Liverpool Transfer Rumours

31 Mar 2026 15:16:02
Liverpool are going to sign a player from Wolves is what I've heard.

Seems to make sense. Let's see.

31 Mar 2026 16:23:13
Would have thought/hoped one of Gomes, Andre or Mane. Mane, my least favoured option, as think wingers with more experience required this summer with Rio as our development one.

31 Mar 2026 16:29:20
Matheus Mane, although there was a long term interest in both their Brazilian midfielders.

31 Mar 2026 16:33:25
Not far off Diomande in fairness for experience. And knows the league now.

31 Mar 2026 16:51:23
Diomande has scored 5x the amount of goals in their breakout year and is playing for a much bigger team in terms of where they're competing. Diomande is also a full international, with 9 apps and 3 goals for Ivory Coast.

Diomande is a RW, Mane has been playing on the left. Lots of reasons FM.

But yes, not a million miles of difference in experience.

Would still rather Gomes out of anyone in that squad for what we need.

31 Mar 2026 16:53:18
Like it or not but at some point we're going to have to start buying some English players, otherwise we'll be running small squads every season.

31 Mar 2026 17:07:22
Diomande plays on the left, COTG.

31 Mar 2026 17:12:07
Experience was the only reason I gave Gvardiol. Although I believe Diomande does also play on the left.

31 Mar 2026 17:18:46
Who's the homegrowners Woodman, Bradley, Frimpong, Gomez, Nyoni, Jones, Danns and Rio? We should be ok. Other good young English players at the club in Wright and Abe coming through. Should be trying to produce our homegrown players inhouse anyway to stay away from the ridiculous transfer fees.

31 Mar 2026 17:20:22
Diomande *can* play on the right, but he's right-footed, which would tend to push him out wide and limit Frimpong's ability to overlap.

I'd still love to see us sign him, but as a replacement for Gakpo, not Mo.

31 Mar 2026 17:26:51
Can see us actually signing Wharton, so that would be another. Could Beck cover Kerkez? He's injured, and I haven't seen enough. Can see Utd and City fighting it out for Anderson.
Any other home grown players out there? No idea about what system we actually intend to grow into, but I do like Archie Gray and Morgan Rodgers.

Probably cost a fortune unless Spuds go down or Villa need money.

31 Mar 2026 17:31:52
Nyoni, Danns and Rio wouldn't count in full squad list as they are not "of age" yet.
They'll be on the youth list.

31 Mar 2026 17:50:37
Does it really matter though, Ginger, if as we all expect their minutes increase next season? For all we know Rio could end up our starting LW next season. Stranger things have happened. We are never going to have 25 senior players, are we? Even this year we have 22, and that includes a 3rd keeper and Ramsey, who is never gonna play.

31 Mar 2026 17:51:46
Florian Musiala do you argue with your own reflection? 🤣 A poster could say the sky is blue, you would say it was green & when they point out how wrong you are, you would say i was just saying its the sky.🤣

31 Mar 2026 18:29:06
FM should literally just change his name to Devil's Advocate.
Nothing wrong with that. It's literally my job! Won't win you many friends though!

31 Mar 2026 18:43:50
Jesus, lads, I thought I was discussing, not arguing. Is this not what we are here for? SzSz8, if you're talking about my reply to Gvardiol, I'm right. They are both having a breakout season. I fail to see where the big difference in experience is. Diomande has played a grand total of 22 more senior games than Mane. At an inferior level.

31 Mar 2026 19:01:29
Florian your doing it again, i'm not on about any one post, it's just your general posting. You love to be right but that means only you can be right, nobody else. Nothing wrong with that, its who you are & you keep being you it makes for an entertaining read.

31 Mar 2026 13:20:53
BBC mentioning us being interested in Luis Suarez of Sporting.

I'll bite if there's some tooth to it.

31 Mar 2026 15:03:47
O, that hurt, cooler mate !!!

30 Mar 2026 20:06:22
Bild reporting XA done.

30 Mar 2026 20:36:15
Daily Mirror says Slot is here for the long haul and is happy with him. 🤔

30 Mar 2026 20:53:13
Bild was reporting from the report a week ago, which said we contacted him, not that it was done.

30 Mar 2026 21:02:05
Doesn't matter what they say, Carra said it and I believe him.

30 Mar 2026 21:05:49
BeKind, don't think they did, mate. Where'd you see that?

30 Mar 2026 21:25:32
The fume on here when Slott gets his new contract will be mental.

30 Mar 2026 21:38:42
Been all over social media today and Carra has stated it, happier days.

30 Mar 2026 21:39:47
New contract is hilarious. 🤣 Manc alert. 🤐

30 Mar 2026 22:58:30
Fatwallet, I see lots of second hand social media recycling the claims, but nobody linking to an article on Sportbild by Axel Hesse, which has been cited as the original source.

The most recent Sportbild article on Alonso/Liverpool from Hesse (or anybody else) is from 25th March, titled "Alonso ready for spectacular return." But the article makes no claims outside of Alonso being the top candidate and that the club have remained in contact with him.



Seems like the claims on social media are misconstrued garbage tbh. Looks like somebody read an old headline, took it out of context, and a few others followed suit.

31 Mar 2026 07:18:50
Sowhat is yet another troll who'll revel in communal disappointment

31 Mar 2026 08:12:26
Chewy only stating it was on social media, there was no new information.

31 Mar 2026 12:28:55
Fatwallet, op claimed Bild said XA was done. That's definitely new information. Appreciate that you're just sharing what you know, I'm only stating that it's garbage, mate.

31 Mar 2026 16:11:29
Alonso coming in is old news now. 😂

Slot is here til the end of the season, regardless of a difference of opinion at the club. Only us tumbling down the table may change that.

My thoughts since about December have always been a mutual parting of ways at the end of the season, because Slot won't walk, nor does it seem anyone has the balls to sack him.

It suits all parties. His CV doesn't have a blemish, and we get who we wanted all along.

31 Mar 2026 16:39:03
Won't walk at all, or not till the end of the season? Don't see how anyone will think it's mutual, or that he has left the job at a worldwide club to go manage Ajax. A sacking is what it'll have to be.

31 Mar 2026 17:59:33
It will be mutual because both sides agree to part ways. It's that simple, so should be easy for you to comprehend, FM.

31 Mar 2026 19:21:54
Ah ye know yourself though, Fields. When it comes across the Sky Sports screen on the yellow ticker that a manager and a club have parted ways by mutual consent, no one ever believes it. 😆 Just don't get why Slot would willingly leave, that's all.

30 Mar 2026 18:39:49
Afternoon All, I posted a few weeks back about Christos Mouzakitis. Just a little update on that, looks like Liverpool faded out of it and are looking at more established players for the CM position. Both Milan sides look to be going head-to-head for his signature, will still be a yr loan back.

Regarding incommings, last year all the talk was Wharton as the next best thing, now looks to have swung to Anderson, i'm still a huge fan of the way wharton plays, the way he studies the ball for a few seconds before passing reminds me of trent. Is there any link to us this summer and his signature?

Thanks Eds.

30 Mar 2026 19:03:51
As a Greek, I gotta say the supposed interest sounded like old year's news. He's regressed massively this season, with mostly below mediocre performances, and I never believed he would ever have the physicality needed. Many better midfielders in his age bracket out there.

It made no sense that we'd be looking to sign him. Even Kostoulas, who was miles ahead of him in terms of both talent and "readiness", is struggling for minutes in Brighton (though my opinion is that Hurzeler is a criminal for the way he's been treating him).

30 Mar 2026 19:41:46
Wharton looks to me as someone who, if surrounded by the right players, can be world class, but if not, can look poor.

Based on our current strikers, if we play a diamond with him at the base in a Pirlo/regista role, that would suit him best.

30 Mar 2026 19:50:51
If we signed a Guimaries R Caicedo type along with Wharton, I think it would be brilliant, but I don't think Wharton on his own is what we need.

30 Mar 2026 21:00:50
I like Wharton and would be happy if we signed him. I'm sure if Xabi is coming in he could help develop him further. Would love Anderson too, obviously.

30 Mar 2026 21:35:08
Thanks, TLC and Last Baron - interesting.

30 Mar 2026 22:43:27
I'd be happy if we only signed both Warton and Anderson this summer. Would completely sort us out.

30 Mar 2026 23:04:36
@Tic75, Bit weird 'studying the ball for a few seconds before passing it'. I used to look at a fruit pastel for a few seconds before eating it, but I bet you can't study a ball for a few seconds before passing it!!

31 Mar 2026 02:39:04
Is studying the ball for a minute code for "he takes forever to pass it" - in which case he will fit right in this year's side. Personally, I would prefer a midfielder who has already considered his options before he gets the ball and then makes the right pass as soon as he has received it.

31 Mar 2026 07:20:31
What about the Lamine Kamara rumours? He's more all action.

31 Mar 2026 09:52:06
Neither Anderson nor Wharton are great defensively.
Anderson is more like Jordan Henderson in that he is combative, but when he is man on man he gets turned easily. Again, like Hendo, when he gets in dangerous areas his shots more often get blocked.
I think he's better than Jones and the version of MacAllister we are seeing, but I would prefer a proper DM.

31 Mar 2026 16:24:27
@NoMoreBoom, Ha, you know what I mean, he doesn't rush a pass, the technique is very similar. @thelastbaron, I can't pass comment, I don't know him, just what's been passed across to me through a source, thought it was an interesting 'rumour' to share.

31 Mar 2026 16:47:16
I know @Tic. I just try and keep it light, mate. It's all just a bit of craic. Cheers for posting.

30 Mar 2026 11:26:08
Xa apparently wants Arda Guler as his main signing.

30 Mar 2026 11:47:16
Get him in.

30 Mar 2026 11:50:41
Needs to up his work rate imo.

30 Mar 2026 11:57:28
He reminds me of a better version of Suso! I really rated Suso back in the day, if only he worked under Klopp & not Bodgers, things might have been very different for his career.

30 Mar 2026 12:05:59
Don't need him, do we? Doesn't he play in Wirtz's position, and I'd doubt he'd come in as a back up.

30 Mar 2026 12:32:23
Wirtz played much more on the left at Leverkusen, so Guler on the right as part of a 3-4-2-1 behind Etikite/Isak might work.

30 Mar 2026 12:32:56
Think Xa favours two CAMs behind a striker. With Wirtz, Dom and Guler we'd be well covered.

30 Mar 2026 12:33:06
Xabi must want to play two AMs and Scrabble in the double pivot with Grav?

30 Mar 2026 12:46:00
I imagine Szobo will be delighted, considering their bickering. :P

30 Mar 2026 12:57:20
Guler is a sensational passer. His ceiling is very high, but he will need to adapt to PL's physicality. However, he is an RM fan, and I don't see him leaving when he is getting decent minutes already.

30 Mar 2026 14:15:08
I thought Guler doesn't get along well with the primadonnas in the RM team. I recall a rumour I read that he is ostracised by the other players there, bar a few. So he may be willing to leave if it is a toxic place for him.

30 Mar 2026 14:16:00
We need tough strong fast midfielders, we can only have so many silky players in our team, unfortunately the prem looks like it's heading like the way Arsenal play, all set pieces, throw ins, corners, we need a combative midfield to cope.

30 Mar 2026 14:58:08
In all honesty, I wouldn't read too much into formation with Xabi. His emphasis seems to be a team's ability to transition to new formations mid-match, and starting each match with a formation based on the opposition. Personally, I think Guler can be quite wasteful.

He's not high up my list. I would love a proper DM, a ball winner, that can sit in a back 3 or play part of a pivot, and not get dragged forward, but know when to sit and protect the back 2.

30 Mar 2026 15:20:38
Anderson should be the top target for us.

30 Mar 2026 16:45:00
We need a "Dunga" in our team, if you can remember him in Brazil's team. Going around the pitch quietly assaulting people and winning battles.

30 Mar 2026 16:48:27
Anderson would be great but he comes with an English tax and we can get better value elsewhere.

30 Mar 2026 16:50:05
Seems a strange move with Dom and Wirtz already at the club. So, we not bothering with Diomande, Olise now?

30 Mar 2026 18:31:09
BeKind agreed he'd be expensive but we are going to have to keep an eye on our non homegrown quota.

30 Mar 2026 19:52:01
Has Alonso signed?

30 Mar 2026 20:46:14
@1jj, In some dimensions he has, in this one the nearest we are is Bild 'reporting XA is done', which is good enough for me.

30 Mar 2026 20:58:14
Old rumour has been doing the rounds since at least 2024. The idea that he wanted to bring him in at Liverpool was reported back in late Jan or early February. I'd imagine this is just a recycling of that same story.

30 Mar 2026 08:40:38
Apparently Leeds interested in Elliot if he doesn't move to Villa. Think we would want the same fee of £35m.

30 Mar 2026 09:25:39
I just hope wherever Harvey ends up, he gets game time. He's way too good in my opinion to be warming a bench, especially due to commercial politics like we have seen at Villa this season.

30 Mar 2026 10:00:54
I'd keep him.

30 Mar 2026 10:38:03
He won't be going to Villa. Safe to say that he'd probably rather defecate in his own hands and clap with his mouth wide open than ever sign permanently for them or play for a team managed by Unai Emery.

30 Mar 2026 10:43:02
Really, Victor !!!!!

30 Mar 2026 11:58:56
I would keep Elliot if Slot is leaving, he is a good player when used right. Klopp used him in 50 games or so in his last season, so he can't be that bad!

30 Mar 2026 12:52:20
If we were playing 3.4.2.1 under Alonso, he'd be decent cover for one of the 2 am's.

30 Mar 2026 13:11:32
Somewhere like Leipzig would suit him better and could be used as part of a Diamonde deal if we are signing him.

30 Mar 2026 14:15:53
That's your best one yet, Viktor. Made me laugh out loud reading that. 🤣

30 Mar 2026 16:51:18
Lad wants to play though. To be a starter. That's why he made the decision to leave in the first place.

30 Mar 2026 19:57:30
Spot on, Max and Gmil. He would suit that position, I think, is HG, a club fan, and only got fazed out under Slot due to not having his desired attributes. I definitely keep him. His eye and ability for a through ball or pass over the top are massively underrated.

29 Mar 2026 17:24:06
Chelsea and Liverpool could battle it out for the signature of Switzerland Under-21s captain Roggerio Nyakossi.

30 Mar 2026 12:49:15
What would the battle consist of? Rock, paper scissors? Scrabble? PlayStation? Answers in a postcard please.

30 Mar 2026 13:27:38
A Game of Thrones joust tournament would be good.

30 Mar 2026 18:01:47
Hopscotch Battle Royale.

29 Mar 2026 16:59:24
Hi all,

Wolves are interested in Stefan Bajcetic. It remains to be seen whether or not they will move for him in the summer. Potential for a deal there.

29 Mar 2026 17:59:27
Possibly a swap deal (cash for difference) for Andre or has that ship sailed?

29 Mar 2026 18:02:30
Could be a good move for the lad.

Ed,

What is he suffering from which has taken almost 2 years of recovery, and when do you think he will be fit?

Cheers!

{Ed025's Note - 1...laziness, 2 when he gets his alarm clock fixed,, :)

29 Mar 2026 20:28:44
Bajtecic = sell sell sell.

29 Mar 2026 18:21:03
Silly boy if true Ed because he certainly has talent.

{Ed025's Note - used to turn up late for training FM and had a bit of an attitude mate, not the first and will not be the last i expect but he has not done himself any favours thats for sure..

29 Mar 2026 19:51:08
🤣🤣🤣🤣 good stuff ed25

29 Mar 2026 20:59:26
He's a crock. Good luck to him. We need horses for courses and he isn't one.

29 Mar 2026 23:35:17
Not talented nor astute enough. An obvious out.

30 Mar 2026 00:32:29
Bajetic is a case of a lad who everyone wants to do well, but will not make it to the top. Remember Pacheco? Same story.

30 Mar 2026 06:27:13
Well, he certainly has talent or he wouldn't be at Liverpool in the first place but that's only one part of the jigsaw. Application and luck are also needed. Can't see us getting too much to be honest.

30 Mar 2026 09:25:46
I think he could do really well under Slot. I think he could sort out his tardiness if he only has to train for 20 minutes every now and then!

30 Mar 2026 10:23:51
I have to be honest and say I forgot Bajcetic existed.

30 Mar 2026 11:00:34
I remember, I used to get slaughtered for suggesting he will never make it with us.

30 Mar 2026 11:58:13
Mikey
Those 2 games in DM had many suggesting he was the next Kante. 🤣

30 Mar 2026 12:01:11
I watched him in La Liga last season (3 games). He was subbed off in all of them (at half time in 2), and was very very average. People on twatter overrating his performances without actually watching him. Sell sell sell.

30 Mar 2026 15:57:23
Totally agree, never rated him, far too lazy for me! You play in the middle (up, down, left, right, doesn't matter). You run your stones off! In fact that's what we need right now!

29 Mar 2026 09:56:05
More of a question to the Eds and ITKs, if I may.

There's going to be a lot of uncertainty surrounding the club this summer; manager in question, so is the Sporting Director, even Edwards linked with a move to Saudi, Salah leaving, our biggest ever signing having an injury-plagued year etc.

The list is quite extensive.

And with the talks of a 2nd club falling through, it got me wondering what is FSG's thinking in terms of their medium- and long-term ownership of the club?

With so much work to do, and the costs involved, are they considering selling or anything?

Thanks.

29 Mar 2026 11:46:14
Not an ITK. Pure speculation.

There's a big war on, an unhinged US President, uncertainty in Gulf State finances/investment appetite and likelihood of economic shocks that could rival Covid.

The number of would be owners and investors in sporting institutions might be small to none during this uncertain period.



As they did during Covid, FSG will likely shelve anything significant for the time being. I hope the committed academy infrastructure investment remains secure.

29 Mar 2026 11:57:42
That's a great point that I completely forgot about FlyPelicanFly. So much will be up in the air across the globe these days.

29 Mar 2026 12:03:14
Agree Fly, there will be definitely no takers at the moment.

29 Mar 2026 12:16:34
Liverpool is FSG's biggest earner. It could be considered very short-sighted for them to jump ship because of a few speed bumps. The multi-club model is not an easy move to make. I wouldn't necessarily take the shelving of the project as a sure sign that they want to sell up. There are plenty of reasons for it to be on hold; it's a difficult thing to accomplish. Major positions within the club are currently in question; we've not hit expectations, and income may be reduced next season, so there's just too much up in the air for FSG to make such a commitment right now.

Pressing pause is without doubt the best business move at the moment. Let's be real, FSG could sell up whenever they want and turn a huge profit on their investment. I'm sure the idea has been considered in some capacity on more than one occasion, but I doubt it's top of their agenda at the moment. They've seen huge growth since they initially came on board and there's no sign of it stopping any time soon.

29 Mar 2026 14:25:12
Keep in mind that FSG very much wants to get an NBA franchise. With the NBA recently announcing their plans to expand, this may be the reason speculation has increased regarding a potential LFC sale.

29 Mar 2026 16:51:31
NBA franchises in the UK starting with Liverpool
LeBron.

29 Mar 2026 17:26:16
I can't see Premier League club revenues being affected in the same way they were during Covid.
Covid was unique in that nobody could attend matches.
Lack of matchday revenue and rebates to broadcasters when matches weren't played were the issue.


This economic situation is different. Matches will continue and therefore be broadcast and people will attend matches.
Even in the financial crisis, which is the worst I've experienced (in the investment industry), Premier League club revenues remained resilient.

29 Mar 2026 20:57:47
Assuming people have petrol to get to the grounds....

29 Mar 2026 21:57:16
I'm sure a tongue in cheek comment re the petrol, but this will pass. These things always do.

30 Mar 2026 08:23:11
It was, the only thing that will remain is that the prices won't drop as far or as fast this time unless the idiot plans on keeping thousands of American troops to patrol the Straits of Hormuz indefinitely.

There's a funny bit in one of Woody Allen's films - Love and Death I think- and it's about the village idiot's convention in Minsk. It's a line that goes something like 'if they brought all the village idiots together in one village, you'd still be the village idiot'. Donald, more and more, brings the gag to mind whenever I see or hear him.
