Liverpool will not sell Salah under any circumstances
At the heart of continued speculation surrounding a potential Deadline Day move to Saudi Arabia over the summer, all Liverpool fans have been desperate to receive some clarity over Salah’s long-term future at Anfield. With Jurgen Klopp’s side coming flying out of the traps since opening up the 2023/24 campaign and making a string of improvements since returning from the summer break, some have tipped Liverpool as a genuine title contender this time around. Watching Salah play a crucial role in a Liverpool squad that currently sit just three points adrift of top spot in the Premier League standings, the 31-year-old has already registered eight goals in his first 10 top-flight appearances. While it might have been suggested since the end of the summer transfer window that Saudi Arabia are planning another blockbuster swoop for Liverpool’s record-breaking talisman, reports this week have suggested that Klopp’s side are unwilling to accept any offer.Ballon d’Or News: Manchester City & Pep Guardiola make major Ballon d’Or history🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Liverpool eager for Thiago’s return
Although Liverpool’s new-look midfield might have continued to shine since being assembled over the summer, Klopp’s side have certainly missed the presence of one of their key first-team stars. While Thiago Alacantara might be seen as one of the key leaders in Klopp’s dressing room, the former Champions League winner is yet to make a single appearance this season and is still dealing with a long-term hip injury. Speaking ahead of Wednesday’s EFL Cup trip to relegation scrappers Bournemouth, assistant coach Pep Lijnders has expressed how eager he is to see the 32-year-old make a timely return.“We miss Thiago. I miss him a lot. Can you imagine our midfield, our new players and then Thiago Alcantara in the middle as well, guiding everyone? We hope to get him back soon.”
With some around Anfield starting to believe that Liverpool can mount a genuine Premier League title charge this season, the Reds will be desperate to have Thiago back firing on all cylinders sooner rather than later.“We miss him a lot!” 💯
