Rumour Mongering: Liverpool Could Challenge Arsenal for Ezri Konsa
Liverpool ended a disappointing 2025-26 season with a thin and unbalanced squad in need of plenty of work in the off-season, and that was before key veterans Mohamed Salah, Ibrahima Konaté, and Andy Robertson left on free transfers. So far, they’ve only signed promising young Spanish winger Victor Muñoz. As good a player as Muñoz […]
Summer Transfer Signing Victor Muñoz Selects Liverpool Squad Number
Most fans are growing increasingly concerned this summer by the state of the Liverpool squad constructed by sporting director Richard Hughes, with just a little more than two weeks to go before the 2026-27 campaign kicks off and last season’s already thin and unbalanced team having lost veterans Mohamed Salah, Ibrahima Konaté, and Andy Robertson.

Reporting says Liverpool want both Barcola and Mbaye, both victims […]
Nyoni Reflects on Liverpool Pre-Season Tour: “I Still Need to Keep Improving”
Arguably the main takeaway from Liverpool’s pre-season tour of the United States that wrapped up over the weekend was the way that it highlighted just how thin and unbalanced Liverpool’s squad has become under the guidance of sporting director Richard Hughes. Having ended last season in rather concerning shape, veteran stalwarts including Andy Robertson, Ibrahima […]
Rumour Mongering: Trabzonspor Agree Two-Year Mohamed Salah Deal
We’re into the first week of August and somewhat shockingly Mohamed Salah remains without a club after he and Liverpool agreed to a termination of his contract at the end of the 2025-26 season that would allow him to move on and give the legendary forward his pick up new clubs with the understanding he […]
Digging Deeper Into Liverpool’s 2026 Pre-Season Tour
With the coaching staff, players, and all the crew involved returning to Merseyside following the completion of their United States pre-season tour, I thought it would be nice to sit down and share a personal analysis of how it left me feeling about the players, training, and overall impression with an eye to the 26/27 […]

Though Joe Gomez was forced off during his first preseason appearance and will face some recovery time, head coach Andoni Iraola hopes he will be a short term absentee.

Rumour Mongering: Tottenham Really Want Cody Gakpo (For Real, Apparently)
The idea of Cody Gakpo being a top target for Tottenham Hotspur has been floated off and on over the summer, with a smattering of reports over the weekend from Spurs-connected journos escalating things and suggesting he just might be the big transfer bomba hinted at by manager Roberto De Zerbi last week. At the […]

[…]
Andoni Iraola Says Leeds Defeat “Probably the Most Useful Friendly”
Liverpool’s pre-season United States tour showed both promise and highlighted concerns, with new head coach Andoni Iraola starting to implement his more positive brand of football and a return of a high press and embrace of verticality to a side that had gone flat last season under Arne Slot.

Liverpool Prospect Trey Nyoni: Is This His Season?

Harvey Elliott Reflects on “Situation I Couldn’t Control” at Aston Villa
There is perhaps no Liverpool player for whom the arrival of Arne Slot as coach in 2024 was a bigger negative than Harvey Elliott. Under Jürgen Klopp previously, the undersized attacking midfielder had looked a lock in the club’s long-term plans. But under Slot, Elliott struggled. After a year together and despite being named Player […]
