool are right to sell Dejan Lovren
After five years of being one of the most divisive players in Liverpool's history, the end appears to be nigh for Dejan Lovren at Anfield.
If (trustworthy) rumours are to be believed, the 30-year-old is on the verge of completing a move to Roma, having accepted that being fourth choice centre-back is going to be no barrel of laughs.
The first thing to say is that Lovren deserves credit for actually wanting to go out and prove himself elsewhere, rather …
Lovren Exit Could Pave The Way For Prospects
Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren has continuously been linked with a move to Italy this summer.
The Croatian centre half, 30, was a rumoured target for A.C. Milan, with the Rossoneri apparently eager to lend a central defender this summer.
Now, however, it appears the San Siro side have competition for the former Southampton and Lyon man's signature from their Serie A rival's, AS Roma.
According to a report in La Gazzetta Dello Sport, Roma have turned their attentions towards Lovren …
Liverpool's wonderkid approach will lead to success
It seems to the case every single year now but this summer transfer window had the potential to be the biggest in the clubs history. With Liverpool just needing to make subtle tweaks to a squad that amassed 97 points and a sixth European Cup, it was, on paper at least, a much easier task than in years gone by.
The Reds didn’t need a £60million-rated goalkeeper being courted by many of Europe’s elite. They didn’t need to part with …
Werner vs Pepe - who is the better fit for Liverpool?
Not long ago now, Timo Werner was the man the entire Liverpool fanbase wanted the Reds to sign. However, with interest from Bayern Munich well publicised and RB Leipzig seemingly not keen on selling the German international on the cheap despite his contract situation, interest in him waned and a new player replaced him as desirable number one.
Reports in France claimed Jurgen Klopp and the recruitment team at Anfield liked Lille’s Nicolas Pepe. His 22 goal in Ligue 1 …
Nice transfer rumour, be a shame if something happened to it
You remember that one summer where you had big plans of being invited to backyard keggers every night, finally getting guts to ask out that girl from the ice-cream stand, and instead you basically ended up having to work every day bagging groceries and spent your remaining free time playing Xbox in your basement until you realized it was September? OK, so this is turning into my own personal therapy session rather than an informative transfer post, but the point …
Origi Stay Signals Liverpool's Transfer Intent
Divock Origi will be staying at Anfield for at least one more year. Whilst it remains unclear whether the Belgian will sign a new deal with the Reds, although Liverpool are certainly hoping that he will, what is clear is that no offers for Origi will be entertained in this window, even if that means losing the player on a free next summer.
There are a number of interesting aspects to this story. The first thing to note is that …
One Signing To Solve Liverpool's Summer Puzzle
We’ve won it six times... Now that the formalities are out of the way, let’s talk about transfers. Various reports state that Liverpool have the ability to spend, but aren’t inclined to disrupt a squad that blew away their Premier League points record while bringing the Champions League title back to Anfield. The resulting riddle is, how can Liverpool make a relatively conservative tweak, one move that would have a tangible impact on the 2019/20 season? A Swiss-Army-Knife, do everything, …
How ambitious do Liverpool need to be this summer?
Most Liverpool fans are still in the process of readjusting to normality after the glorious events of Madrid, but formal preparations for next season will soon be underway.
The first members of the squad will reconvene for pre-season training in only two and a half weeks' time and yet, all is quiet on the transfer front.
As ever, there have been murmurs from sources across the continent, but we've yet to really be presented with concrete information on a target …
Why claims Liverpool don't need players like de Ligt are wrong
There's been an unrivalled amount of chatter surrounding the future of Ajax's Matthijs de Ligt in recent weeks, with plenty of rumours linking him with a move to Anfield.
However, reports in the past 48 hours seem to point toward the Dutch wonder kid joining PSG.
There's also talk of Liverpool making moves for Lille's Nicolas Pepe and Sporting Lisbon's Bruno Fernandes.
While it's difficult to quantify anything at this stage of 'silly season', one thing that we do know …
Positive Thoughts & Taiwo Awoniyi | Reflecting on Liverpool’s Transfer Nous
In the midst of trying to wrap up an abysmal Bundesliga campaign, reports from German sports outlet Spox indicate that Schalke 04 have lodged preliminary interest with Liverpool in bringing youth forward Taiwo Awoniyi into their ranks over the summer.
But this article, while dancing around the topic, concerns something broader than that simple fact.
Moving on
