Real Madrid eyeing surprise transfer move for Manchester City youngster

Real Madrid are reportedly interested in Manchester City’s highly-rated young full-back Yan Couto as a transfer target for the summer.

The 21-year-old has not yet featured in a competitive game for Man City, but has impressed on loan at one of their affiliate clubs Girona this season, with his form in La Liga clearly showing Madrid that he could perhaps be a good option to do a job for them.

According to Spanish outlet Marca, as translated by Sport Witness, Real have been impressed by Couto and now feel he could be a good option to sign as someone to compete with Dani Carvajal for a place at right-back.

City fans will no doubt be keeping an eye on this as Couto could end up being someone worth recalling and introducing into their first-team setup before too long.

Of course, there’s plenty of competition for places at the Etihad Stadium, but if a club like Real Madrid are showing an interest, it surely gives Pep Guardiola something to think about.

Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick was presented with the Bart Starr Award at the annual Super Bowl Breakfast on Saturday in Las Vegas.

Fitzpatrick became the first Alabama alumnus to win the award named for the former Crimson Tide quarterback.

The Bart Starr Award has been presented annually by Athletes in Action since 1989 to “the NFL player who best exemplifies outstanding character and leadership in the home, on the field and in the community.”

A two-time consensus All-American at Alabama and a three-time All-Pro in the NFL, Fitzpatrick had a trying season in 2023 because of injuries. He missed seven games, which Fitzpatrick said gave him “a lot of time to do a lot of reflecting.”

“I remember asking myself questions,” Fitzpatrick said in accepting the award, Teresa Varley reported for the Steelers’ official website. “I’m trying to be a better man. I’m trying to be a good man. And I remember asking myself the question: What is a good man? And I was dwelling on it for weeks. I pride myself on being a good man. But really what is that? I’m sitting in my prayer time, my quiet time, God started speaking to me, telling me a good man is a dead man. And at first I heard that and I was like, I don’t really know what that means. I want to live. But then he revealed it to me.

“One of the first requirements that Jesus gave his disciples was to take up his cross and to follow him. A lot of us think of the cross as gold crosses they wear on their neck or may have a tattoo. But the cross was an instrument of torture. It was an instrument of humiliation. It was an instrument for an evil cause, but what Jesus did when he got on the cross was turn it into a beautiful thing. The fact that he died on that cross and made the cross a beautiful thing is what God was saying to me. A good man is a dead man. A good man is a man who is willing to pick up his cross and follow Jesus. A good man is a man who’s willing to get up on that cross daily, sometimes multiple times throughout the day, pin his flesh to it and continue to follow Christ.”

READ TERESA VARLEY’S “FITZPATRICK PRESENTED WITH BART STARR AWARD”

Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin attended the event to present the award to Fitzpatrick.

“What a blessing and honor to be here,” Tomlin said, “particularly because of that young man sitting before me. I am never surprised by God’s greater plan. I’m just always ready to receive it. …

“It’s not my style to be at the Super Bowl, site to be quite honest with you, unless I’m working. I’m leaving here and going directly to the airport. This man, Minkah Fitzpatrick, is so deserving of this recognition, I would not miss this. I read the description of what this award embodies — a man of high character, values, integrity and leadership on and off the field. And it could have just said: Minkah Fitzpatrick.”

Starr was a Sidney Lanier High School and Alabama quarterback who had a Pro Football Hall of Fame career with Green Bay. Starr played for the Packers from 1956 through 1971 and was Green Bay’s coach from 1975 through 1983.

With coach Vince Lombardi, Starr led the Packers to five NFL championships, including victories in the first two Super Bowls. He won the NFL’s Most Valuable Player Award in 1966 and was the MVP of the first two Super Bowls. Starr joined Johnny Unitas and Sonny Jurgensen as the quarterbacks on the NFL’s All-1960s team and entered the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1977 in his first year of eligibility.

Starr died at age 85 on May 26, 2019, in Birmingham.

Ex-Everton CEO Wyness: Liverpool value set to ‘go through the roof’
Premier League ‘salary cap’ could supercharge revenues, says former Everton CEO

Former Everton chief Keith Wyness has claimed a “salary cap” could catapult the values of clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal “through the roof” and get better investment into the Premier League.

Speaking on the new edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, the 66-year-old – who served as CEO at Goodison Park between 2004 and 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs – suggested increasing American ownership in England could see a cap on wages become reality.

According to Capology, Premier League clubs are paying in excess of £1.8billion per year in wages to their players – down more than £200million on the 2022-23 campaign.

The same source claims Man City star midfielder Kevin De Bruyne brings home the highest base wage – £400,000-a-week.

Many North American sports leagues have a salary cap in place, including the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB.

Previous reports have claimed the Premier League are considering introducing a hard cap which would restrict clubs to spending 70% of their turnover on wages and transfer fees.

Asked about how this would affect clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal, which are run on a self-sustainable basis, Wyness told Football Insider‘s Inside Track podcast: “The NFL franchises went through the roof in terms of valuations when there was a salary cap introduced.

“We’ve always talked about American owners in the Premier League having enough votes, potentially, to vote something like that through.

“Wages are the cost which runs away.

“It isn’t so much the transfer spending, it’s the wages and the salaries.

Liverpool star whose value’s dropped 80% has been even worse than Keita
BY
ANGUS SINCLAIR
PUBLISHED 2 HOURS AGO
Jurgen Klopp has hit the mark so many times but this “staggering” star has left much to be desired.

Over time, Liverpool supporters have come to trust Jurgen Klopp’s judgement in the transfer market, with the illustrious Premier League outfit often delving down a shrewder road than their rivals when improving the squad.

While staple members Alisson Becker and Virgil van Dijk were signed for lofty figures, deals for iconic Klopp stars such as Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Andy Robertson and Joel Matip – certainly not an exhaustive list – were welcomed for bargain sums in today’s jaw-dropping landscape.

The remarkable accuracy in the transfer market has left certain rivals rueing their own lack of discernment and has been the foundation of the Reds’ success under Klopp’s wing.

But it hasn’t always gone well and there are a few deals littered throughout the German’s tenure that are best left in distant memory.

Indeed, three-and-a-half years ago Liverpool ventured to sign Thiago Alcantara, long considered one of Europe’s superlative centre-midfielders, though the Spain international’s time on Merseyside has been marred by an incredible series of injury problems.

Liverpool’s signing of Thiago Alcantara
It was 2020 and Liverpool were preparing for the eventuality of Gini Wijnaldum’s sale; the Dutchman has one year remaining on his current contract and renewal looked unlikely. A replacement was needed.

Wijnaldum would indeed move to Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer one year later but FSG moved to sign Thiago from Bayern Munich and wrapped up a deal for a fee rising to £25m.

Long regarded as a “magnificent” footballer with “outstanding technique” – as was once said by Phillip Lahm – the La Masia youth graduate had won honours in abundance throughout a glittering career, notably gleaning the Champions League with both Bayern and Barcelona, and his acquisition looked a no-brainer for a heavy metal Liverpool side transitioning toward a style with a tad more control and composure.

The one little concern was an unflattering injury record, but then there was hope that that wouldn’t present too large a quandary.

Thiago Alcantara’s Liverpool career so far
Thiago has completed 98 appearances for Liverpool and played a big role as Klopp chased a quadruple in 2021/22 – unsuccessfully, sure, but not without triumph in the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.

The £200k-per-week star enjoyed success that year and actually started 17 Premier League matches during that season, completing 89% of his passes and averaging 1.2 key passes, 1.9 tackles and 4.5 successful duels per fixture, as per Sofascore.

He was important last season but fell to injury in the new year and made his final Premier League start against Wolverhampton Wanderers at the beginning of February.

Yet to feature from the outset since Thiago made his anticipated return off the bench during Liverpool’s recent defeat against title rivals Arsenal, but got fans groaning after bewildering news that he had suffered a hamstring issue.

These incessant problems have caused the player’s transfer value to plummet, with Football Transfers recording Thiago’s current value at just £4m, which marks an 80% decrease – such has been the enormity of his decline.

Once praised for his “staggering” talents by pundit and former Liverpool man Michael Owen, Thiago has enjoyed some fine moments but all too often has watched on in shadowed obscurity as his confreres fight for honours.

He’s not been the most expensive addition during Klopp’s reign and while he carries the patina of a wisened and cultured veteran, he has been unable to strut his stuff with the slightest bit of regularity, and it remains to be seen if Liverpool will get more than a sliver out of his services before the end of the campaign.

Worse than Naby Keita
They say that availability is the best ability, and while this is worn-out phrasing it certainly speaks a truth regarding Thiago’s Liverpool career.

Endowed with such scintillating technical ability and tactical intelligence that allows him to control matches with remarkable ease, Thiago is comfortably one of the best players to perform under Klopp at Liverpool, when going off raw quality alone.

However, raw quality is only one of many important facets down a winding path toward success and the 32-year-old’s startling inability to maintain fitness has ravaged any hopes of etching his name into Premier League lore for his feats on the pitch.

This is not the first time Reds supporters have been led to get excited by a high-profile addition to the midfield, with Naby Keita’s £53m acquisition back in 2018 supposed to be a game-changing move during Liverpool’s primitive face under Klopp, who dubbed the Guinean “the complete midfielder.”

In a similar decline, Keita managed only stuttering glimpses of the quality that prompted Klopp to grant such an expensive outlay, scoring 11 goals and supplying seven assists across 129 fixtures in all competitions for the Anfield side but, given that he completed five campaigns in England, this averages out to a measly 26 appearances per term.

To put that in perspective, Mohamed Salah averaged 51 games per season during the same period.

Like Thiago, Keita is among Europe’s most naturally talented midfielders and has even been hailed for his “world-class” attributes by Virgil van Dijk in the past, but given that the former has reaped lucrative rewards across both German and Spanish pitches, it’s hard to feel more aggrieved by Keita’s struggles.

The end date draws ever closer and it’s very hard to imagine a world where Thiago, who turns 33 in two months exactly, pens new terms and has another shot at crafting a successful campaign for himself.

There’s a wistful air surrounding these closing months of Thiago’s Liverpool career and it will very much go down as a transfer that offered some lovely, influential moments but ultimately failed to deliver even a portion of the goods.

Klopp’s sweeping changes to the midfield last summer have allayed any fears that Thiago’s exit might be detrimental but it is a real shame nonetheless. He’s one of the finest footballers around.

FABRIZIO ROMANO: LIVERPOOL’S NEXT BIG THING SIGNS DEAL

Join AI Pro
LIVERPOOL’S BRIGHT FUTURE: KIERAN MORRISON COMMITS TO ANFIELD
In the bustling world of football, where talent is the currency of success, Liverpool FC stand on the brink of securing its wealth for years to come. Kieran Morrison, a gem unearthed within the club’s youth ranks, is poised to pen a new deal, ensuring his future remains at Anfield. This development, brought to light by transfer enthusiast Fabrizio Romano, heralds a significant moment for both the player and the club.

RISING STAR: MORRISON’S JOURNEY
Morrison, a midfielder with an attacking prowess, has been turning heads since his under-18 debut, an impressive feat achieved before his 16th birthday. His journey to Liverpool is a tale of dedication and skill; from his early days developed at Manchester United to his critical role in Liverpool’s academy. Representing Northern Ireland at under-19 level, Morrison’s path mirrors that of Conor Bradley, showcasing the depth of talent hailing from the region.

CHANGE OF HEART
Previously rumoured to be eyeing a move away, Morrison has evidently seen the value in continuing his growth under the tutelage of Liverpool’s coaching staff. A verbal agreement is reportedly in place, with an official announcement on the horizon. This decision marks a pivotal chapter in Morrison’s career, as he cements his place within a club renowned for nurturing young talent into world-class athletes.

IMPACTFUL PERFORMANCES
Morrison’s influence within the youth squad is undeniable. His standout performance against Middlesbrough, where he netted a hat-trick in a 3-1 victory, underlines his potential and ability to step up when the team needs him most. Academy coach Marc Bridge-Wilkinson praises Morrison’s versatility and form, stating, “He has had a nice four or five weeks, including the international break as he did really well with Northern Ireland, so he is in a nice run of form.” Such adaptability and consistency are traits that Liverpool values highly, hinting at a bright future for Morrison at Anfield.

VERSATILE TALENT
Morrison’s capability to play across various positions offers Liverpool a valuable asset. From central roles to both flanks, his flexibility allows the coaching staff to utilise him effectively according to the team’s needs. This versatility, combined with his recent form, suggests that Morrison is finding his footing, poised to make a significant impact on the first team in the near future.

As Liverpool secure Morrison’s commitment, the club not only retain a promising talent but also reinforce their vision for the future. With Morrison at Anfield, the Reds’ legacy of developing and nurturing young talent continues to thrive, promising exciting times ahead for the club and its supporters.

Vincent Kompany felt Burnley were unlucky as they fell to a 3-1 defeat away at Liverpool on Saturday.

Goals from Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez earned all three points for the Reds as Jurgen Klopp’s side reclaimed top spot in the Premier League table from Manchester City – Kompany’s former club – after they had beaten Everton earlier in the day.

The Clarets had a number of chances at Anfield but were unable to add to Dara O’Shea’s initial equaliser on the stroke of half-time. And while pleased with his relegation-threatened team’s performance, Kompany conceded that Liverpool had punished their mistakes.

“I’ve been to this place myself as a player quite a few times, where, in a game, we didn’t have as many chances as we did today,” he said. “The game plan for us is always the same when we go to these types of places.

“You need a little bit of luck on your side. We didn’t have that despite the performance. And you need to put away your chances. And we didn’t do that, despite the performance.

“These teams at this level have the quality to punish your every mistake. It’s a team with a lot of quality. It’s a stadium and crowd with a lot of history and passion for the team. That’s always tough.

“For as much as we came to play our own game, we did really well in that environment and that is something positive to take for sure. It should give us the belief to carry on.

“Liverpool, we’ve played them twice. City, we’ve played them twice. You’ve got to play them all but there’s enough in our performances to believe we can get results

“I’ll take the positives out of the game but I can’t hide the fact that we would have liked to have had the result of course.”
