Fabrizio Romano ? EXCLUSIVE: "Atlético Madrid top target at left back is Andy Robertson, appreciated internally as ideal candidate.
Not an easy deal at Liverpool rate him highly even with Kerkez due to join the club soon.
Atléti have Robertson higher than Theo on their shortlist at LB so far"
I think this might open the door for a move for Hato.
1.) 14 Jun 2025 14:05:41
Could LFC move in for Hato. I just feel he is the right profile that covers two positions while the French prodigy comes in as a replacement for Quansah.
2.) 14 Jun 2025 14:10:24
Or provide an opportunity for Owen Beck as cover.
3.) 14 Jun 2025 14:20:25
I hope so Alonso as Hato is very good and robo is clearly on a rapid decline. Also think he’s only got 1 year left on his contract so it would make great business.
4.) 14 Jun 2025 14:38:51
Is this the Robertson that's represented by Trent's brother and is currently negotiating a contract extension. Hmmm.
5.) 14 Jun 2025 14:45:03
We re signing Wirtz so anything is possible.
Everytime I see Atletico get linked with our players, I can't help but think of my second dream signing as a possibility.
6.) 14 Jun 2025 14:48:57
Interesting Alonso, thanks for sharing. Excited about Hato potentially coming in, but worried about the leadership in the team.
In Slot I trust!
7.) 14 Jun 2025 14:58:04
Trent's brothers should be nowhere near the club. Robbo? that'll be 15m, please. then we can buy a defence minded LB to rotate with Kerkez.
8.) 14 Jun 2025 15:04:33
Robbo was my favourite player from klopps era. Love him and always will. I think he's under rated and under appreciated. Imo he was the best LB in world football for 2,3 years. Not one of the best. It's true what neville said a few years ago that did go overlooked. What he gave in games that we struggled, the will to keep running forward when he was f*cked. You don't get that anymore. It's very rare. Top top player for many years.
Imo though, be ruthless. Move him on and get a few quid back. Probably what we paid for him or slightly more. Though if he's hearts on staying you could see the club and slot respecting that and not outing him. Great character but his game is on the decline now.
Edd001 I'd say you'd keep him for another year? He probably has his heart set on a celtic move next season. Can't believe this extension talk. His legs are in decline.
9.) 14 Jun 2025 15:13:07
I’m with you Longthing76. Robbo has been a brilliant servant but time catches up to every player and we are seeing that with him. Hato can cover two positions, just turned 19 in March and has a lot of experience already, despite his young age.
Get him in now, as he can rotate with Kerkez when we need a more defensive setup. Can also provide stronger centre back depth, as I have just read on here that we are moving for that 19 year old centre back Nathan Zeze.
10.) 14 Jun 2025 15:56:06
No way Robbo does an interview in Spanish.
He’s not even fully mastered English yet ?.
11.) 14 Jun 2025 16:30:26
Haha love it JK23.
12.) 14 Jun 2025 16:31:32
1 year on his contract, according to most on here his legs went last season. We would stupid not to take £10-15m. Let's not have any of this Klopp sentiment to players of old ?.
Harsh I know, as I still think he has a lot to offer on and off the pitch.
13.) 14 Jun 2025 17:29:54
Robbo has been a fantastic servant for the club and as Batman states the world's best LB. I don't think that's an exaggeration either.
14.) 14 Jun 2025 23:31:14
Batman7, no doubt Robbo was the best left fullback in the world for a while, plays with a heart of a Lion, we love and appreciate him, and he no doubt loves being a Liverpool player. Great servant for us, and considering we got him for 8M I think he deserves to go out on his own terms, would be beneficial for him and us if he's not playing as many games, and we would probably get more for Tsimi anyway.
15.) 15 Jun 2025 16:25:40
He was talked as the best left back in the world when he was accompanied by Virgil, Gini and Mane on the left side of the field. He hasn't been at his best since Gina and Mane left. The right thing to do his replace him with Kerkes. If Trents big Brother can box him off with a sunny career ending move to Madrid, then good luck to him he owes us nothing and will be fondly remembered. Even if he stands up and speaks perfect spanish.
08 Jun 2025 17:06:14
Fabrizio Romano:?? BREAKING: Victor Osimhen has rejected Al Hilal proposal.
Despite agreement club to club with Napoli for €75m fee, Osimhen says no to the Saudi Pro League club. ❌
Galatasaray will insist to sign him with race now open again?
Well, looks like there is still hope in us getting a good transfer fee for Nunez. Al Hilal, he is all yours.
1.) 08 Jun 2025 17:19:36
Thank god, thought Osimhen signing for Al Hilal was going to create a right mess for us there for a second (not) .
2.) 08 Jun 2025 17:35:09
And against overwhelming opinions on here.
I say, a chance for us to get Oshimen if Isak or Martinez or not attainable.
3.) 08 Jun 2025 17:39:22
Wait, I thought Oshimen was a mercenary, wouldn’t a mercenary go where the most money is?
4.) 08 Jun 2025 17:44:42
OR he’s angling for even more money by calling their bluff.
That’s how negotiations work. He did the same with Napoli.
5.) 08 Jun 2025 17:51:59
Ed1 explained he wasn’t a mercenary and it was the beef with Napoli that saw him move, people just don’t want to have there own story.
6.) 08 Jun 2025 17:53:21
Depends on the quality of footy they want to play also.
7.) 08 Jun 2025 18:38:03
Or there’s quality of life, location, family considerations, lifestyle and lots of other considerations to be taken into account.
On a different note - what’s wrong with a player, or in fact anybody, trying to get the best wage they can? Genuine question, if there are people willing to pay in the context of what the market will bear, you could make a very strong case that player, or the player’s agent would be remiss in not getting the best deal they can.
8.) 08 Jun 2025 18:27:59
Ed1 offered an opinion. He didn’t make a statement of fact.
Juves sporting director, formerly of Napoli, said dealing with his negotiations was the worst experience of his professional career.
So we have two people, one who has negotiated with him, who hold different views of a player who scores goals for fun but none of Europes big teams want to sign.
What do you suspect the issue is, bar his 256 days injury in less that four years?
9.) 08 Jun 2025 19:08:13
WDW
Footballers want to compete at the highest level, there is a drive amongst top professional to pit your skill against theirs. They don’t compete in World Cups for money but for legacy. To actually see who is the best.
So whilst the very highest level of football is available to you it’s the done thing to stay at that level. Saudi isn’t that, so leaving the proper leagues in your prime for money seems cheap. It seems low rent. There is time later to go to MLS or Saudi (or before that China) but at 27/ 28 - nah.
10.) 08 Jun 2025 20:38:38
Well, credit where it’s due. He’s slept on that and realised he’d be throwing away the best part of his career playing goat herders in the desert, when he could be playing at the top and competing for major honours, maybe it was some kind of Scroogesque visitation of the ghost of footballers past reminding him that money really isn’t the be all and end all. Personally not convinced he’s any different from Nunez (scarily similar in many ways) but it appears he’s far less of a dickhead today and kudos to him for his epiphany.
11.) 08 Jun 2025 23:40:45
Goat herders?
I think you'd fail your own test, when you use terms like that, Vik.
12.) 09 Jun 2025 00:57:03
@WOW, you are making an assumption based upon what you would do if you were in his shoes. There are loads of examples of players not moving because of circumstances beyond money and playing at a higher level - the most recent being Zubimendi last season. Not everybody is motivated by money or fame.
I’m not saying you are wrong and I actually agree that an overwhelming number of athletes in all sports are ‘driven’, but not all of them are, which is what I was saying.
13.) 09 Jun 2025 06:34:38
Do you get many goats in the dessert?
I wouldn’t think they’d last too long with nothing to eat/ drink?
14.) 09 Jun 2025 07:39:07
I once found an angora in my tiramisu, Ron.
15.) 09 Jun 2025 08:14:10
Not many but a few Ron. Roberto Firmino to name just one.
28 May 2025 17:09:05
Akira. You mentioned not long ago about a bigger or better signing than Wirtz due through the doors next. Seeing if you're now in a position to give a name, or confirm if that signing is still going ahead?
1.) 28 May 2025 17:21:07
It’s impossible to have a bigger or better signing than Wirtz.
2.) 28 May 2025 17:26:22
28 May 2025 16:56:03
There is one striker everyone is missing who is world class and liverpool are interested in. 7th June because that's when the club representatives meet to discuss a couple of players.
It will be a coup if successful.
Akira 20 times
From the man himself - Guess we might find out in 10 days :)
3.) 28 May 2025 17:44:15
M. Thuram, L. Martinez, Guirahssey.
4.) 28 May 2025 17:45:52
To discuss a couple players I think may indicate the Nunez and Alvarez swap, which would be quite the coupe.
Could be Gomez/ quansah to Newcastle with Isak coming this way too, though.
5.) 28 May 2025 17:57:54
Alvarez is killing it in Spain, and loves it there. Its not him.
6.) 28 May 2025 17:59:50
Ok thoughts on some names:
Lautaro Martinez - feels unlikely as he’s more of a SS
Viktor Gyokeres - much more plausible but no noise
Marcus Thuram - bit older than we usually go for at 27
Victor Osimhen - insane wages
Lois Openda - coming off a poor season
Samu Aghehowa - seems very raw
Ollie Watkins - older
Mateo Retegui - seems a good shout, named by Carra
I could keep throwing out more names (Evanilson, Burkardt, Woltemade, Amoura, Mateta, etc) but most of these either don’t match his description or seem very unlikely. Best guess is Lautaro I think but who knows.
7.) 28 May 2025 18:03:44
Mark08 - I agree. It would be pretty hard to top Wirtz.
Enigma - Cheers. I completely missed that mate. What has thrown me is the “There is one striker everyone has missed who is world class” part. It can’t be Isak or Alvarez as both have been mentioned a lot. Now the following I wouldn’t put in the world class bracket but they have been mentioned, which are Gyokeres, Osimhen, Sesko, Ekitike. So can’t be any of them. This leads me to believe it’s one of Harry Kane, Lautaro Martinez or Lewandowski. Those are the only world class strikers that everyone has missed. I have a feeling it’s either Kane or Lautaro Martinez. And I would take either in a heartbeat.
8.) 28 May 2025 18:03:24
It could really be Isak, everybody has written him off after Newcastle secured CL spot so maybe that means everybody is missing the world class striker. Newcastle oddly still search for a striker and we are in a very good position with their interest in Gomez and Quansah.
9.) 28 May 2025 18:05:55
I think we should give Akira time to work. Right now, I'm sure he has Hughes in a room, beat up, bloodied and chained to a chair.
"I'm going to ask you one more time. WHO ARE WE SIGNING!? "
{Ed025's Note - love it Davey..
10.) 28 May 2025 18:06:36
Guirassy is 29 so he's out surely. Martinez is 27 too, so like Thuram, seems a bit older than we like.
11.) 28 May 2025 18:20:28
I think (no knowledge, just a random guess) that it will be Sesko.
12.) 28 May 2025 18:26:58
Osimhen is world class and well priced.
13.) 28 May 2025 18:33:38
For the record :) - I suggested Guirassy a few weeks back and the same reply was received about his age. IMHO so what he's 29 - 3 or 4 year contract as a placeholder whilst we look for the next generation of strikers to appear. He's been banging them in for fun this past season.
14.) 28 May 2025 18:37:04
I think it'll be Retegui personaly.
I would also suggest Harry Kane would score lots of goals at Liverpool but will be 32 soon and likely too old.
15.) 28 May 2025 18:39:23
Wouldn't surprise me if we went for evanilson of Bournemouth.
16.) 28 May 2025 18:44:08
Laturo Martinez please.
17.) 28 May 2025 18:51:54
What about Vlahovic? One year left on his contract. Worth a shout at 35 mil.
18.) 28 May 2025 18:51:59
Lautaro loves inter and is on big money there, too. Guirassy is a decent enough player but the first part of the bundesliga season he was poor and had some very questionable body language when things didn't go his way. Retegui is an interesting player, great in the air and in the box but he's only had one season scoring those numbers.
19.) 28 May 2025 18:52:43
World class is world class. It’s Vini Jr. Or l. Martinez.
20.) 28 May 2025 18:55:04
Haaland?
21.) 28 May 2025 18:59:09
Lautaro is the captain of Inter, he is on 290k euros pw, I do not see him leaving. And who are the couple of players Liverpool are discussing with Inter? Lautaro and Bastoni double announcement maybe :D.
22.) 28 May 2025 19:18:07
Vini and Tchoumeni.
23.) 28 May 2025 19:22:59
Dominic - I do not want Vini Jnr anywhere near our club. He is one big cry baby, throws his toys out the pram when the game gets tough and is massively overrated.
Kpm100 - That’s the other world class striker that everyone has missed. But he has just signed a new contract, so chances of him coming is about 0%. Only way that would happen is if he had a release clause inserted into that new contract. Even then Haaland would cost a fortune. World class striker though and would be a shoe in to score 30+ league goals in our side but ain’t happening, unfortunately.
24.) 28 May 2025 19:33:39
I didn’t even think of Haaland and for me he is the only striker that fits the description. If we’re saying bigger and better than Wirtz then for me it can only be Yamal. Not technically a striker but if he said RWF people would lose their minds.
Think it’s all just a load of bs personally though.
25.) 28 May 2025 19:35:06
Alonso, I agree, just throwing it out there as there always seems to be something bubbling under between him and guardiola.
26.) 28 May 2025 20:02:45
It’s Kane.
27.) 28 May 2025 20:20:19
It’s Carroll, lads.
28.) 28 May 2025 20:41:20
Kpm100 - ‘World class striker’ is subjective. That being said, the only universally recognised world class striker missed by everyone, so that excludes Isak and Alvarez as they have been mentioned for the last few months would be Haaland, like you mentioned. Also, that is the only striker out of the two mentioned above that would top the Wirtz signing in terms of statute and buzz.
Personally, I just want a striker that can score 15 - 20 league goals and I’m happy. Call it Nunez fatigue ?.
29.) 28 May 2025 22:21:12
Wonder if the ? is going to hit the ? at City and Haaland wants out.
30.) 28 May 2025 22:36:33
Kane - no thanks.
Haaland is an interesting one. All the characteristics to go down in history but Thierry Henry made some very good points about his lack of football intelligence which is holding him back. Perhaps his physicals have enabled him to dominate so much that he has never had to work on his reading of the game. Either way I can't see us being able to afford his salary let alone his transfer fee.
31.) 29 May 2025 00:20:23
Maybe a contrarian opinion bit I personally don't feel like we need a "world class" striker with Wirtz, Salah etc in our team already.
We just need a solid finisher that won't miss sitters like Darwin.
Surely we can get someone like that, no?
32.) 29 May 2025 07:51:52
Davey Sulls, when I read that I got an image of Casino Royale lol, Richard Hughes tied to the chair with Akira standing over him, twirling that rope
'You will tell me who we are signing'
???.
07 Aug 2024 22:14:07
Zubimendi has agreed to join Liverpool. Extremely talented player and perfect 6 for Slots system.
The fact he turned down Arsenal, United, Barcelona, Bayern and I'm sure others and Richard Hughes got it done (almost) is something. Great times ahead!
1.) 07 Aug 2024 22:32:48
Fingers crossed.
2.) 07 Aug 2024 22:39:52
Any player who can get in the Spanish national midfield whilst playing for a relatively unfashionable club gets a thumbs up from me ?.
3.) 07 Aug 2024 22:43:33
Looks like a good signing for sure (if it happens which it now seems likes) .
With him in the team we'll probably experience less heart attack inducing moments as Liverpool fans haha.
4.) 07 Aug 2024 22:56:24
I hope he can handle occassional thug ball and 10 month winters.
5.) 07 Aug 2024 23:07:37
If he does as well as the last DCM we bought from Sociadad, I'll be happy.
6.) 07 Aug 2024 23:09:36
He’s not joining FC Sibir Novosibirsk, Vango.
7.) 08 Aug 2024 00:00:24
Steady on nothing signed.
8.) 08 Aug 2024 00:22:51
Nothing confirmed yet but it is clearly getting closer. Eds seem to be doing what they usually do and go quiet during this period.
9.) 08 Aug 2024 01:10:55
Here BB what exactly has this got to do with the Ed's being quiet?
10.) 08 Aug 2024 01:15:08
Sociedad are pretty bold for selling both of their star midfielders, merino and zubimendi, wonder what their plans are to replace pretty much their most important players besides take.
11.) 08 Aug 2024 06:17:35
ViktorVaughan-At least luton and burnley went down.
12.) 08 Aug 2024 06:55:04
I’ll get excited when he signs. I still doubt but hope I’m wrong. No.6 shirt available too.
13.) 08 Aug 2024 07:33:14
Vango stop talking utter nonsense.
It’s more like 11 month winters ?.
14.) 08 Aug 2024 08:38:40
In fairness Vango you have just named two worse places to go than Siberia, credit where it’s due.
15.) 08 Aug 2024 09:34:30
Still haven’t seen anything on any platforms saying the player has agreed to the move.
13 Jun 2024 22:30:03
Ed2. I know there were issues with Etienne Reijnen obtaining a work permit. But is is true that he now officially won't be joining because efforts to obtain one is no longer a viable option?
Just read news breaking from last night stating that is the case.
{Ed002's Note - The WP issue has not been resolved so it is less likely.}
1.) 14 Jun 2024 11:25:45
Surely he will go on a skilled workers visa? I imagine he will be on more than £38.5k a year.
{Ed002's Note - It is not quite as simple as that.}
2.) 14 Jun 2024 13:45:47
I saw an article that said there is also a work permit issue for another one of the backroom staff (may have been the goalkeeper coach) . So not the smoothest handover we could have hoped for.
3.) 14 Jun 2024 13:59:26
Apparently he hasn’t got required qualifications. Could an analyst work remotely I wonder until he gets his badges or will we just have to bring someone else in for his job.

what is going on with humanity!
I have unfortunately seen a video of the car that ploughed into our fans and it looks like the driver meant to do it. This was meant to be a day of celebrations. People of all ages attended from kids to the elderly, who didn't expect to have this happen to them. I'm praying for everyone involved ?

Can’t be accidental, the driver steered into the crowd and then kept going with people in front of his car.
If it was an accident, you do an emergency stop.

6.) 26 May 2025 19:45:02
All my best for the people involved, I sincerely hope no one was seriously injured and I hope everyone gets the help they need, medical and psychological, to give this horrifying and traumatic event a place.
7.) 26 May 2025 19:49:32
We know it's not accidental, this country is falling to pieces and the polices first response is to stop people getting to the car! Praying for everyone there but the footage looks brutal.
8.) 26 May 2025 19:52:24
Yeah, that is definitely not an accident. That is a terrorist attack.
The vermin veered into a densely populated area, on purpose, on multiple occasions. I just wish the police had not protected him after the event. Callous, maybe, but **** like that doesn't deserve a trial.

Haven't posted in a while.
Just wanted to say what an achievement by Arne Slot. To win the league in his first season with basically zero signings takes some going.
Soak it in guys because something tells me this is just the beginning of things under Slot ?.
1.) 28 Apr 2025 12:57:56
What's up, Alonso1786. Hope you're back posting more often. Great day, indeed and it's not even over cos we have another chance to celebrate this momentous occasion on the final day of the season and to our fortunate reds out there, the actual parade.
16 Jun 2025 18:22:07
I'm never going to dance again, guilty feet have got no rhythm.
14 Jun 2025 18:21:30
Cristian Romero is vice captain at Spurs and same for Argentina, which is no mean feat and shows he is a natural born leader. He actually captain his national side this year in the absence of Messi.
He obviously has ability and is highly regarded in football. So, I believe a lot of the ‘rashness’ accusation comes down to Spurs being, well, Spursy. Not to mention the ridiculous high line for life tactic that would make even VVD look ordinary.
For me, If Slot, Edwards and Hughes believe he is the centre back, then I’m more than happy with it.
14 Jun 2025 15:13:07
I’m with you Longthing76. Robbo has been a brilliant servant but time catches up to every player and we are seeing that with him. Hato can cover two positions, just turned 19 in March and has a lot of experience already, despite his young age.
Get him in now, as he can rotate with Kerkez when we need a more defensive setup. Can also provide stronger centre back depth, as I have just read on here that we are moving for that 19 year old centre back Nathan Zeze.
09 Jun 2025 17:20:17
@Thefields Cheers for the info.
Good news on the Isak front. The only problem on any potential deal was whether Newcastle were willing to sell. The fact Newcastle are now, means will most likely make move for Isak and will most likely get the deal done.
As for Gordon, I will admit he ain’t my first choice for the wide left forward role. That being said, he is hard working, has ability, him and his family are all die hard Liverpool fans - not to mention the fact Slot and the club want him, means they see more to his game than what he’s currently showing.
08 Jun 2025 19:33:08
Cheers Akira.
Are AC Milan in a position to offer us what Edwards/ Hughes are reportedly after for both Diaz and Nunez, i. e. between £60-70 million each?
15 Jun 2025 13:41:10
To be fair, I have been pretty consistent in my opinion on Jota. Not just on last seasons showing but the season before. In the 23/ 24 campaign Jota got 10 league goals, 1 EFL goal and 3 goals in the Europa League. These are not exactly move the needle numbers and hence why I wanted Jota moved on last summer. Compare those numbers to the one and only Nunez in the 23/ 24 campaign. 11 league goals, 1 EFL goal and 5 Europa League goals. As for Nunez, I gave up on him a long long time ago. So, you can kind of get the picture on why both strikers need to be moved on.
On a side note, I agree other players need to be moved on in addition to the two mentioned above. And going by the reports both on here by Akira and the well known journos/ ITK in your Ornstein, Joyce and Romano, it’s thankfully looking like that is what’s about to happen.

Based on last season, there is no case anyone can put forward for keeping Jota. I wasn’t even surprised to read last night that Jota got near enough identical numbers to the one and only Nunez in the 24/ 25 campaign, which is in itself some achievement. Time for him to go!

£50 million? Andrew Robertson is a 31 year old left back with one year left on his contract.
If a deal materialises, we will most likely be looking at a fixed figure of €25 million or £21.27 million in our currency. With €5 million or £4.25 million in add ons, which I think is a good deal, all things considered.

Sane is average at best. Plus the guy is greedy when in possession and has an uncanny knack for choosing the wrong option 9/ 10 times. Kudus blows hot and cold. And as for Cherki, he looks a talent but is a million miles behind Wirtz in nearly every single metric. Not to mention he’s allergic to pressing the opposition.
So in short, it’s a no for me.

Is that same Grealish that has been caught on video at least once a month staggering around the streets on Manchester completely off his face? Yeah, that’s a hard pass for me.
