Another one for the youth team.
Former Liverpool academy talent Patrick Farkas is reportedly close to returning to Liverpool this summer after leaving four years ago.

Hi eds, is there any truth in the rumour that we have spoken to West Ham in regards to Mateus Fernandes?
Quality player and I believe he is the type of player that could thrive in our midfield.
Thanks
{Ed001's Note - only ones I know of talking to them were Man Utd.}

Liverpool have agreed personal terms with Yan Diomande. A deal for the player will be completed within 48 hours.
Up the reds.
04 Jun 2026 18:11:03
Leipzig aren't getting £112 for 🇨🇮 Diomande
More realistically, £70m/£75m + Elliott (£20m/£25m) + Eichhorn ⌛️/ Nyoni loan.
04 Jun 2026 18:11:26
Didn't you also say Slot will be staying?
04 Jun 2026 18:15:35
We need to get Greek Scouser back.
He's just scored a great goal for Greece against Sweden. 😀
04 Jun 2026 18:17:58
He was until he wasn't.
04 Jun 2026 18:30:31
@Liver_La, I'm pretty sure that is the plan. He'll come back to replace Robbo.
04 Jun 2026 18:41:53
It seems unlikely that we'll complete a £100 million transfer in 48 hours.
04 Jun 2026 18:48:53
It's been ongoing for a while, Cookie, it sounds like, pal, so could just be the final parts.
I personally have no idea, but hope he does arrive.
04 Jun 2026 18:53:03
Maybe Diomande is signing until he isn't as well.
04 Jun 2026 17:15:48
Hi all,
Alexis MacAllister's agent has been touting moves elsewhere - particularly conversing with one Florentino Perez. The player is keen to depart this summer but is yet to make a personal decision until after the World Cup.
The club are aware of interest from Real Madrid and are open to selling for the right price.
04 Jun 2026 17:38:01
Swap for Valverde.
04 Jun 2026 17:48:18
Wahey!
04 Jun 2026 17:50:03
On current form he's worth about 4 packets of super noodles.
04 Jun 2026 17:50:07
He'll fit right in with that Madrid team with his antics.
04 Jun 2026 17:51:13
Who else can afford/attract him? Athleti / Barca?
Let's see how Hughes does negotiating with RM.
04 Jun 2026 17:53:12
Dream move that Something, but he's not going anywhere.
04 Jun 2026 17:57:33
Macca potentially going is fantastic news if true. Unfortunately, his legs have gone, and that was evident even in Slot's walking-pace tactics. He definitely doesn't fit into Iraola's style of play.
If all the ITK transfer news from the last few days is true, and both Macca and Gakpo depart, somebody may need to check on my wellbeing.
This is becoming an unreasonable amount of good news for one transfer window.
04 Jun 2026 18:03:21
It would be a mistake to sell him. This year, everyone played badly except for Sobo.
04 Jun 2026 18:13:09
He's lost, gets little physicality he had. It's best for all parties.
04 Jun 2026 18:20:06
I don't get where people are saying his legs have gone. He's 27 and had no major injuries. It's his desire that's gone.
04 Jun 2026 18:30:03
Problem we have right now with him is nobody will be stupid enough to buy him, he'll be stuck with us.
04 Jun 2026 18:37:57
He had some kind of mysterious injury at the end of last year. I don't buy that he was 'rested' at the end of the season. When does that ever happen?
04 Jun 2026 18:50:06
Hope he can have a good World Cup. Yes he was poor last season, but overall he is a top player. He will be better with Slott gone or we will get best part of 50-60 million for him.
04 Jun 2026 18:53:49
Hopefully he has a great World Cup so we can cash in.
04 Jun 2026 16:33:32
Literally been in Liverpool today visiting a client for work. (Not football related work). And a lot of people, especially around Concert Square where we had a few cheeky ones, were all saying Trent back to Liverpool. Anyone know of any truth in this.
I could see him personally wanting to com back even if he does not admit it with the signing of Dumfries knocking him further down the pecking order.
And him behind Diomande with his pace could be TAA & Salah take 2...
04 Jun 2026 16:49:05
No chance.
04 Jun 2026 16:50:29
He can sulk on the Madrid bench. He made his bed, he's gotta lie in it.
04 Jun 2026 16:57:20
He who is without sin etc etc... I'd have him back in a heartbeat.
04 Jun 2026 16:58:38
Going to cost Madrid 20 million to send him back.
04 Jun 2026 17:05:30
He was unbelievable for Jurgan but I don't think he suits our new manager.
04 Jun 2026 17:10:44
These rumours have been doing the rounds ever since he left. It's not happening. The lad's a lot more arrogant than he lets on; he's not scurrying back with his tail between his legs.
04 Jun 2026 17:13:22
Not happening.
04 Jun 2026 17:17:55
Anyone who doesn't want Trent back is so bitter they should be supporting Everton. They are also clueless about Liverpool, despite having watched them for years. Losing Trent was one of the biggest factors for the poor form last season. The whole team was affected, mostly Salah, who missed the long pass that got the ball to him early before the opposition had time to regain their shape.
A lot of the turgid passing around at the back was because, apart from VVD with the diagonal out to Salah, nobody else could beat the press with a quick accurate ball out to midfield. If Hughes and Edwards get the other recruitment right, I would go as far as to say that with Trent we would win the league. I'm sure Iraola would love him back and Trent would suit his system perfectly.
04 Jun 2026 17:24:01
He can't come back just yet... Has a Ballon d'Or to win over there...
04 Jun 2026 17:29:40
Tbh a lot of the turgid passing around the back was due to the coach. Trent wouldn't have been allowed to play to his strengths last season, Salah wouldn't have got any early balls and if he did he would have been on his own.
04 Jun 2026 17:29:45
I'm not bitter. I just think f*** him. He didn't give a toss about us. No effort in games (Utd springs to mind). Nah, no way back, like if your bird jumps into bed with another fella, no use to us now he's soiled.
04 Jun 2026 17:25:53
KemlynRoad .And you call other supporters clueless!
04 Jun 2026 17:32:42
Man chases riches and accepts a new job after years of service at his previous one - hardly a first or out of the ordinary, although I understand why our tribalism causes us to be unhappy about how he went about it.
He's still the best RB on the planet though, in the right team.
04 Jun 2026 17:34:05
Get a grip, Kemlyn!! Lad was flat out learning Spanish; he couldn't have got out of LFC fast enough! He sold his soul, and his status as a LFC legend went in smoke with the lad!
Best of look to him where ever he ends, but I, for one of many, never want him in LFC red again!!
04 Jun 2026 17:52:18
Strongly biased here, as McManaman and Trent were two of my favourite players to watch. I don't understand why players who cost us nothing have a duty to get us a transfer fee?
McManaman was perhaps more justified in doing an 'Bosman' after Houllier moved out Roy Evans, fell out with Fowler, and tried to shift Macca to Barcelona without consulting him.
Isn't Mo's behaviour worse? Was given a two year contract, then threw his toys out of the pram and demanded a free transfer after being benched for just 3 games.
I reckon Klopp would have advised against giving Mo that extension - a storm was going to come once he was no longer first choice. It's why Klopp let Mane go.
These guys have such short careers, I can't blame Trent for wanting to test himself overseas after winning every single cup with us. I don't think that this makes him any more arrogant than any of the alphas who are top level players.
It takes a certain kind of ego to make it to the top of any sport. I would take Trent back in a heartbeat.
04 Jun 2026 17:58:14
KemlynRoad, any idea how many assists Trent provided for Salah? 13, mate. That's not per season, that's over 9 years, total. Tell me again how Salah's not scoring because Trent's gone. Did somebody say clueless?
04 Jun 2026 18:12:53
I personally don't want him back for football and financial reasons. He didn't kill anyone, so I'm over him winding down his contract and stringing the fans along. But he's too inconsistent, defensively poor, and old for his transfer fee and salary. Avoid.
04 Jun 2026 18:17:05
If this were true, how would it work? Wouldn't we have to pay Real a fortune?
04 Jun 2026 18:18:51
Trent's head has got far too big for our club, if he had never played for us we wouldn't want him anywhere near us.
He thinks he does not have to defend and just walks around like he is the greatest player since Pele.
If we changed his attitude, worked hard, I would have him back in a heartbeat, but the player he is, no thanks.
Shankly would have dragged him out by his hair, and not let him back in, total opposite of what this club stands for.
What a shame for a child that grew up loving this club, that he went so far away, but I guess that's the world today.
04 Jun 2026 18:30:43
Trent didn't care about us when he left, in return I don't care about him now he has.
04 Jun 2026 16:32:13
Contacted Leipzig over Diomande. A head of PSG as it stands.
04 Jun 2026 17:11:34
...Shoulders, knees, and toes.
04 Jun 2026 17:19:51
Chewy, tell the truth. You were a Lil' John fan back in the day, weren'tcha?
04 Jun 2026 17:43:53
What's their number, mate? I'll give them a bell as well, see if I can swing it for us. 😂
04 Jun 2026 18:00:06
"From the windooooows..."
04 Jun 2026 18:28:57
"To the walls."
Sorry couldn't help myself. 😂
04 Jun 2026 16:17:33
Afternoon Gents
From what I've been told,
PSG think Diomande is too expensive, especially considering what options they already have.
The player likes PSG, he also likes LFC, this is just a media spin.
He hasn't agreed to join PSG, in fact, no official bid for him as of yet, from us, or PSG.
But I expect we will make the 1st move.
The player wants a deal done quickly, and so does LFC.
Cheers.
P.S. The transfer request from Gakpo is nonsense.
04 Jun 2026 16:48:54
Thanks, Robbo. He is an exciting player. Hopefully he joins.
04 Jun 2026 16:51:51
Any other wingers we're looking at if this doesn't materialise?
04 Jun 2026 16:52:36
Thanks, Robbo, it's posts like this that make this site incomparable to any other site out there. To you, and all the other regular ITK's, keep up the good work. It's appreciated by the majority. Thank you.
04 Jun 2026 16:53:47
Cheers Robbo, I must say I'm gutted the transfer request from Gakpo isn't genuine. He can be really good, but he's not an Iraola player.
04 Jun 2026 17:06:00
Thanks, Elnino. I was just about to ask the exact same thing. Is he worth the money or are there less risky alternatives, lads?
04 Jun 2026 17:12:31
Loely jubbly.
04 Jun 2026 17:16:43
I also think Diomande is expensive. We need 5-6 first team players this summer. Spending £100 million on one seems excessive.
04 Jun 2026 17:19:06
He looks a great player, but feel he's way overpriced.
04 Jun 2026 17:30:46
We should take that Rayan kid from Bournemouth too.
04 Jun 2026 17:34:05
Fees have gone crazy, but then so has the money in the game. The issue is with the pressure that comes with such fees, and the stats around how many players over 80m have been deemed a failure. 20 out of 27.
04 Jun 2026 18:14:11
"Bundesliga Tax" whenever Yan Diomande is brought up exhausts me.
Should you temper expectations for a 19 year old coming from abroad to the Premier League?
Absolutely.
But even if you subscribe to the "Bundesliga Tax" theory, please understand that Yan Diomande's '25/26 campaign is categorically the best u21 season in recent memory from the Bundesliga.
Whatever tax you need to mentally apply, double the starting value.
04 Jun 2026 14:52:29
Not ITK in the slightest but the latest I’ve seen online are that PSG are more interested in Kroupi Jr and see him as a more viable financial option to Diomande. It appears they’re focusing more on Kroupi who is keen on the deal.
04 Jun 2026 16:03:13
Fantastic news if true! I know he's not cheap, but he's a seriously promising young talent. Lookin forward to seeing him in red!
04 Jun 2026 13:30:33
Hearing Mo Salha has been injured with the Egypt squad may miss World Cup.
04 Jun 2026 15:50:48
I hope that's not the case, would feel so bad for him if that happened. Same with Robbo, I hope he gets to lead his team out.
04 Jun 2026 15:51:17
Does Mo Salah mate with Mo Salha?
04 Jun 2026 16:13:44
Bazz, no, Mo Salah is very close with Sarah Salad though, but keep it quiet.
04 Jun 2026 17:20:57
Forgot to add Salam to that, Zed.
