And now Spanish website Fichajes claim that Real Madrid have 'reached a comprehensive agreement' with the France international ahead of a potential move to the Bernabeu.
The La Liga giants are also 'preparing to pay the €50m (£43m) Liverpool demand for his transfer' and the report adds that Konate 'will be Real Madrid's next signing in the summer transfer window, in a deal that will be finalised in the coming days. '.
1.) 12 Jul 2025 18:05:44
Fichajes is Spanish for “jokey faeces”. That rag has zero credibility. It’s just a leafleting system for that nest of vipers Real Madrid.
2.) 12 Jul 2025 18:24:43
Is there any chance if this happens Virgil moves to right cb and we make a move for Bastoni. Virgil and Bastoni would be a dream partnership.
3.) 12 Jul 2025 18:31:04
Could we stop posting Fichajes stuff on here please?
4.) 12 Jul 2025 18:44:37
Fichajes must be Spanish slang for weapons grade loblocks.
5.) 12 Jul 2025 20:00:35
How can they reach an agreement with the player when he's in contract. surely tapping up?
6.) 12 Jul 2025 20:14:27
Grino. so yr basically saying Bastoni is better than Virg at LCB? Deary me!
7.) 12 Jul 2025 21:22:39
I think it was more a case of Grino trying to shoehorn 2 very players into the CB position. Maybe you didn’t understand Laddie ?.
8.) 12 Jul 2025 21:42:37
Laddie no I don’t but Virgil is right footed so him moving over should be no problem and I think Virgil is the best cb in the world but out of cb out there I can’t think of too many better cb than Bastoni to play alongside Virgil.
9.) 12 Jul 2025 22:14:07
Bastoni is an incredibly good CB. Would love him at LFC.
10.) 12 Jul 2025 23:40:15
Bazzinga, it's possible if the club gave permission for talks to begin with the players. It seemingly happened with Kerkez and Wirtz for us too, that an agreement for a contract with the player was reached first before an agreement with the club for the fees involved.
11.) 12 Jul 2025 23:53:02
Am I missing somthing? 43 m£ for Konate? The same CB that helped his country to the World Cup final? The premier league winner? Behave RM who says he's only worth £43m. Get the fxxk! Go away wobble your silly Spanish heads. Put another £20m on the table. Then come back . this guy is a beast! When you realise what we have, pay up or do one. Fed up with these twots .
YNWA.
12.) 13 Jul 2025 01:43:21
If I were Liverpool I’d have Konate at £ 75m for this window.
13.) 13 Jul 2025 07:36:32
Konate has 1 year left on his contract isn’t signing a new deal and looks happy to leave if we get £43 mill for him take it.
14.) 13 Jul 2025 08:27:06
If RM are about to bid for Konate, I’m interested to see what they do with Millito he plays same side as Konate, Although he just returned from serious injury, he’s a beast of a CD.
As far as replacement for Konate, I will leave that for people who have more knowledge than I.
{Ed077's Note - Milito has had a couple of very very injury hit seasons. Maybe they think when one of them is fit, the other is injured? ?
15.) 13 Jul 2025 08:27:19
So, a Spanish clickbait site literally called "turd" and some still don't question it?
Fascinating.
16.) 13 Jul 2025 08:56:18
Fichajes actually translates as Signings TBH. They may well spout mierda though….
17.) 13 Jul 2025 09:42:02
Konate has only a year left on his contract tho. His value isn’t going to be top dollar.
18.) 13 Jul 2025 10:19:19
How about a straight swap with Rodrygo?
19.) 13 Jul 2025 10:27:08
I've checked this one out. Fichajes have posted 43 rumours about LFC transfers since 2006. 2 of them have been correct.
20.) 13 Jul 2025 10:39:23
He won’t be first choice at RM.
21.) 13 Jul 2025 11:44:20
Never been a fan of Konate as VVD protected him
Lets get rid and get Marc Guheii in he wants LFZC.
22.) 13 Jul 2025 11:44:47
Rodrygo is bang average lads.
Stop trying to swap amazing player for bang average ones because transfers excite you.
He’s for sale because he’s not good enough for a team we are better than.
23.) 13 Jul 2025 13:00:11
From what I’ve seen of Rodrygo I don’t think he is anything special but all the time at real he has played on the wrong side of the pitch so if he comes to us it would not surprise me if he turns out better than I thought. I wonder how Salah would perform on the left all the time I no he would not score the amount of goals from that side.
12 Jul 2025 17:28:01
Newcastle are known to be 'keen' on striker Hugo Ekitike, also of interest to Liverpool, and now a fresh report states Eddie Howe's side are "hoping to finally" land the Frenchman.
1.) 12 Jul 2025 18:39:43
Hard to see Newcastle playing both Isak and Ekitike. and you don't buy a 100m player to be understudy or backup with Newcastle PSR-situation.
What do Eds reckon? Or guys like Carra, Thefields, Akira, RedNotice97 etc.
2.) 12 Jul 2025 19:29:21
I agree can't see him warming the bench while Isak gets a lot of the games, unless they plan to play with two centre forwards.
I would expect him to be Isak replacement.
3.) 12 Jul 2025 22:18:45
I’m choosing to believe NUFC has told Isak he can leave once they’ve sorted his replacement.
4.) 13 Jul 2025 06:02:25
seems nothing has really changed with the Isak situation then.
he, apparently, would prefer a move to us
we want him
Newcastle don't need to sell him this window
to facilitate a move, Isak could hand in a transfer request, which won't happen. Or, Newcastle would seek a replacement this window.
11 Jul 2025 13:41:49
Darwin Nunez transfer talks "ongoing" - Italian source updates on €60m offer.
1.) 11 Jul 2025 13:52:55
If we get to around 60 million £ we should settle on that.
2.) 11 Jul 2025 14:14:56
If true, I think that is more than a good price considering his goal return here. But I want to ask, what do the eds nd posters think of Nicholas Jackson? I know he's still raw but has Prem league experience and might have a point to prove after what happened at Chelsea. Plus, he will be cheaper to Ekitike.
3.) 11 Jul 2025 14:33:08
I would rather stick with Nunez than go with Jackson personally. I still feel there might be another punt at Martinez from Inter on the cards.
4.) 11 Jul 2025 14:38:40
Ugbes, so buy a Chelsea flop? I could argue Darwin has Prem experience too.
5.) 11 Jul 2025 14:44:02
What is it 3 goals this calendar year? take the €60m and run. Darwins turning into the new Nat Phillips with what people on here think we can get for him.
6.) 11 Jul 2025 15:03:39
Florian like him or not he has value and just because he hasn't worked at LFC does not mean he won't in Italy or Spain etc.
Ask Forlan.
7.) 11 Jul 2025 15:14:09
Chelsea flop?
Wasn't Salah regarded as a Chelsea flop?
8.) 11 Jul 2025 15:17:53
Leave Chelsea flops to Arsenal.
If Isak is a no go and Ekitike not worth the risk, Oshimen almost gone and Matinez no noise at all, are we running out of options?
9.) 11 Jul 2025 15:24:26
I think Goncalo Ramos increasingly looks like the most sensible option available on the market.
10.) 11 Jul 2025 15:25:44
This is almost as bad as those pining for Gordon.
11.) 11 Jul 2025 15:25:51
The price has always been £51m or €60m which was reported in Italian papers for the last few weeks. Napoli know that price so pay it or move on.
12.) 11 Jul 2025 15:39:22
Ben segir and a leftfield, young, cheap option whilst we wait for the apt player to become available or emerge?
13.) 11 Jul 2025 15:47:10
@florian Stats can say whatever you want them to say. I could point out that he has scored in every PL game he has started this calendar year.
He was also given less than half an hour on every other PL appearance this calendar year apart from 1 (where he was given a mind-blowing 32 minutes) .
He didn't score many but he also wasn't given a lot of prime opportunities to do so.
14.) 11 Jul 2025 15:47:31
The guys at the club could blindside us again, they have done it before.
Nick Waltemade for example, expected to end up at bayern but you never know, they might surprise us.
15.) 11 Jul 2025 16:22:53
Slot knows what he wants and it's not Darwin. I've a feeling that Isak will come but Darwin's deal to Napoli needs sorting asap.
16.) 11 Jul 2025 16:29:52
I agree gancalo ramos would be a good signing and still young enough to improve! Not sure about LW is rodrygo the answer not sure if it’s clickbait but apparently he has issues with his attitude in training? Wonder if any of the Ed’s know anything about this?
17.) 11 Jul 2025 16:46:25
It is not slot that does not rate nunez. If it were on slot nunez would actually stay.
Slot is not very deeply involved with transfers. He wanted a attacker and defenders and same have been provided.
18.) 11 Jul 2025 17:01:50
Nicholas Jackson just isn’t very good. Plus he has discipline issues on the pitch and having a player prone to red cards is never good. I’m also loathe to waste money on Chelsea dross and give them money to spend. He has Everton on loan written all over him.
19.) 11 Jul 2025 17:13:39
Also, I think either of Ramos or Retigui would be good signings. And Edwards type signing at that.
20.) 11 Jul 2025 17:17:02
I think Jackson goes to one of Chelsea’s dumping ground clubs. West Ham or Arsenal.
21.) 11 Jul 2025 17:37:06
Won’t be Retegui as he has now gone to Al Qadsiah.
22.) 11 Jul 2025 18:35:21
Akira, why would Slot want him to stay? He had plenty of opportunities to play him last season and it was clear to see that he didn’t want him in the side. Same with Elliot, who is also expected to be sold. Same with with Quansah.
23.) 12 Jul 2025 00:01:22
@Flah, people’s long term whatdya-call-it is pretty thingy.
@Akira, next time you’re chatting with Arne can you tell him that I asked why he doesn’t play Nunez if he wants to keep him so much. Just drop me a quick line when Arne let's you know.
24.) 12 Jul 2025 00:58:40
Arne-Geddon, just seen that. He’s written his career off at 26. Very poor.
25.) 12 Jul 2025 05:04:13
I'm completely shocked Retegui has gone to Saudi. He was top of my list below Alvarez and Isak.
Totally crazy what he's done.
26.) 12 Jul 2025 08:14:52
Retegui has Nevesed his career.
27.) 12 Jul 2025 10:44:53
Spot on Shipley, Nunez only played more than 32 minutes once in 2025 against Southampton and he scored. He played 68 minutes that day.
I’m ok with criticising a player if he deserves it but to call out a player for not scoring when he’s barely played more than 25 minutes each game is extremely disingenuous.
11 Jul 2025 11:28:40
A fifth signing could also be on his way to the Santiago Bernabeu, if Fichajes is to be believed.
The Spanish news outlet has reported that Madrid are planning to make a €100million (£86.3m, $116.8m) bid for Liverpool midfielder Mac Allister.
The headline in the report has noted that new Madrid manager 'Xabi Alonso demands' the signing of Mac Allister following Los Blancos' 4-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the semi-finals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.
1.) 11 Jul 2025 12:00:29
I remember the great late ed002 suggesting that perhaps real could look to AM this summer. Question is would you sell at those kind of numbers? Personally yes.
2.) 11 Jul 2025 12:04:11
I know this is a rumour that keeps on appearing but from what Maca has said in interviews he really likes England and the weather (prefers cold) which is a bit of a difference with a lot of south American players who understandably yearn for the similar culture and language in Spain.
He also unlike a lot of other players has not explicitly stated that his dream is to play for Madrid or Barcelona and by all acounts from me just watching him and listening to him in interviews it seems like liverpool is somewhat his 'dream destination' so was Trents for a large part of his life so things obviously change but I would be very surprised if macalaster left anytime soon.
3.) 11 Jul 2025 12:13:38
Anyone would think Real Madrid just got embarrassed 4-0 in a semi-final, being completely outplayed.
Yesterday it was about Konate. Today its about Macca.
I hope we meet them in the CL again this season.
4.) 11 Jul 2025 12:27:47
No thanks. Real are brutal at the moment, let's keep them that way.
5.) 11 Jul 2025 12:33:28
One look at the ‘source’ of this should tell you everything you need to know really.
6.) 11 Jul 2025 12:37:26
I wouldn’t sell that lot the Ebola virus never mind our best midfielder. And £86m for a world class title and World Cup winning midfielder? GTFOOH.
7.) 11 Jul 2025 12:41:49
The only sale I would sanction to Madrid would be for a used condom. I don't care how much they offer, I wouldn't want to do business with them.
8.) 11 Jul 2025 13:00:09
I seem to remember that it was expressed that Mac Would go to RM after a couple of seasons, I read (believe on here) that RM was to be his destination eventually.
9.) 11 Jul 2025 13:15:40
Yeah nah.
If Enzo and Caicedo are worth £100m+ then RM can have Macca for £200m.
10.) 11 Jul 2025 13:38:14
What Alonso ‘demands’ and what he gets are two different matters!
No way should we even consider letting Macca go.
11.) 11 Jul 2025 14:17:57
Under no circumstances should we let him go for anything less than 150m. But if it's to madrid, nothing less than 300m.
12.) 11 Jul 2025 14:19:00
Table Caicedo's fee and it's a deal for me. Although, I have to say I'm begining to get a little worried about too much changes in the first team but again, Slot won the league in his first season so.
13.) 11 Jul 2025 14:54:51
we are crazy if we let Maca go. Best CM of Argentina and premier league. We should be thinking in how to extend his contract.
14.) 11 Jul 2025 15:42:18
Hatred for RM is clouding the judgement.
If they really come after him, it will be very difficult to keep hold like Couts. If they offer top drawer, why not? No one is untouchable.
We shuold be able to get better replacements at a lower fee.
15.) 11 Jul 2025 16:00:08
You only need read the 'Alonso demands' bit to work out that this article is tosh. Real may well covet Alexis Mac, but Alonso is in no postion to demand such a purchase. He doesn't seem like that kind of bloke anyway. Doubt Florentino Perez would be terribly receptive if he was.
16.) 11 Jul 2025 16:45:21
Hey Vango, I think you may have worked out that it's bull! In other BREAKING NEWS anyone could go anywhere right now.
17.) 11 Jul 2025 16:50:56
I know Macca is a class act but 100m euro makes no sense. Why are they apparently only trying to buy one leg? He’d fall over. It would make more sense to pay 200m for both legs. Real Madrid can FO!
18.) 11 Jul 2025 16:51:12
Not a chance our best midfielder last seasons and only behind Salah and Virgil for our player of the Season. Scored some really good and important goals.
19.) 11 Jul 2025 19:05:38
How long has Mac left on his contract?
20.) 11 Jul 2025 19:29:28
Contract expires end of June 2028.
21.) 12 Jul 2025 00:02:09
Sounds like recycled news from about 2 years ago.
22.) 12 Jul 2025 05:02:41
@SamiKewell, Macca is untouchable mate.
If you asked me at the end of last season I would've said every player in our team is replaceable except for Salah, VVD, Ali, Macca and potentially Grav (he became indispensable and not many good CDMs available) .
Macca is one of the best versatile CMs in the world right now in my opinion and that's coupled by his attitude. He seems like a super humble guy, loved by his team mates and staff, and not the typical South American type always with an eye on RM or Barça.
Also if there are "better replacements at a lower fee" then why wouldn't RM go for one of them instead of Macca?
There is zero chance he's being sold. We're not selling our world-class players.
23.) 12 Jul 2025 08:38:15

11 Jul 2025 06:52:40
[Ben Jacobs] Understand Liverpool have refused to engage with Bayern over Luis Diaz. Liverpool have been unequivocal in their not-for-sale stance and rebuffed all advances to date.
1.) 11 Jul 2025 09:11:45
So much conflicting reports wirh this one. It’s interesting. I imagine we we’ll sell him to fund business, but would probably rather we keep him due to proven quality, experience and knowing the system.
More importantly, he can play upfront.
All the noise recently is that he stays and Liverpool are not selling.
2.) 11 Jul 2025 11:20:23
I'll be annoyed if Diaz leaves because he feels undervalued. Obviously we can't be privee to what has happened in the backroom and other influences and if he wants to leave for reasons other than salary that's fair enough on his part. but, on the pitch Diaz is a breath of fresh air, busy, challenging, aggressive. If this is all about comparative salary and begin valued. Pay the chap his £120k a week and give him a 2 or 3 year extension. Surely that's just commonsense and financially efficient?
3.) 11 Jul 2025 11:25:37
Danns has a lot to prove, least not that he is not injury prone. He can't even be relied on to be 6th choice until he's had a good loan.
4.) 11 Jul 2025 11:29:26
Diaz has been reported by Paul Gorst to be on 140k a week, not the 55k going around online. This isn't the issue.

Maybe we were a bit hasty with Joao Pedro.
1.) 09 Jul 2025 00:47:07
Pedro was good in flashes with Brighton as well but he went missing more often than not. He had a good start with Chelsea but he'd need to perform at that level consistently before we judge him positively.
2.) 09 Jul 2025 00:57:34
2 goals against Fluminense doesn't make him world lass all of a sudden.
Gotta judge him on his EPL form and personal shenanigans.
3.) 09 Jul 2025 01:22:24
Nah we're good Vango.
4.) 09 Jul 2025 02:58:57
It's not like he's a crap player, he is in fact a very good player, but he's an orchestrator, a creator and a facilitator and not a goalscorer. He offers no box threat, doesn't run in behind, is not an aerial threat despite being tall, but if you want someone to progress the ball, carry from deep and generate chances near the opposition area (even if he doesn't tend to create the actual assist), he is excellent.
5.) 09 Jul 2025 06:32:37
More than pedro id be a little vary of chelsea at the moment. They are finally playing some good football and I think players have now bought into maresca style. I think they will be very good next season.
I think city will have another extraordinary blowout next season.
6.) 09 Jul 2025 06:56:35
I remember thinking that about Martial when he scored against us
:/.
7.) 09 Jul 2025 06:58:19
Chelsea for me still need an upgrade for Sanchez, all in all it should be a very competitive league this season.
8.) 09 Jul 2025 08:21:34
Don't be worrying about Pedro. Darwin scored 2 against City in the charity shield.
9.) 09 Jul 2025 08:39:50
Need an upgrade of their whole backline.
10.) 09 Jul 2025 09:19:04
Is Darwin suddenly a donkey now? Why do so many people feel the need to throw a jab at him in threads that have nothing to do with him? Am I the only one who thinks he is a good player, just not for us?
11.) 09 Jul 2025 10:57:42
Patrik, Darwin could still be a good player for us if the manager puts his faith in him but it looks like Slot doesn’t fancy him.
I see so many people saying that Elliott needs a run of games and he could come good. Personally I’d be far more confident of Nunez coming good with a run of games than Elliott.
Nunez has all of the physical attributes to be an absolute monster. Elliott is too weak physically and has no pace.
Darwin hasn’t been the player we expected but most of it is psychological. If he feels valued and is played consistently regardless of his misses he might actually start to calm down a bit.
I’m ok with us replacing him if that’s what Slot wants to do but he does seem to be judged more harshly than any other player in the squad.
12.) 09 Jul 2025 11:38:53
The difference between Elliott and Darwin is attitude and a little something between the ears. You can be as skillful and athletic as you want but without the other two then it’s pointless.
13.) 09 Jul 2025 12:25:56
"Darwin hasn’t been the player we expected but most of it is psychological. If he feels valued and is played consistently regardless of his misses he might actually start to calm down a bit. "
Fully agree, @Robboslostlegs. I think he'll bang in a team where he (and ONLY him) is the focal point of the attack as that is the way it was at Benfica and with Uruguguay. And of course, IF he sorts his head out psychologically. And ability wise, he is by NO means a donkey, IMO.
As for Elliott, I just think he does not fit the way Slot wants to play with his skill set. I do not think he has attitude issues and I actually think that he is a very good player who was brilliant under Klopp. It's just a thing of one manager fancying you and another well, who doesn't. Just my take.
24 Jun 2025 20:43:04
(Dave Powell) - Liverpool could spend another £200m in the market this summer and still be PSR compliant. But the game isn't to see how much they can spend, the thesis remains that spending money wisely is the most important thing.
1.) 24 Jun 2025 22:23:38
Fully agree, Vango. Because you can, doesn't necessarily mean you should.
2.) 24 Jun 2025 22:31:47
See Manchester United for details. Spending because you can doesn’t always work.
3.) 24 Jun 2025 22:50:29
Or in one or two cases (cough Chel, cough ski) spending vast amounts of money you don’t have doesn’t work either) .
I hear they are both still growing and the club has high hopes (?) that they will eventually reach their ceiling (?) at six feet four and half an inch. I believe that only very tall people can be centre backs for the upcoming season.

Vango - Take away is you like Klopp way more than Slot.
You are attempting to take away credit from players and donate to the manager.
Nice try.
2.) 21 Jun 2025 10:30:25
I think I know what you’re trying to say Vango and I agree that Klopp is a great manager. However you could argue that Slot made players like Grav and Gakpo even better than Klopp could.
In essence though your post says if you have better players you get better results which is pretty self explanatory.
20 Jun 2025 07:56:14
Vango has written an article entitled, Jurgen Klopp Covered Players' Flaws At Liverpool FC
1.) 20 Jun 2025 08:45:18
Interesting take Vango. Klopp really was incredible in getting the best out of his resources. Slot just seems more of a professional, I don't know if that's the correct word though. Like Slot looks like someone who has high standards for himself and for everyone else. There's no sugarcoating, and if you are not good enough, he will cut you loose quickly. If you are a top student, Slot would make you incredible. Klopp on the other hand, is the guy who would take the weakest kid in class and still make them perform well beyond their capabilities, but yeah after a point there's a talent divide that you can't bridge.
2.) 20 Jun 2025 09:28:37
Great read Vango, and I agree with what you say.
Slot does seem much more professional - the professor after the passion - as thekoparmy says.
The key for Slot, which we are seeing in recruitment now, is intelligence. Slot wants the players to be able to think for themselves, to be able to respond to in-game situations with thought and problem solving.
I'm loving it! Should make for a great 25-26 and beyond if we can get the recruitment right - so far so good!
3.) 20 Jun 2025 09:52:24
Thekoparmy, Klopp doesn't just dump players who many may think can't do the job. Klopp is so charismatic that he inspires players to be the best they can be despite what many think of their ability and that is a huge weapon that many ignore.
Both he and Slot have very high standards for themselves but go about it a diff. way which is quite refreshing and that is what makes them successful in diff. ways.
In addition, Klopp has shown that he can not only take the weaker student and make him outperform his perceived capabilities. He has shown that he can take the weaker kid and make him top of his class, as well IMO with examples we can point to. In the end, they are both great in their own way and Im happy they both had the chance to be successful with us.

The Frimpong, Wirtz and Kerkez deals are not dependent on sales. There is plenty of headroom coming off a 700m season, especially when next season should be a 750m season. Further sales means more buys.

??? I love it when we get into in-depth discussions about finances and sustainable financial planning.

WDW I'm still chuckling about your comment on Daveys post about it being a family forum
Due to the "edging" ?.

West ham interested in Elliott and Morton, which should bring in 60m .

Fede is worth 20m, he's well rested and has had a years excellent coaching, plus experience of winning a title.
Italian clubs are a joke, they want to pay peanuts but sell high.

Come on Saudi's get your wedge out and pay up. You just know they are waiting until the end of the window to try and disrupt our plans, to make it easier for Arab owned clubs.

He also follows Rea, Arsenal etc.

Some people really don't read an absorb what's going on (Shughes created a parody account) before commenting.

ALL depends on where Wirtz plays, i suppose.

McConnell looks ready to me, as does Baj, at least to be rotation players in the squad. let's see how they perform in pre-season.

We all need to get used to the Bosman ruling, its been around long enough.
Ibou is a special player on his day and may not be easy to replace, IF he really is leaving, but what can we do?
We need that size, heading and dual winning ability, as well as the mobility - Mark G has most of that bar the heading part, but are we not buying the young CB from morocco also?
Ibous brother denied the rumours in a tweet, and currently, that's all we have - rumours. Perhaps a better offer will get him signed up.

MK Scouser - Exactly, anyone thinking that Dom S will be dropped to accomodate Wirtz does not understand that our game is built on Dom S heart and lungs, rather than his goal scoring and hollywood passing.
Sure he 'could' score more, but its not essential to our game.
Wirtz is going to be one of the front 3 or part of a 4 man MF, in effect.
