BREAKING: Craig Bellamy's proposed move to Burnley has fallen through, Sky Sports News understands.
It is understood that the Championship club have turned their attention to other managerial targets, including Steve Cooper and Rob Edwards 🚨
🚨 EXCL: Leeds United reach agreement to sign Harry Wilson as free agent. 29yo winger targeted by many clubs amid expiring #FFC contract but #LUFC win race - Wales int’l to do medical in due course & join on long-term deal with higher salary @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/rlHULWbebl
🚨 EXCL: Liverpool inform RB Leipzig of willingness to pay package approaching €100m for Yan Diomande. #LFC firmly in driving seat at present but studying more options if needed as #RBLeipzig want to keep 19yo + #PSG remain strong contender @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/J0zcTChtCg
Liverpool will sign another attacker/winger in addition to Victor Muñoz.
Optimism remains on Yan Diomande, but due to competition with PSG, and Leipzig's asking price, there are other targets.
Understand pace is the key criteria.
Also on the list are Köln's Said El Mala, Brighton's Yankuba Minteh and Lille's Matias Fernandez-Pardo.
All options in case Diomande doesn't arrive.
Bradley Barcola another player Liverpool have looked at this summer.🔴
🇪🇸 One versatile attacking option I’d love Liverpool to consider is Víctor Muñoz.
Only 22-years-old, he’s rapid and excels in one vs one situations.
He’s a very tenacious player, hard-working. Has a low centre of gravity, quick burst and a powerful physique that allows him to push past opponents with ease.
He’s comfortable receiving with his back to goal, makes excellent turns and a good link-up player as well. Also puts in decent crosses and cut-backs.
Has a very decent shot on him, too.
12 G/As this season may not seem like much but he delivered those numbers while playing in a side who were fighting for relegation.
Has played LW and RW all season. Even played in a central role in the past.
Still raw but he’s got all the ingredients to go very far.
Could be a key player off the bench for Spain at the World Cup.
Barcelona have been linked with him but Liverpool should be there, too.
🚨💣 EXCLUSIVE: Liverpool are set to sign Víctor Muñoz with HIJACK done, HERE WE GO! 🔴🇪🇸
Newcastle in advanced talks for days but #LFC enter the deal, verbally agree terms with Muñoz and activate €40m release clause.
All set to be signed and another big surpise. 🧨
🤍🇫🇷 Kylian Mbappé: “Konaté is a very aggressive defender, in the best sense. Never a bad move, he's tough in his marking, he wants his opponent to feel like they're going to have a rough night”.
“I love defenders like him on my team”.
My purpose in the game is fulfilled ⭐️
I lived out my childhood dreams, played on the biggest stages, won the biggest trophies. Grateful to God for all of it.
To all my fans, the clubs, my teammates and my family: this will forever be ours. Thank you.
The mission is complete. Now I step into my next calling.
More of the journey to come.
Love,
Divock Origi
