Liverpool rejects the chance to sign Brighton star

 


Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool have rejected the opportunity to sign Brighton forward Leandro Trossard. The Belgian international has been sensational for Brighton this season, earning himself a call-up to the World Cup in Qatar. 

With Trossard looking to make a step up in his career and with his contract set to end this season, he will likely be on the move. His agent has been offering him to multiple clubs in England, including Liverpool.

The decision to not go ahead with Trossard is likely due to their recent signing of Cody Gakpo during the January transfer window and the focus on integrating him into the team.

 Liverpool’s management probably has a plan for the type of players they want to bring in, and Trossard did not fit that plan. Liverpool is in the market for midfielders and adding another attacking talent is surely not on the cards.

Despite Liverpool not showing interest in Trossard, it is likely that he will find a new club soon. Trossard is a talented player who has shown that he can perform at the highest level, and it would not be a surprise if other clubs in England or elsewhere expressed their interest in signing him.

Speaking on the Last Word on Spurs podcast, football journalist Ben Jacobs mentioned, “The first thing to say with Trossard is that he wants a move away, no specific preference, and his agent has been working extremely hard to fuel interest. 

He went to Tottenham, he went to Chelsea, he went to Liverpool, he went to Manchester United, and he went to Newcastle United. Liverpool and Manchester United dismissed it, even as I understand it got a little bit irritated by how much on the agent’s side was being leaked about interest in his client.”

Liverpool is currently in the market for a midfielder and has been linked to Jude Bellingham, Moises Caicedo, Sofyan Amrabat amongst other.

Liverpool set to make official move for 24-year-old midfielder valued at£39.8m

  Liverpool have reportedly reignited their interest in Matheus Nunes and are weighing up a £44m swoop for the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder. The Portugal international was heavily linked with a move to Anfield during the summer transfer window, but Jurgen Klopp’s side decided against spending big on a new lynchpin. Still determined to test himself in the Premier League, Nunes became the latest Portuguese player to arrive at Wolves, who paid €45m (£39.8m) to bring the 24-year-old to the club from Sporting Lisbon. Nunes has one assist to show from 14 Premier League games for Julen Lopetegui’s side, and he is under contract at Molineux until 2027 with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. However, Nunes’s efforts have not been able to prevent Wolves’ slide down the table, with Lopetegui’s men sat 19th in the rankings after taking just 13 points from 17 games. Should Wolves drop back down to the Championship, Nunes would not be e...

(Video) Thiago’s three brilliant defensive challenges that demonstrate his Anfield dominance

  Thiago Alcantara had yet another brilliant display for Liverpool and it wasn’t just his usual passing and attacking prowess that was on show but his tackling and defensive abilities too. One video has been created to show three instances when our No.6 won the ball back inside his own half and they were all done with the usual style and class we are used to seeing from the Spain international. It wasn’t the best display from Jurgen Klopp’s squad but the 31-year-old could leave the pitch with his head held high, after helping the Reds secure all three points. Let’s hope his form continues and that we can extend our run of four successive victories in the Premier League. He is immense pic.twitter.com/KdobOK8Feh — - (@PassLikeThiago) December 31, 2022

Bayern Munich eyeing up another Liverpool star – Likely far cheaper than Mané deal

Image
 With a few clubs, including Manchester United, reportedly interested in Eric Choupo-Moting, currently at Bayern Munich, the Bavarian side are preparing for the worst. Having already lost Robert Lewandowski in the summer, the Bundesliga giants have had to rely on the Cameroon international more often than not, but his contract expires in the summer. This has made him attractive for many clubs in January, which is why Bayern Munich are looking at Liverpool for a potential replacement. This is because the Reds have a player in a similar situation as Choupo-Moting in Roberto Firmino, whose contract at Anfield expires in the summer. There have been reports the Brazilian wouldn’t mind extending at Liverpool, but he will take his time to evaluate what his future can bring him. Media Foot in France suggest that could include a transfer back to Germany, where he initially made a name for himself at Hoffenheim. The outlet explain the Liverpool forward ‘is among the profiles studied’ by...
