Liverpool Change Kickoff Time for Final Set of Pre-Season Friendlies

Liverpool will wrap their 2026 pre-season under new head coach Andoni Iraola on Sunday, with most of the focus on the second friendly against Como set to be played at Anfield at 6PM and expected to contain most of the first team players in the mix for the following weekend’s Premier League opener against Newcastle. […]

Rumour Mongering: Al-Khelaifi Leaves Door Open for Barcola Departure

Paris Saint-Germain’s Bradley Barcola was an unused substitute as the reigning European Champions beat the Europa League holders Aston Villa 2-1 to win the UEFA Super Cup in back-to-back years. There has been much speculation over Barcola’s future, with Liverpool FC named as the leading suitor for his services. There remains a steep difference in […]

Jérémy Jacquet Returns to Full Team Training Ahead of Como Friendly

The recent signing of Ronald Araújo from Barcelona means Liverpool won’t have to rush him back into action after he missed the second half of last season with a shoulder injury, but news of Jérémy Jacquet returning to full team training today is nevertheless a major positive as the Reds prepare for the 2026-27 season. […]

Rumour Mongering: Galatasaray and Man City Interested in Mac Allister

While the signing of Ronald Araújo on loan takes a lot of the pressure off Liverpool’s need to make defensive signings in what’s left of the summer transfer window, a high calibre winger to replace the departed Mohamed Salah remains a priority and midfielder Curtis Jones looks to have one foot out the door to […]

Rumour Mongering: Inter Inch Closer to Curtis Jones Move

Inter Milan appear to be making some progress towards a move for Curtis Jones. According to Fabrizio Romano, Lazio have approached Inter for midfielder Davide Frattesi, which could clear room for Liverpool FC’s Jones to make his way over to Milan.

Alexander Isak Looking Forward to the Premier League Season

Alexander Isak’s performance was one of the highlights of the ultimately disappointing Anfield friendly at the weekend, and the Swedish striker spoke to Liverpoolfc.com about his anticipation for the season. It’s unavoidable to note that though the World Cup was a minor interruption for Isak’s pre-season this summer, Sweden’s underperformance likely assured a much more […]

Lewis Koumas on Liverpool Pre-Season: “This Is the Best I’ve Felt”

With Liverpool’s pre-season winding down and the 2026-27 season drawing near, chances for Liverpool’s youth and fringe players to impress new head coach Andoni Iraola have nearly past and for many there have been three players on that front who have stood out more than any others. In midfield, Trey Nyoni has made a case […]

Rumour Mongering: Liverpool’s Ndukwe Not Expected to Return to Austria

Eighteen-year-old Austrian centre half Ifeanyi Ndukwe has been the surprise standout of pre-season for the Reds ahead of the 2026-27 season, but work permit issues mean he will not be able to play in England and will need a loan home that gets him first team minutes in a top league to earn one moving […]

In Liverpool’s Defense: The Rise of Ifeanyi Ndukwe

When this writer was considering what his Tuesday article could be I almost delved into new head coach Andoni Iraola’s comments following Sunday’s loss to AS Monaco.

Rumour Mongering: Liverpool Prepared to Turn to Barcola Alternatives

Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola has two years left on his contract and has signalled he does not intend to sign a new deal and would like to move on from the French club this summer. Meanwhile, PSG have made multiple attacking signings that seem intended to serve to replace his minutes in the squad. […]

Liverpool Starlet Abe On the Mark in U-21 Draw

Liverpool look to open the Andoni Iraola Era at Anfield in a few hours with a pre-season friendly against AS Monaco and most Reds fans are likely a mix of shades of eager and anxious. Eager because each day we get closer to the season means we get to revel – and commiserate – in […]

As Stars Return Which Fringe Liverpool Players Will Still Get Minutes?

On the American preseason tour we got a chance to watch a few of the youth and some fringe players, all of which had their personal goals to achieve and for the likes of Harvey Elliott and Federico Chiesa it’s very much about whether their efforts will get them into new head coach Andoni Iraola’s […]

Liverpool Boss Andoni Iraola “Really Excited” for First Match at Anfield

Rumour Mongering: PSG will Reject Liverpool Opening €115M Barcola Bid

After spending half a billion on flashy new signings last summer, Liverpool somehow ended up with a thinner and more unbalanced squad than they started with. Now, after losing key veterans Mohamed Salah, Ibrahima Konaté, and Andy Robertson, if the 2026-27 season kicked off today they would be even weaker still. For sporting director Richard […]

Danns to Step Up Rehab Ahead of Possible Loan Move

According to reporting from Ian Doyle of the Liverpool ECHO, Liverpool FC are looking for a potential loan move for striker Jayden Danns.

Rumour Mongering: Liverpool Don’t Want to Sign Djed Spence, Actually

It’s always dangerous to read too much into a good World Cup. Still, if you’re a Liverpool side thin on homegrown talent with major question marks at right back and you have a chance to sign a 25-year-old England international who can also cover left back (where you also have some less major question marks) […]

Today, Liverpool and Premier League legend Mohamed Salah is officially a Trabzonspor player, joining last season’s third-place Turkish Super Lig side ahead of a season that will see them playing in the Europa League while trying to close the gap on Galatasaray and Fenerbahce domestically. This wasn’t perhaps the plan. Wasn’t the expected outcome. After […]

Rumour Mongering: Spence Linked to Reds

Liverpool FC have been linked to Tottenham Hotspurs’ full-back Djed Spence. Per the Twitter/X aggregator account Anfield Sector, who seem to have sources now, the versatile full-back is receptive to the idea of a move to Liverpool. Which seems like an understatement after back to back seasons of finishing 17th. The player is primarily a […]
