When it comes to transfers in the Premier League, few have as impressive a track record as the one boasted by Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool in recent years.

The Reds have concluded an array of astute deals under the German’s premiership – which will end in the summer – with the likes of Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson and Sadio Mane all impressing after arriving for relatively modest sums.

And even Klopp’s premium purchases like Virgil van Dijk and Allison signed for £75million and £56m respectively, have managed to live up to the hype and establish themselves as cornerstones of the club’s recent success under the former Borussia Dortmund coach.

Klopp has always had a big say in the comings and goings at Anfield and has rightly received plenty of plaudits for the impressive work in the summer transfer window that has propelled his refreshed team – dubbed Liverpool 2.0 – into title contention in what will be his final campaign.

As well as setting out specific criteria before signing any new players, Klopp revealed back in 2020 that there is an unwritten agreement with all new signings which demands that they give everything – and in turn, Klopp gives them everything he has back.

“When we have this agreement, everything was fine, everything was good, that’s why we talked, that’s why we signed you, but from now on I expect much more,” Klopp previously revealed to Liverpool club media.

“For that, he gets more than he ever got before: more attention, more education, hopefully better training – that’s a clear agreement. If he is not happy with one of these parts, he can come to me and tell me, ‘You told me that, it didn’t happen’.

“If I am not happy with one of the things he agreed, I will go to him and tell him, ‘You said this and that, you didn’t do that – why?’ This is a clear deal, but a handshake deal, not written down.”

The opportunity to work with one of the game’s elite coaches has paid dividends for Liverpool in the market. The likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai were both lured to Anfield in the summer and have already made a significant impact on the pitch.

After ending Liverpool’s agonising 30-year top-flight title drought in 2020, Klopp went agonisingly close to landing an unprecedented quadruple in the 2021/22 campaign.

And after a disappointing season last year, Klopp and Liverpool are back on track to challenge for major honours – he’s clearly holding up his end of the bargain with said transfer agreement.

Liverpool have confirmed Jorg Schmadtke will leave his post as sporting director next month.

Schmadtke took up the role in the summer after the shock exit of Julian Ward, who spent only a year as the much-vaunted Michael Edwards’ successor.

Schmadtke helped the Reds negotiate a busy transfer window, with Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch arriving while Jordan Henderson and Fabinho were both sold to the Saudi Pro League.

The German signed a short-term deal with Liverpool. But with Jurgen Klopp announcing the bombshell news that he will depart from the Anfield hot seat at the end of the season – along with assistant managers Pep Lijnders and Peter Krawietz and elite development coach Vitor Mato. But Schmadtke’s exit will be at the end of the January transfer window.

Fenway Sports Group president Mike Gordon said: “We would like to place on record our gratitude to Jorg for the important role he has played since joining Liverpool last summer.

“He has made a valuable contribution, both in terms of the support he provided to Jürgen Klopp and the assistance and guidance given to our outstanding football operations department.

“As well as departing with our appreciation for his efforts, we would also like to take this opportunity to offer Jorg and his family our very best wishes for the future.”

How the football world have privately reacted to Liverpool’s handling of Jurgen Klopp
Fri 26 January 2024 14:20
James Brooke
Liverpool have been the talk of the footballing world today, after Jurgen Klopp’s big announcement.

The Reds manager of more than eight years is set to call time on his stay on Merseyside, with an end of the season exit now impending.

It was incredible news that not many at all will have seen coming. And according to The Telegraph, Liverpool’s ability to keep it as such as a surprise has gone down well in footballing circles.

They claim that there has been ‘surprise and admiration’ within the football world at how the Reds kept things so quiet with Klopp.

Liverpool’s ability to ‘execute such a smooth announcement’ of news of this magnitude is also said to have won them some fans.

Klopp reportedly informed Reds owners FSG of his intention to leave back in November. Until today, nobody else appears to have been in the know.

Liverpool winning fans
In this day and age of everything in football being known before it happens, we’re not used to receiving such a shock like this.

But, truly, Jurgen’s announcement today will have taken the whole fanbase – and the rest of the world – by complete surprise.

MORE LIVERPOOL STORIES
For anyone who is not connected with Liverpool, perhaps this is a good day. Klopp has become less popular with opposition fans recently for rivals of the club, it no doubt helps their own prospects of toppling the Reds.

But for anyone of a Liverpool persuasion, to get news like that straight out of the blue will have been gut-wrenching.

Had there been some indication that Klopp was about to walk, it would have been easier to deal with. But the boss appeared in-front of the press as normal only yesterday.

The only one inkling that something could be wrong is that the press conference had been slated for a day earlier than usual. As we now know, that was to make way for today’s ‘special’ briefing from Jurgen.

Still, no one could have foreseen that. If you’d suggested it, you’d have been laughed out of the room.

So, yes, you do have to commend the secrecy with which Liverpool and Klopp operated in here. However, a heads up would have been nice. The pain is real.

‘A candidate’… Jim White believes 41-year-old could be next Liverpool manager after Jurgen Klopp
Fri 26 January 2024 11:00
Updated Fri 26 January 2024 11:34
James Brooke
The news that no Liverpool fan wanted to hear has been announced this afternoon.

As per liverpoolfc.com, Jurgen Klopp will step down as Reds manager at the end of the current season. With a contract still to run for two more years, no one saw this coming.

As a result, Liverpool are now going to have to begin the impossible job of finding Klopp’s successor at Anfield.

There are a number of clear candidates, with Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso being the obvious front-runner.

But speaking on TalkSPORT in the wake of the news this morning, presenter Jim White put forward another possible name.

“One might think maybe Pep Lijnders,” suggested the presenter. “With his knowledge of Klopp and his close association with Klopp makes himself a candidate to take over from Klopp.”

Lijnders put forward as Klopp successor
Well this was not the news we were expecting on this Thursday morning. Just how do you digest this?

Klopp’s reasons for leaving appear to be a case of burnout more than anything. It’s a surprise after the manager looked so reenergised ahead of this season. But what can you do.

MORE LIVERPOOL STORIES
The one silver lining is of course that Jurgen has given Liverpool plenty of time to find his successor.

You could imagine that the boss himself may well be involved in the hiring of the man to fill his enormous shoes.

If that is the case, then you can see Klopp putting the case forward for Lijnders. He’s been by his side at Liverpool for years now and knows the club and the players inside out.

The Dutchman even holds press conferences for the Carabao Cup these days and is well versed in the demands of the job.

But you can’t help but feel that the position might be a little too big for Pep. Instead, many supporters’ choice would have to be Alonso. In fact, with the best of respect to Pep, the Spaniard has to be the choice.

In the meantime, the long goodbye for Jurgen is going to be so very emotional. Danke for everything boss, YNWA. Now, there’s a league title to win.

‘I’ve got to say’ – Chris Sutton names the Liverpool player who has proved him wrong this season

‘I’ve got to say’ – Chris Sutton names the Liverpool player who has proved him wrong this season

Chris Sutton has admitted he’s been proved very wrong by a Liverpool player this season after he previously questioned whether the 32-year-old was past his best.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are still challenging on all four fronts this term and one of the main reasons behind the Reds’ solid performances has been the fine form of Virgil Van Dijk.

The Dutchman was handed the armband in the summer following Jordan Henderson’s departure to Saudi Arabia and the central defender has been at his world-class best.

Liverpool have conceded the fewest goals in the Premier League this season (18) and Sutton admits he was wrong to doubt the Netherlands international.

“I’ve got to say, since the injury I wondered whether he could get back to his imperious best as a defender,” said the former Celtic striker on BBC Football Daily (via Rousing The Kop). “At one time, I thought he was the best defender in the world. I just thought maybe he’d lost a yard or whatever. Maybe his confidence had taken a bit of hit and he didn’t feel like he was quite the same player.

“But this season I think he’s got better and better the longer the season has gone on. Of course, he always sort of takes responsibility on his shoulders, but it’s good news for Liverpool.”

It of course took van Dijk some time to recover from the serious knee injury that he sustained a few years ago but he’s now proving why he’s recognised by many as the best defender in the world.

His powerful presence in the backline frightens forwards and it’s no coincidence that Klopp’s side are back to their best at the same time our No. 4 is too.

He’s leading by example this term and he’ll love nothing more than lifting some silverware this term as Liverpool captain.

So far so good but there’s still a long way to go!

Canaries out to end three-decade wait for win over Merseyside giants

9 HOURS AGO
Both form and history are on Liverpool’s side when they host Norwich in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Sunday.

As Premier League leaders and recently-confirmed Carabao Cup finalists, Jurgen Klopp’s side are in stunning form and last tasted defeat domestically in September.

But their unbeaten run over Norwich extends way back to 1994, when Jeremy Goss struck the only goal of a rare Anfield victory for the Canaries.

More recently, David Wagner’s side have won three of their last four matches as they look to reassert themselves in the Championship play-off picture.

This game will come moments after the draw for the FA Cup fifth round, so each team will know their opponents in advance – should they be the one to come out on top.

Date, kick-off time and venue
Liverpool vs Norwich is scheduled for a 2.30pm GMT kick-off on Sunday, January 28, 2024.

The match will take place at Anfield.

Liverpool vs Norwich team news
Andrew Robertson and Dominik Szoboszlai are expected to make the squad after injury absences but Trent Alexander-Arnold is a doubt.

Mohamed Salah, Kostas Tsimikas, Thiago Alcantara and Stefan Bajcetic are all unavailable, along with Wataru Endo who is at the Asian Cup.

Liverpool vs Norwich prediction
Anfield may well be expectant but it will nonetheless remain the fortress that Liverpool have made it into, with Norwich unlikely to be able to keep their supreme attack at bay.

Liverpool to win, 3-0.

Liverpool maintained their challenge on four fronts by reaching the League Cup final with a draw at Fulham on Wednesday evening.

Luis Diaz’s early goal was enough despite a late Issa Diop equaliser as the Reds earned a 1-1 stalemate to progress 3-2 on aggregate and secure a Wembley showdown with Chelsea next month.

Liverpool now turn their attentions to the FA Cup when they entertain Norwich City in the fourth round on Sunday afternoon. And here we look ahead to the changes Jurgen Klopp could make when his team are next in action.

The possible return of a handful of players and the ongoing progress of a group of youngsters have given Klopp a little more room in which to manoeuvre regards team selection. And there will be significant rotation given the Premier League double header against Chelsea and Arsenal later next week.

Alisson Becker will be expected to resume in goal ahead of Caoimhin Kelleher, with Adrian third-choice between the sticks. Trent Alexander-Arnold is among those who could become available, although bench duty is most likely given Conor Bradley’s form since stepping in at right-back.

At left-back, Andy Robertson is fit and could start, giving Joe Gomez a deserved breather. Kostas Tsimikas remains out, but Owen Beck is also a consideration. Ibrahima Konate will be pressing for a recall at centre-back, with Jarell Quansah having featured alongside Virgil van Dijk at Fulham. Joel Matip is out for the season.

Szobsoszlai wait

Dominik Szoboszlai would offer a welcome option on the right of the midfield three should he be deemed fit enough to start after missing the last three weeks with a hamstring complaint. Harvey Elliott impressed in the role at Fulham, with Cody Gakpo having also featured there of late.

Alexis Mac Allister’s minutes are being managed after his return from injury earlier this month, particularly given the other recognised number six alternatives, Wataru Endo and Stefan Bajcetic, remain sidelined through international commitments and injury respectively.

Curtis Jones came off the bench to replace Mac Allister midway through the second half at Craven Cottage, but will be pressing for a start on the left of the midfield three. Ryan Gravenberch played all bar the closing moments in the position despite suffering from a heavy cold, but Thiago Alcantara is still out.

Should Klopp throw a curveball, it may be to hand Bobby Clark only a second senior start after recent cameos from the bench at Arsenal, Bournemouth and Fulham. Fellow youngsters James McConnell and Trey Nyoni were also among the substitutes on Wednesday.

Jota primed

The continued rotation of the attack means Diogo Jota is likely to start against Norwich, either down the centre or on the left flank.

That would leave Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz competing for the other two slots, with all three capable of playing on the left. Nunez and Gakpo can also perform down the middle, while Gakpo and Diaz have both started games on the right of late, along with Elliott.

Mohamed Salah is injured and would in any case otherwise have been on international duty, while Ben Doak remains out. Teenage winger Kaide Gordon is another alternative.

LIVERPOOL’S STRATEGIC INTEREST IN TAKEFUSA KUBO: ANALYSING THE POTENTIAL MOVE
LIVERPOOL EYES TALENTED KUBO FOR A FUTURE TRANSFER
Liverpool’s interest in Real Sociedad winger Takefusa Kubo has been making waves in the football world. As reported by TEAMTALK, the Reds are considering a move for the Japanese international, possibly even eyeing a January deal. Kubo’s impressive performance this season, with six goals from 25 appearances, has significantly raised his market value, according to Transfermarkt.

KUBO’S RISING STAR IN LALIGA
Having been part of both Barcelona and Real Madrid, Kubo is now thriving at Real Sociedad. His current form in LaLiga has not gone unnoticed, with Liverpool reportedly making contact about a potential deal. This proactive approach, even before the January transfer window, indicates Liverpool’s serious intent. However, Kubo’s commitment to Real Sociedad, at least for the remainder of the season, puts a temporary hold on any immediate transfer plans.

At 22, Kubo presents a promising profile, similar to Mohamed Salah, and could become a long-term successor in Klopp’s 4-3-3 system. However, his left-footed right-wing playstyle and his contract until 2027 with Real Sociedad mean Liverpool might have to wait. Additionally, his current participation in the Asian Cup could further delay any transfer discussions.

KUBO’S FUTURE: A HOT TOPIC
The market for Kubo is heating up. Apart from Liverpool, other Premier League clubs, Napoli, and even teams from Saudi Arabia, including Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr, have shown interest. This diverse attention underlines Kubo’s growing reputation in international football. Real Madrid’s first refusal right on their former player adds another layer to the potential transfer saga.

LIVERPOOL’S PURSUIT AMIDST COMPETITION
Liverpool’s pursuit of Kubo, highlighted by Jorge Picon’s assertion of their keen interest, suggests a strategic move to bolster their wide attacking options. A transfer to the Premier League would be a new chapter for Kubo, whose potential is rapidly transitioning into tangible quality, an attribute that would be highly beneficial for Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp has admitted he changed Liverpool’s summer transfer plans after seeing one player in pre-season training.

The Reds completed an £150m midfield overhaul last year, bringing in Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo, and Ryan Gravenberch. But while the former two were signed at the start of the summer and Klopp knew there was a chance of landing the Dutchman long before his actual deadline day switch from Bayern Munich, it was a different story when it came to landing the Japan captain.

Sanctioning the exits of Jordan Henderson and Fabinho following unexpected interest from Saudi Arabia, Liverpool were unexpectedly in the market for an additional midfielder. After facing disappointment when moving for Moises Caicedo, Romeo Lavia, and Andre, they eventually settled on Endo.

However, were it not for such a search, the Reds had intended to switch attention to a new centre-back, with Klopp confirming interest in such a player was on the radar the previous May. It was only after the exits of Henderson and Fabinho that the club’s priority changed.

Klopp has since insisted that he has no intention of signing a new centre-back in January, partly thanks to the breakthrough of Jarell Quansah, despite Joel Matip suffering a season-ending ACL injury. However, such a stance could change in the summer with the Cameroonian out of contract.

And insisting that Liverpool don’t ‘ignore potential issues’ at centre-back when reflecting on their defensive search, he confirmed that the Reds decided to change their transfer plans after seeing Quansah in pre-season.

“I liked him from the first moment I saw him,” Klopp said. “But that means just what the boy offers from a physical point of view when they’re really young, 16/17/18, that’s how long I’ve known him.

“I knew he was a good footballer, which is absolutely helpful, and it’s not rare nowadays but it’s quite special how calm he is on the ball. And then it was all about when was he ready for adult football because, in that position, each challenge is a reality check.

“So you might be the best in your age group but that means nothing for the adult world because you have strong opponents and they know all the dark arts, how to bring yourself in better positions. He’s dealing with that and I didn’t expect that this quick, that’s true.

“But the pre-season was super positive, super positive. We wanted to… so we got asked a lot that we have to sign a new centre-half. And obviously we were thinking about that as well, it’s not that we ignore potential issues or whatever.

“But when we saw him, it was clear that we will not go for it. That we will have our own solution. And without knowing how much game time he will get already this year. Because of the situation and because of his development, he is obviously now a proper, proper part of the squad, a proper part of the rotation.

“It’s not about performing, they all are good, it’s about how can you share intensity and he plays an important role… It’s an interesting package. I’m really excited about it.”
