Liverpool plot sensational swap move for Serie A starFeatured Image

Liverpool will be hoping to keep the pressure up on Premier League leaders Arsenal when they travel to face Burnley on Tuesday afternoon.

Jurgen Klopp’s side battled to a 1-1 draw against the Gunners at Anfield last time out, leaving them a single point behind Mikel Arteta’s side in the Premier League table.

The German could use the upcoming January transfer window to bolster his squad next month, and it appears that the Merseyside outfit are plotting a sensational move for a Serie A star.

According to Francois Plateau, Liverpool are preparing an offer for AC Milan star Rafael Leao and could consider including current star Luis Diaz as part of a player-plus-cash deal.

The journalist claims that those in charge of the Reds’ recruitment regard the Portuguese as the ‘perfect heir’ to Sadio Mane, who departed Anfield to join German giants Bayern Munich last summer and is now playing in Saudi Arabia.

Leao has attracted interest from Liverpool

Leao, 24, is regarded as one of the best attacking players in Europe, and has 47 goals in 182 matches across all competitions for Milan.

The forward joined the Italian side from French club Lille back in 2019, and his current contract is set to run until the summer of 2028.

Diaz, meanwhile, joined Liverpool from Porto in January 2022, and has since made 69 appearances across all competitions.

The Columbia international has scored 16 goals in that time, as well as providing nine assists.

Despite featuring regularly for Klopp’s side, Plateau claims that the Reds could include Diaz in an offer for Leao, with the Premier League side likely to make a player-plus-cash offer for the Portugal international.

It remains to be seen whether or not Milan would be willing to sell Leao, who has already made 19 appearance for the club so far this season.

Dundee boss Tony Docherty has revealed talks are underway with Liverpool about the future of Owen Beck.

The left-back has lit up the Scottish Premiership in the first half of the campaign and his impressive displays even saw him force his way into the full Wales squad. However, due to injuries at Anfield, speculation has emerged that the 21-year-old could be recalled.

Andy Robertson is recovering from surgery, after dislocating his shoulder during the international break following a coming-together with Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon. While Kostas Tsimikas suffered a suspected broken collarbone during Saturday’s draw with Arsenal.

Dundee currently sit seventh in the Scottish Premiership, and Docherty, speaking to the Daily Record before the Greece international picked up his injury, is hoping that Beck won’t be heading back to Anfield next month.

He said: “We are still in talks just now. Like Mal (Boateng), it is an important stage for these young players. They are getting regular football.

“They’re also coming up and playing in a prestigious league and getting exposure. They are playing really good teams, against good players at good stadiums.

“There is also the exposure of television and they are all big pluses for the team coming up. They are all thriving. The relationships with all their parent clubs are good.

“We are in constant consultation to make sure we are looking after their players properly and on top of that.

“Down in England it is Saturday/Tuesday and up here there is more time on the training ground and to develop them.

“In terms of Owen, we have had him in the gym to develop him physically. It is another factor and you really need to pull on everything to attract this level of player.

“They do or they wouldn’t send them up. So far it has been successful for Dundee FC and we have been really happy with. It is something we are not blasé about.

“You need to make sure you commit to the parent club and what you promise you deliver. Hopefully, we have been doing that and you see the development of the players. It benefits us but it also has to benefit the parent club.”

Burnley vs Liverpool: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today
Just a point needed to put Liverpool top of table

MARC MAYO
4 HOURS AGO
Liverpool can go top of the Premier League table again with a victory against Burnley later today.

Jurgen Klopp’s team will leapfrog Arsenal with a point in the early evening kick-off at Turf Moor, before rivals Aston Villa head to Manchester United later on Boxing Day and the Gunners wait two days to host West Ham.

A pair of draws at home have kept Liverpool on steady pace to challenge for the title, even if they are yet to sparkle and dazzle like true champions might.

Nonetheless, Klopp will point to his team being right in the mix at this point as a near-perfect execution of his plans for the season.

Likewise, Vincent Kompany is out to keep his Burnley side looking up having hit decent form of late in their battle to beat the drop.

Date, kick-off time and venue
Burnley vs Liverpool is scheduled for a 5.30pm GMT kick-off later today on Tuesday, December 26, 2023.

The match will take place at Turf Moor.

OPINIONI’ve had enough of VAR and Premier League referees – they could cost Liverpool the title
John Aldridge reflects on Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Arsenal and previews today’s clash with Burnley in the Christmas edition of his weekly Liverpool column

Howard Webb and referee Simon Hooper

I am seriously concerned by the standard of officiating we are seeing in the Premier League on a weekly basis.

Quite how Martin Odegaard’s handball against Liverpool on Saturday evening was missed is an absolute mystery. I was doing commentary on the game and could see it from way up in the stands, so how did referee Chris Kavanagh not spot it? It was absolutely blatant.

David Coote, who was on VAR, deemed it an incident not worth referring Kavanagh to the pitchside monitor for. It just beggars belief, honestly. We’ve had issues in the past with Coote – most notably when he was on VAR the time Jordan Pickford decided to end Virgil van Dijk’s season and didn’t even get a yellow card for doing so.

This was the easiest decision Coote will have to make all season and he’s somehow got it wrong. Odegaard’s hand has moved towards the ball. If that was outside the box, that’s 100 per cent a foul. So what’s the difference with it being in the penalty area as opposed to anywhere else on the pitch?

I was on the train with Liverpool supporters when Arsenal lost and this is what happened
It was played down on the television and was not scrutinised in the same way many decisions are, which was bizarre. It is so poor, it’s shambolic. It doesn’t make any sense as to how it was not picked up by VAR.

Odegaard has panicked when he’s seen Salah moving past him with the ball, and we’ve all done it. This shouldn’t be overshadowing what was a great game, but it is an absurd call and it cannot be brushed to one side. Coote should be taken off duty for two weeks after this because who knows how much of a say this could have later down the line?

This wrong call could be the difference between us winning the league and finishing second. We’ve already had to deal with the debacle of the Luis Diaz disallowed goal at Tottenham Hotspur and now we’ve been involved in another disgraceful decision. When is this going to stop? If it is a 50/50 decision, you can sympathise. But it was a clear penalty, so what has Coote seen that stopped him from flagging it up?

Moving on from VAR, I have to give credit to Arsenal for at least making it an enjoyable game. Unlike Manchester United, they arrived at Anfield with a real purpose and could be proud of their performance. They are evolving as a team under their manager and you can clearly see how they’ve improved.

Our draw with Arsenal was a great result for Manchester City, more than anyone else. They will have been delighted with how that played out and will now fancy their chances of hunting us and Arsenal down. They are going to come back fighting when De Bruyne is fit, make no mistake about it.

Trent Alexander-Arnold could have won the game for us during the second half when we flooded forward and struck the crossbar. It was unlucky as it was not a true pass played to him. If we had a striker in that position, they would guide it and let the ball come off their foot. Trent went for power and that’s why it just went a little bit high, but the endeavour and sprinting he displayed to take up that position showed how much it meant to him. He was one of the best players on the pitch yet again, he is so influential. His assist for Salah’s goal was ridiculous.

Injuries beginning to bite

Losing Kostas Tsimikas was a major blow on Saturday night, it was such an unfortunate injury for him after impressing in the absence of Andy Robertson. We now have no fit senior left-back and that is a major worry. Robertson should at least be back next month, which will be brilliant, but it is a waiting game until then.

We really need to keep Joe Gomez fit because if we lose him, we’ve then got a real problem on our hands. Gomez is Mr Versatile, he can play at left-back, right-back and centre-back. That makes him such an asset to the team. He will likely have to fill in at left-back while Tsimikas is out. With James Milner no longer around, other people are going to have to step up and slot in where required.

Roberto Firmino to make emotional Liverpool return and this is how you can see him
Alexis Mac Allister can’t be too far away from coming back now, along with Robertson and Jota. We don’t know about Bajcetic and I’m starting to give up on Thiago – I don’t know what has happened there. I’m hoping Luis Diaz’s setback is nothing serious. To lose him for an extended period again would be devastating.

Burnley are up next for Liverpool later this afternoon and they will be bang up for it after earning an impressive win at Fulham on Saturday.

Best wishes to ECHO readers

I hope you all enjoyed Christmas Day with your families, at what is a special time of the year. Thank you for reading my columns throughout 2023 and best wishes for the New Year. Let’s hope it’s a good one on and off the pitch!

LIVERPOOLLiverpool open talks to sign Fluminense star Ninoby JitDecember 25, 2023
Share
Tweet
Jurgen Klopp liverpool

Liverpool have reportedly opened formal talks with Fluminense to enquire about the details of signing Nino in the upcoming transfer window, as per a recent report.

Following Joel Matip’s season-ending ACL injury, the Reds are currently thin in numbers in their defensive department. Although they have Ibrahima Konate and Jarell Quansah as the centre-back option to play alongside, Virgil van Dijk.

But, while Konate has struggled with injury problems since moving to Anfield back in 2021, Quansah is still very young and hasn’t had much experience playing at the highest level.

Liverpool also have Joe Gomes – who can play in centre-back – at their disposal, but it is likely that he would be used in the left-back position following the injury absence of Andy Robertson and Konstantinos Tsimikas.

So, it appears Liverpool have acknowledged the fact that they need to strengthen their backline in January to continue their title charge in the second half of this season.

Nino to Liverpool
Now, according to a recent report(via The Mirror), Liverpool have started to explore the market to sign a new defender next year and have identified Nino as a serious option.

The report further claims that the Merseyside club have already made contact with Fluminense to enquire about the details of signing the Brazilian in the upcoming window.

The report also says that Nino is set to enter the final year of his current contract so the defender could be purchased in a cut-price deal should Liverpool opt to make a concrete approach in January.

The 26-year-old has enjoyed a stellar campaign this term, helping his side win the Copa Libertadores trophy and also guiding Fluminense to the final of the Club World Cup before losing to eventual champions Manchester City.

Nino, standing at 6ft 2in tall, is good in the air, comfortable playing out from the back, excellent in defensive contributions and also has the tendency to chip-in with some important goals.

So, the South American – valued at around £10m by Transfermarkt – could be a solid signing for Liverpool to reinforce their defence if they purchase him.

However, it is going to be interesting to see whether the Merseyside club eventually opt to formalise their interest in acquiring his service next month.
