๐๏ธ | @_pauljoyce: Iraola must select a vice-captain after the departure of Andrew Robertson on a free transfer and, in truth, not many candidates leap out. There are certainly not many in this Liverpool squad who set benchmarks every day.
Good signing if it happens. Makes a lot of sense, Van Dijk will be 36 by the time the season ends and there will be a need for a fair bit of rotation at CB with Leoni and Jacquet being so young.
๐จ EXCL: A proposal has been made to Liverpool with an opportunity to sign Ilya Zabarnyi from PSG. It remains to be seen if Liverpool will act on the opportunity.

@PolitlcsUK Bet Farage will take credit for this, even though itโll actually be because of due process and the fact that investigations (unfortunately) take time.
Iโve seen so much dross like this recently. Szoboszlai was our best player last season and probably the best player at the club now. And fans want to shoehorn him anywhere (Iโve seen him mention at RW and LW). Heโs a number 8, play him as a number 8. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Szoboszlai.
Your Semenyo profile.
Pressing monster with unlimited engine while having a flying fullback over/undertaking holding width. Chips in with some GA and from set pieces.
Allows you to take away some front line OOP work from Isak, put Barcola LW to stretch teams vertically and Wirtz feeding them both.
Sorted #LFC
Thiago hopefully ๐ค๐ผ would also love Millie to join but feel he would be better in the academy for now. If he even wants to stay in football that is. Heโd be incredible as a pundit as well I feel.
Wirtz and Isak will both absolutely thrive under Iraola which I think is part of the reason he is so high up on Hughes/Edwards list.
As a side note my iPhone autocorrected Wirtz and Isak to Witty and Islam at first.
Liverpool insiders felt several academy prospects had become frustrated under Slot. One source claims the handling of Tyler Morton played a part in the club accepting a significantly reduced fee, while Trey Nyoni was also considering his future.
Torn. Itโs clearly the correct decision but the title last year is up there with the best days of my life. And the hand he had been dealt this year was shocking. Nothing but gratitude from me.
Liverpool FC can confirm Arne Slot is to depart his role as head coach with immediate effect and that the process to appoint a successor is under way.
He leaves with a Premier League title to his name and our deepest gratitude and appreciation.
This could work in our favour. Both Leon and Jacquet will be getting far more playing time than they would usually. And they are the future. Still fuming about missing out on yet another ยฃ60 odd million though.
Exclusive: Ibrahima Konate is expected to leave Liverpool. No agreement has been reached between #LFC and the French defender despite Konate indicating in April a deal was close.
