Andoni Iraola Spends First Day with Liverpool Players Ahead of Pre-Season
Liverpool’s pre-season preparations begin in proper next week, and a fair few key stars will be reporting well after that due to their participation at this summer’s World Cup, but for some today was the first day back at the AXA Training Centre and a chance to meet new head coach Andoni Iraola for the […]
Mac Allister and Argentina Face Salah and Egypt in Round of 16 Clash
While new Liverpool signing Victor Muñoz’ presence with Spain means at least one Red is already confirmed through the the quarter-finals of the World Cup, even if the Spanish winger has yet to play a minute at the tournament for Spain—or put on a Liverpool shirt. Amongst Reds who headed to the tournament as Liverpool […]
New Signing Muñoz’s Spain Through to Quarter Finals
Liverpool’s new signing Víctor Muñoz watched from the sidelines on M0nday as his Spain side progressed past Portugal to reach the World Cup quarter finals.

Rumour Mongering: Arne Slot a Top Option for Netherlands Job
While you were busy watching FIFA undermine the sporting integrity of the World Cup, former Liverpool head coach Arne Slot was busy being shortlisted to become the next Netherlands national team manager. He might even be the favourite to take over following the sacking of Ronald Koeman. At least that’s the story from Sky German’s […]
Brazil Exit World Cup On Day of FIFA Corruption and Shame
Yesterday was really something then, wasn’t it? From a football point of view. We started with FIFA trying to kill football, engaging in the most risibly blatant corruption in recent memory and overturning a red card at the behest of the president of the host nation in order to give them a competitive edge. Had […]
Liverpool Women Sign Fullback Mari Ward
Liverpool Women have quietly been getting the work done this transfer season. After securing the signatures of Sara Agrez and Vivian Endemann earlier this summer, another new player has joined the Red Women, as the club announced on Thursday.

Jürgen Klopp “More than Recharged and Ready” to Take Germany Job
Julian Nagelsmann is officially out as manager of the German National Team and a wave of reports today have Jürgen Klopp having accepted the job after a few days of speculation that set out the former Liverpool boss as clear favourite to take over.

Tour de France 2026: TdF Riders as Premier League Clubs
One of the biggest sporting events of any summer is the Tour de France, a gruelling three week cycling race covering 3,300km and 54,000m of climbing around France that kicked off, or maybe it’s better to say rode off, in Barcelona on Saturday. Aside from questions as to why exactly a French bike race starts […]
Liverpool Reportedly Deny Virgil Van Dijk Exit Rumors
Sometimes there’s truth to potential transfers—some in-the-know agent or club tells a journalist about some behind the scenes activity—and other times it’s just some wanker calling themselves a journalist, blindly throwing darts at a board with player names and clubs. Yesterday, we reported on a rumor that seems to fall squarely in the latter category […]
World Cup Watch: Liverpool Transfer Target Advances to Quarterfinals
The World Cup: North American Edition continued apace on Saturday as the Round of 16 kicked off with two match-ups: Canada vs Morocco and Paraguay vs France.

Transfer Rumor Mongering: Liverpool Open To Virgil Van Dijk Offers
As this uniquely tumultuous summer transfer window continues, having already guaranteed the loss of Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté, the rumour of the day is that captain Virgil van Dijk may be next. The 34-year-old Dutchman has been the backbone of this Liverpool team since he arrived in January 2018. Apparently some at […]
Salah On Cheeky Pen: I Had To Do It
While I’m still boycotting the World Cup (and you should too), I can still be happy for Mohamed Salah, the Egyptian King. And I couldn’t be happier for Mo after he put in 120 minutes of grueling, high pressure football in the Round of 32, and capped it off with a perfectly taken chipped Panenka […]
Mohamed Salah’s Egypt Through to Round of 16
Mohamed Salah’s Egypt took it to extra time and penalties, but bested Australia with four penalties made after the Socceroos missed two from the spot. Salah, the Egyptian captain, took his side’s third penalty as a panenka, and had a cheeky smile on in the aftermath. This will be the second time Egypt have reached […]
England’s Daunting Azteca Altitude Challenge, Explained
England’s players will not collapse to the ground when they land in Mexico City on Friday, around 48 hours before their World Cup Round of 16 tie against Mexico at the Azteca kicks off. They will not require medical assistance or oxygen, or at least they shouldn’t. Mexico City isn’t high enough, not quite, for […]
Arne Slot Pays Tribute to Diogo Jota on Anniversary of His Passing
Former Liverpool FC head coach Arne Slot has paid tribute to Diogo Jota on the anniversary of his passing: “Moments like these remind you that football is never the most important thing. As a coach, you spend so much time thinking about training sessions, matches and results, but something like this immediately puts everything into […]
Jürgen Klopp Favoured to Take Germany Job with Nagelsmann Sack Imminent
Julian Nagelsmann isn’t officially out as Germany’s national team manager, at least not quite yet. The writing, though, is very much on the wall and every even half-way reliable outlet in Germany believes it is a question of when not if and that if will be very soon. To that end, Bild have been running […]

Liverpool Sporting Director Richard Hughes Expected to Join Al Hilal
Across two full seasons at Liverpool Football Club, Richard Hughes has taken a side gifted to him by Jürgen Klopp and the past era’s upper management that appeared primed for long-term success and was good enough to win the Premier League title in year one and turned it into a work in progress. The current […]
Rumour Mongering: Bajcetic to Boro Reports Wide Of The Mark
Earlier this week, reports in the press had Liverpool FC midfielder Stefan Bajcetic being linked to a move to EFL Championship clubs Middlesbrough, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City. At the very least, Middlesbrough will not be Stefan’s destination. Per This is Anfield, there is no interest from Middlesbrough regarding a permanent transfer or a loan […]
Andoni Iraola Liverpool Backroom Staff Set with Four Additions
While much of the attention in Andoni Iraola’s first month at Liverpool has focused on potential signings, with last season’s unbalanced squad and the departures of multiple club legends leaving plenty of work to do on the player recruitment front, there’s also been plenty of work going on behind the scenes to fill out the […]
Curtis Jones Reportedly Not Interested in Joining Nottingham Forest
With just a season left to run in Curtis Jones’ Liverpool deal and the player resisting efforts to tie him down to a new contract over the past two years, we headed into the summer transfer window with most expecting that the 25-year-old Scouse midfielder had played his final game in Red. However, with Jones […]

Per the BBC’s Senior Football Correspondent Sami Mokbel, Arsenal have registered their interest in Paris Saint-Germain’s 23-year-old winger Bradley Barcola. Liverpool FC have been rumoured to be interested in the French attacker, and those links have intensified after Yan Diomande indicated he would prefer to join PSG rather than Liverpool. On Arsenal’s front, Barcola is […]
Liverpool Target Barcola Progresses in World Cup at Isak’s Expense
After the links to Yan Diomande fell through with the player choosing PSG, the Reds might shift their energy back to the other attacker long-rumored as a transfer target: Bradley Barcola. Barcola’s French side easily dispensed with Aleksander Isak’s Sweden, with the Frenchman lodging the most touches in the Swedish box all game (6) and […]
Rumour Mongering: Liverpool Open to Stefan Bajcetic Sale
Youth development in football is rarely linear or entirely predictable, and any number of setbacks can derail or permanently alter the trajectory of a promising young star. Such is the case for Liverpool’s cultured defensive midfielder Stefan Bajcetic, who was seen as the future in midfield back in the 2022-23 season. Then, the 18-year-old was […]
