Castillo could be an asset

They have brought in talented players in recent windows, and it is clear that they are looking to build a formidable team for the future. They need more quality in the middle of the park, and the 17-year-old could develop into an important first-team player for them with the right guidance. He could add control, composure and defensive cover to the side.

Playing in England could accelerate his development and help him fulfil his tremendous potential as well.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot is under a lot of pressure after a disappointing run this season.

He was backed with substantial funds during the summer window, and Liverpool were expected to defend their domestic crown. However, it has been a disappointing season for Liverpool so far. There have been rumours that the Netherlands manager could be shown the door soon.

Steven Gerrard to manage Liverpool?

They have been linked with multiple managers in recent weeks, including former club captain Steven Gerrard. According to Football Insider, the 45-year-old is “very keen” on taking over at Liverpool.

It will be interesting to see if the club is willing to make a change in the coming weeks. Gerrard has managed clubs like Aston Villa and Rangers in the past. However, he is still largely unproven, and it would be a huge gamble to appoint him as a successor to Slot.

The Dutch manager helped them with the league title last, and Liverpool might need to be more patient with him. They have shown improvement in the last couple of matches against Inter Milan and Brighton. They managed to win both matches without conceding a goal. It remains to be seen whether the Netherlands manager can turn it around.

Gerrard might not be the ideal option

There is no doubt that the appointment of Gerrard could lift the spirits around the club and bring back the feel-good factor. However, Liverpool need a proven manager, and the former England International midfielder might not be ideal for them. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.

Liverpool will have to be practical when making the decision instead of being emotional. They have a talented squad, and a top-quality manager could take them back to the top of English football. If they decide to get rid of Slot, they should look to bring in someone who has won major trophies at big clubs.

Manchester United are keeping tabs on the Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jobe Bellingham.

The 20-year-old has not been able to perform at a high-level, and he has been linked with a move away from Germany.

Man United eyeing Jobe Bellingham

Manchester United are monitoring his situation as per Fichajes, and they could look to provide him with an exit route. The 20-year-old was highly rated during his time at Sunderland, and there is no doubt that he is a promising young player with a bright future. Niko Kovac has labelled him as a player with “a lot of quality”.

Perhaps a change of scenery could be ideal for him. Manchester United need more quality in the middle of the park, and the powerful 20-year-old could be ideal for them. He has the physicality to succeed in English football, and he has the technical attributes as well. A fresh start could be ideal for him.

There is no doubt that he has the talent, and Manchester United might be able to unlock his true potential. They have done well to groom young players in recent years.

The Red Devils could play a role in his development. The midfielder could be attracted to the idea of returning to England as well. Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to play for them will be quite exciting for him.

The 20-year-old would be a future investment for Manchester United. If they can sign him for a reasonable amount of money, it could be a masterstroke for them. He has all the tools to develop into a top player with the right guidance.

It will be interesting to see if the German club is willing to give up on him and sell the player.

Pablo Barrios has been linked with a move away from Atletico Madrid, and Tottenham are keen on securing his signature.

According to Fichajes, they have offered €70 million for the 22-year-old midfielder, but he has a €120 million exit clause in his contract. It is highly unlikely that any club would agree to pay that kind of money for the young midfielder.

Atletico Madrid will have to be reasonable with their demand for the move to go through. Liverpool are also monitoring Barrios, and recent reports have claimed that they could face competition from Chelsea.

Spurs need someone like Pablo Barrios

Tottenham need more control, composure and defensive cover in the middle of the park. The Atletico Madrid could midfielder could prove to be the ideal acquisition for them. He is young enough to improve further, and he is already well settled at the highest level. He has the technical attributes in the Premier League, and he could be an important player for him. They need someone who can control the tempo of the game from the deep, and the 22-year-old seems like the ideal acquisition.

It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Tottenham need to keep improving the team if they want to compete with elite clubs. They will be hoping to finish in the top four and do well in the cup competitions. Adding more quality in the middle of the park will certainly help them finish the season strongly.

Can Spurs sign Barrios?

It remains to be seen whether they can convince the midfielder to join the club. He is enjoying his football at Atletico Madrid, and he is an important player for them. Moving to Tottenham might not be a priority for him right now. The outfit will have to convince the player of their project and offer him a lucrative contract to tempt him.

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing the AC Milan attacker Rafael Leao.

The 26-year-old has done quite well for the Italian club, and his performances have attracted the attention of the north London club.

Leao has been linked with Liverpool as well.

Rafael Leao on Arsenal radar

Mikel Arteta believes that he needs to sign a quality winger in order to get the best out of Viktor Gyokeres.

He feels that Milan attacker will be able to unlock the true potential of the Swedish international. Gyokeres needs more service, and a quality wide player could certainly make a difference in the final third.

Leao will add pace, flair and unpredictability in the final third. He will help create opportunities for his teammates, and it remains to be seen whether Arsenal follow up on their interest with an official proposal to get the deal done.

According to Fichajes, they are looking at Rodrygo Goes from Real Madrid as well. It will be interesting to see which of the two players ends up at Arsenal eventually. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to join them will be attractive for both players.

Leao could use a move

Meanwhile, the Portuguese international has proven himself at Milan and for his country. This could be the right time for him to take on a new challenge. The move to the Premier League could be ideal for him. He has the physicality for English football, and he could be an important player for Arsenal.

The Gunners have the financial resources to convince Milan to sell the player, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. He is highly rated across Europe, and Luka Modrić has recently labelled him as an “amazing” player. He has the ability to improve further, and moving to the Premier League could accelerate his development.

Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.

The 23-year-old has struggled for regular opportunities at the Premier League club, and he needs to play more often. Gianluigi Donnarumma is currently the first-choice goalkeeper at the club, and Trafford will need to leave if he wants to play every week.

James Trafford is in demand

According to reports, Tottenham, Newcastle and Aston Villa might be able to provide him with an exit route in the coming months.

It will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Keith Wyness told Football Insider: “He’s a quality keeper and I think there are a few clubs that are still unhappy in that position. But certainly those are the sort of the three clubs I think, yeah, Newcastle, Villa, Spurs are where I think Trafford may end up.”

Trafford could improve all three clubs

Spurs could certainly use more depth in the goalkeeping department. Guglielmo Vicario has done well since joining the London club, but he can be quite inconsistent. He is also quite vulnerable when it comes to dealing with aerial balls. Signing another quality goalkeeper would be ideal for Tottenham.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa need a replacement for Emiliano Martinez, who has been linked with an exit from the club. There is no doubt that Trafford would be an excellent acquisition for them. He was outstanding for Burnley in the Championship last season, and he has the quality to succeed in the Premier League as well.

Newcastle could also use another goalkeeper, and Trafford could be the ideal long-term replacement for Nick Pope. It will be interesting to see which of the three clubs can get the deal done.

The post “Quality” player from Manchester City could “end up” at Tottenham soon appeared first on CaughtOffside.

Manchester United’s highly-rated young midfielder, Kobbie Mainoo, has become a key player in the rumour mill due to a lack of consistent game time at Old Trafford.

Major European clubs, including Chelsea, are closely monitoring his situation.

Mainoo is reportedly eager for a move to secure more game time to bolster his chances of making the England squad for the 2026 World Cup. He is actively seeking a fresh challenge to accelerate his development.

Kobbie Mainoo prefers Napoli

Although at least 12 clubs are reportedly in the race, sources close to the situation have informed CaughtOffside that Chelsea and Bayern Munich are “leading the chase”. However, the player’s personal preference list still places Napoli as the frontrunner. Mainoo is prioritising where he can be a guaranteed starter as he plots his next move.

Scott McTominay has done quite well at Napoli, leaving Manchester United, and the 20-year-old midfielder is looking to follow in his footsteps. Napoli will be able to provide him with regular opportunities, and he will be able to work with a world-class manager like Antonio Conte at the Italian club.

Mainoo is a promising player with a bright future, and he could develop into a key player for Napoli with the right guidance. It will be interesting to see if the Italian club can get the deal done.

Chelsea could use Mainoo

Meanwhile, Chelsea are among the clubs leading the race to sign the player. They need more control in the middle of the park. The Manchester United player is well settled in English football, and he could make an immediate impact. He could complement the likes of Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo. The youngster has the quality to complete their midfield for the foreseeable future.

It will be interesting to see if they can convince Manchester United to sell. They are looking to build a formidable team for the future, and the England International midfielder could be the final piece of the puzzle for them.

The post Sources: Chelsea “leading the chase” as 12 clubs enter race to sign Premier League prodigy appeared first on CaughtOffside.

Igor Thiago has become one of the standout names of the winter transfer window. His strong performances for Brentford have put him firmly on the radar of Premier League giants.

Sources close to the player’s situation have informed CaughtOffside that Tottenham, Newcastle and Aston Villa are all showing “serious interest”, while clubs from Serie A and La Liga are also keeping an eye on the Brazilian striker.

Thiago has 12 goals in 16 matches this season.

Brentford set Igor Thiago asking price

Brentford’s stance is clear, and the club has set a price as high as €70 million, with some reports even mentioning £70 million. That figure makes a January move difficult, especially given Thiago’s contract until 2029. Brentford are reluctant to lose such a key player midway through the season.

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery sees Thiago as a long-term alternative to Ollie Watkins and could push for a bid in the €50–57 million range. Tottenham have explored a loan deal, but Brentford are not open to it. Newcastle, who signed Yoane Wissa from Brentford in the summer but have yet to see him play due to injury, view Thiago as the ideal signing to strengthen their attack.

Given Brentford’s position, a big move in January looks unlikely. However, strong offers are expected to arrive in the summer. For Thiago, the priority remains playing regularly and performing well to secure his place in Brazil’s squad for the upcoming World Cup.

He will look to compete at a high-level and join a big club. The move to Tottenham would probably be more attractive for him compared to the other two clubs. Tottenham have an exciting project, and they recently won the UEFA Europa League. A quality striker could make a huge difference for them in the final third, and the move would be ideal for all parties.

It will be interesting to see if they are willing to pay the asking price in the summer.

Chelsea defender Axel Disasi has been linked with a move away from the club in January.

The 27-year-old has struggled for regular opportunities at the London club, and he needs to move on in search of regular playing time.

Axel Disasi offered to Real Madrid

According to a report from Defensa Central, he does not have a future at Chelsea, and his agent has now approached Real Madrid to offer his client. It will be interesting to see if the Spanish outfit is willing to take up the opportunity and sign him on loan until the end of the season.

The former Monaco defender has shown his quality in Ligue 1 in the past, but the move to England has not worked out for him. It will be interesting to see if he is allowed to showcase his qualities in Spain.

Real Madrid need more quality and depth in the defensive unit, and the €45 million Chelsea ace could prove to be a useful acquisition on loan. It would be a no-risk acquisition, and Real Madrid could sign him for cheap if he manages to impress.

It will be interesting to see if they decide to go through the remainder of the season with the current options at their disposal.

Tottenham are prepared to beat their rivals in the race for the African attacker by smashing the wage structure for him. They are prepared to pay a substantial amount of money to the player in order to convince him to join. It will be interesting to see what the 25-year-old decides.

He has been one of the best attacking players in the league this season. He will cost £65 million, and Tottenham will have to pay up if they want to get the deal done. They need more quality and cutting-edge in the final third, and the 25-year-old is versatile enough to operate anywhere across the front three. Semenyo has been labelled as “world-class”.

He is well settled in the Premier League, and he could make an immediate impact at Liverpool or Tottenham. Both clubs could be exciting opportunities for the player.

It is no surprise that they are keen on the French defender. They need more quality and depth in the defensive unit. They have had multiple injury problems at the back this season, and players like Axel Disasi and Benoit Badiashile have no future at the club.

Upamecano has proven himself in German football, and he has the quality to succeed in the Premier League as well. Signing a player of his quality on a free transfer would be a masterstroke. It will be interesting to see if Chelsea can beat Manchester City to his signature. The French defender is at the peak of his powers, and he could make an immediate impact in the Premier League.

Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.

The Brazilian recently returned to action after a lengthy injury layoff. According to a report from Fichajes, several clubs have made enquiries for the player, and there is no shortage of interest in him.

Arsenal not keen on selling Gabriel Jesus

However, Arsenal view him as an important player, and they are unwilling to sanction his departure. The former Manchester City striker is versatile enough to operate in multiple attacking roles, and Mikel Arteta believes that he could be an important player for Arsenal during the second half of the campaign.

Arsenal are pushing for the league title, and they will look to do well in the UEFA Champions League as well. They need more quality and cutting-edge in the final third.

Jesus could prove to be very useful for them. Arsenal signed Viktor Gyokeres during the summer transfer window, but the Swedish International has not been at his best this season. It is clear that he needs more support in the attack. Holding onto the Brazilian attacker, at least until the end of the season, would be a wise decision.

Spurs linked with Mason Greenwood

Tottenham have been linked with Greenwood in recent months, and there is no doubt that they need more quality in the attack. The former Manchester United striker could have been a very useful acquisition for them. The Red Devils stand to benefit financially from any potential move.

The 24-year-old can operate on the flanks as well as centrally. He has registered 17 goal contributions in 20 matches across all competitions this season for Marseille. He is entering the years of his career, and he could improve most teams in the country.

Chelsea will be hoping to fight for major trophies in the coming seasons, and they need elite players who can bridge the gap with the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City. Maignan would be a transformative signing for them.

He could be available for a nominal price in January, but it seems that a summer move is more likely.

Leeds United and Nottingham Forest are keeping tabs on him from the Premier League. The player is reportedly available for a reasonable amount of money next month.

Konate and Szoboszlai would be quality signings

Konate has done exceedingly well for Liverpool since joining the club, and he is undoubtedly one of the best defenders in the Premier League. Real Madrid have looked vulnerable at the back, and he could be the ideal acquisition for them. He will be free in the summer of 2026, and he could be a cost-effective solution to their defensive problems.

On the other hand, the Hungarian midfielder has been the best player at Liverpool this season. Klopp signed him during his time at Liverpool, and it is no surprise that he wants to take the player with him to Real Madrid. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Liverpool will not want to lose two players, especially to their former manager.

 Liverpool have been heavily linked with a move for the Bayern Munich attacker Michael Olise. 

The 23-year-old French international has been in spectacular form since joining the German club. He helped them win the league title last season, and he is fine for this season as well. The player has already registered 23 goal contributions in 23 matches across all competitions.

He has all the attributes to develop into a world-class player, and Liverpool are looking at him as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah.

Olise is a key player for the German club, and they will not want to lose him easily. According to a report from Fichajes, any offer close to €150 million could force the German club to discuss a potential transfer. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool are prepared to pay that kind of money. They will face competition from PSG as well.

Michael Olise would be a superb signing

The French international has all the makings of a future superstar, and Liverpool would do well to secure a signature. Salah has been an exceptional servant for them, and he has helped them win every trophy at the club level. Replacing him will not be easy. Liverpool need a superstar to fill the void left by him, and the former Crystal Palace star could be ideal.

Olise to replace Salah?

Salah has not been at his best this season, and he has been linked with an exit. He is struggling to hold down a regular starting spot at Liverpool. It remains to be seen whether the Premier League side decides to cash in on him in the coming windows.

The opportunity to return to the Premier League could be an exciting one for the player as well. Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they could help him fulfil his ambitions. He knows English football well, and he might be able to settle in quickly and make an immediate impact.

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Juventus attacker Kenan Yildiz.

According to a report from TEAMtalk, the 20-year-old Turkish International is a dream name on their shortlist as they look to add more quality in the final third. It is no secret that they need more unpredictability on the flanks, and the Juventus attacker could be ideal for them.

He will help create opportunities for his teammates and find the back of the net as well. Brennan Johnson and Xavi Simons have not been at their best this season, and Dejan Kulusevski is sidelined with an injury.

Kenan Yildiz vs Tottenham wingers this season

Mohammed Kudus is the only reliable winger at the club. Spurs need to invest in that area of the squad, and Yildiz would be a shrewd investment. He has all the tools to develop into a superstar.

Former England manager Fabio Capello believes that the Turkish attacker has the “talent and humility of a champion”.

He has all the tools to develop into a complete midfielder. He will not only help Manchester United or Chelsea control the game from the middle of the park, but he will also help out defensively.

He needs to choose his next destination carefully. He should look to join a club where he will play regularly. Sitting on the bench at a big club will not benefit him. Any club hoping to sign the player might have to come forward with game time assurances first.

Chelsea attacker Raheem Sterling has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.

He is unwanted at the London club, and he’s unlikely to get regular opportunities.

Naturally, he has been linked with other clubs. Leeds United are one of the clubs linked with the player, and they will face competition from Crystal Palace.

Chelsea ready to let Raheem Sterling leave

Meanwhile, manager Enzo Maresca has now opened the door for his exit in January and he has claimed that the player could move on.

“In terms of Raheem, once again it’s the same thing I said about Axel [Disasi], they are Chelsea players. Now also we are in December, January is coming, so anything can happen with him,” Maresca said (h/t Leeds United News).

It remains to be seen whether Leeds are prepared to sign the player. They need more quality and depth in the attacking unit and Sterling could be an interesting acquisition for them.

He has proven himself in the Premier League with Liverpool and Manchester City in the past. There is no doubt that he is a quality player and he has won major trophies in his career.

The opportunity to join Leeds United could be interesting for the player as well. He will not want to sit on the bench regularly at this stage of his career. Regular football during the second half of the season could improve his chances of representing his country in the upcoming World Cup.
Leeds could provide him with the platform he needs right now.

It will be interesting to see if Leeds come forward with an acceptable offer for Sterling. Chelsea are unlikely to hold out for a premium for him.

If Leeds United can sign him for a reasonable amount of money, the deal could be worth doing. Sterling is versatile enough to operate in multiple roles and he will add goals and creativity to the side.

Even though the Chelsea attacker is out of form and lacking in confidence, he is a quality performer and regular football might bring out the best in him.

Former Swiss International midfielder Gokhan Inler has now revealed that he had the opportunity to join Arsenal during his time at Udinese. 

However, the Italian outfit refused to sell him back then. The player eventually ended up in the Premier League with Leicester City, and he won the league title with them during the 2015-16 season.

Arsene Wenger wanted to bring the Swiss International midfielder to Arsenal during his time at the club. He was a quality player for Udinese and Napoli. There is no doubt that he had the attributes to do well in the Premier League as well. He could have been a useful option for them.

Gokhan Inler on failed Arsenal move

Inler revealed on The Italian Football Podcast: “Of course, during this time, I had an agent. I didn’t have so much information as I was concentrating on the pitch. Yes, the rumours were there. Behind the scenes, now I understand what happens behind the scenes, but before, you don’t know what’s going on.

“But yeah, it could be, I read about this. But I can say, and many people don’t know about this, but in my first year at Udine, I had an offer from Arsenal. However, the club said no, Inler is part of our project, so I stayed there four years.

“Yes, Arsene Wenger wanted me correct. Like I said, I didn’t know what was going around but I was also a Swiss national team player with Johan Djourou and Philippe Senderos were Arsenal players. That’s why I saw the coach with the national team, but in the end the club decided to keep me and I had a great four years with Udinese.”

Inler barely made any impact

Inler barely made any impact in English football with the Foxes when he did end up in the Premier League. He made just 10 appearances across all competitions for them, but he did win the league title.

Meanwhile, the player is now the sporting director at his former club Udinese.

The post “I had an offer from Arsenal”: Premier League winner reveals how Gunners tried to sign him appeared first on CaughtOffside.

Liverpool have been linked with the move for Michael Olise in recent months.

The 23-year-old is one of the finest young attacking talents in Europe and football right now, and Liverpool are reportedly keeping tabs on him.

However, Christian Falk has now revealed on CFBayernInsider that there is no chance of the French attacker leaving the German club anytime soon. Bayern Munich are now looking to agree on a new contract with the player, which will see him rewarded with an improved deal.

Bayern unwilling to let Michael Olise move

There have been rumours of the German club making a move for Mohamed Salah, which would facilitate Olise’s move to Liverpool. However, Falk claims that Bayern Munich are not interested in the Egyptian International, and he is too old for them now.

It seems unlikely that Liverpool will be able to sign the former Crystal Palace star. He has been linked as a potential long-term replacement for Salah, and the development will come as a major blow for the Premier League champions. It will be interesting to see if they can sign a quality right-sided attacker to replace the Egyptian.

Salah has not been at his best this season, and he has been dropped from the starting lineup. There are strong rumours that he could move on in the coming months. Liverpool need to find a quality alternative.

Liverpool continue to push for Yan Diomande, and they are now accelerating their efforts to sign the 19-year-old as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah.

According to a report from Fichajes, they are prepared to invest a record amount of money in order to sign the attacker.

Yan Diomande is a top prospect

Diomande has been an important player for the German club, and there is no doubt that he is a tremendous talent. He could develop into a quality player with the right guidance, and moving to Liverpool could be ideal for him. The German club reportedly values the player at €100 million.

Arsenal and Manchester City are interested in securing his services as well. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can beat the competition for his signature.

The player recently dropped a bombshell interview, claiming that his relationship with the manager has broken down and he could be on his way out of the club soon. Liverpool are now looking at a potential replacement, and Diomande has been chosen as a long-term solution.

On the other hand, Arsenal and Manchester City are looking to add more explosiveness in the final third, and they are keeping tabs on the 19-year-old. It will be interesting to see which of the three clubs can get the deal done. His asking price is quite high, and the German outfit is unlikely to lower their demands for him.

Meanwhile, the Turkish international needs to play regularly as well. Sitting on the bench at the Spanish club will not benefit him.

“He is another example of what I think is the best thing about Crystal Palace, he works hard for the team, plays his role and there’s no ego or arrogance about him.

“From what I’m told, the management and coaching staff rate him very highly, and that’s always a positive when they have that sort of relationship.

“Palace are determined to recognise what he’s brought to the team, and to keep hold of him because of how impressive he has been.”

They have done well to sign the German attacker Nick Woltemade recently. However, they need more creativity on the side.

Leeds told they need someone like Scott McTominay

Leeds United legend Gordon Strachan has now claimed that they need better players in order to stay up. He believes that someone like Scott McTominay could make a defining impact at Leeds United.

Strachan believes that Leeds need someone who can carry them in the top flight and guide them to safety.

The Scottish International has been outstanding for Napoli, and he helped them win the league title last season. He was nominated for the Ballon d’Or as well.

Strachan said via LeedsPress: “I think they will have to get by on common sense and effort, and hope that is enough, because there are not enough star players there. They’re a bit like Scotland. They need to make the most of what they have, and they have to earn their wins as a team; every move has to be earned. Unless they get a Scott McTominay, they will struggle in the best league in the world.”

Leeds are close to the relegation zone, and they will be desperate for survival. A club of their stature should be competing in the Premier League. They spent a lot of money during the summer transfer window, and Daniel Farke is under a lot of pressure to guide them to safety.

Now the player is struggling to hold down a starting spot once again. It will be interesting to see if he can establish himself as a key player for the Foxes during the second half of the season.

Harry Winks could be useful

There is no doubt that they need more control and composure in the middle of the park. The former Tottenham midfielder could be very useful for them. However, he will need to convince the manager that he deserves more opportunities in the coming weeks.

Meanwhile, Adrian Clarke believes that they certainly something going on behind the scenes at the club, and that is why Winks has struggled for regular opportunities.

“Harry Winks, there is an issue with Harry Winks, I don’t know what it is, but he had a poor game last week and got hooked at half time”, Clarke said via InsideFutbol.

“There is talk of stuff at the training ground and whatnot, hbut e was left out of the squad altogether.

“There is clearly something going on behind the scenes and it wouldn’t surprise me if he moved on in January if they could find a buyer.”

It will be interesting to see which of the three clubs decides to submit an official proposal in the coming weeks. £52 million might seem expensive for the young defender right now, but he is still only 22 with plenty of room for development. He could easily justify the investment in future.

The opportunity to join Manchester United will be exciting for him. It would be a step up in his career, and he would get to test himself in the Premier League.

It will be interesting to see if Liverpool can agree on a deal to sign the player in the coming weeks. There have been rumours that Liverpool could look to pay a nominal fee and sign the player in January instead of waiting until the summer to sign him for free.

Liverpool picked up a 1-0 win over Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League earlier tonight.

The Reds were under immense pressure heading into the game, and Arne Slot will be delighted with a much-needed victory on their travels. The win over Inter Milan will certainly give Liverpool a confidence boost for the upcoming matches.

Liverpool are going through a rough patch right now, and they needed a win to lift the spirits around the club. Apart from their disappointing form, Mohamed Salah’s latest bombshell interview has put the team and the manager under a lot of unnecessary pressure.

The Egyptian has been dropped in recent matches, and he revealed to the media after the draw against Leeds United at the weekend that his relationship with the manager has broken down, and he is being forced out of the club. There have been strong rumours since then that Egyptian could be sold in January. Despite all the noise, Liverpool managed to put on a professional performance against the Italian outfit, and they will be delighted with the result.

Ryan Gravenberch did well

There were a number of impressive performances on the pitch for Liverpool, and Ryan Gravenberch was chosen as the man of the match. However, former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock believes that Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai were far more deserving candidates.
