Three summer 2025 transfers to take Liverpool to the next level

Here are three players Liverpool need to sign in the summer 2025 transfer window in order to take their squad to the next level. Eintracht Frankfurt ST Hugo Ekitike I've been a big fan of Hugo Ekitike's since he was a little-known prospect shining at Reims, and as he himself admits, he never should have made the jump to Ligue 1 giants PSG. Since "falling back down" to Eintracht Frankfurt, Ekitike has reestablished himself as one of the best young players in European football and reached new heights in the Bundesliga, and now that Omar Marmoush is balling out for Manchester City, the show is fully Ekitike's to run in Frankfurt. Liverpool are in need of a striker to replace Darwin Nunez - someone who has the all-around ability to create opportunities for others, namely Mohamed Salah,...

Liverpool prepared to sign €60M left back in summer 2025 transfer window

Liverpool have been the best team in European football during the 2024/25 season in Arne Slot's first campaign as the legendary Jurgen Klopp's replacement, and the Reds have to like their chances of winning the Champions League whilst currently running away with the English Premiership. Despite their domestic dominance and European brilliance, Liverpool do have a couple of pressing needs, including center back depth and a new striker to replace the mediocre Darwin Nunez. But their biggest need is undoubtedly at the left back position, as they do not have a top option in the squad. Andrew Robertson has declined precipitously and his days of elite European play are clearly behind him. After Robertson, Kostas Tsimikas is a decent footballer, but the Greek international is nothing mor...

Kobbie Mainoo’s outrageous wage demands from Manchester United

Manchester United defensive midfielder Kobbie Mainoo has suffered a second season collapse amidst the latest turmoil at Old Trafford, going from arguably the brightest spot in the 2023/24 campaign to a real sour note in an even worse 2024/25 campaign for the Red Devils. After playing a vital role in Manchester United winning the FA Cup and, thus, qualifying for the Europa League for the 2024/25 season, Mainoo is now a bit player for Man United, struggling in 15 starts and getting pipped back in the pecking order. Now, there are rampant rumblings that Mainoo is one step away from exiting Old Trafford, owing to hefty wage demands that the increasingly stringent INEOS-led Red Devils may no longer be interested in acquiescing to. According to a report from chief talkSPORT reporter Ale...

Manchester United are being curved by one of their biggest talents

Manchester United have no issue producing great young talents initially, as their academy has been known for generating plenty of hyped footballers who, at least at the beginning, look like future Premier League stars. Marcus Rashford is one prominent example, and while he has finally flamed out and latched on at Aston Villa on loan in one last effort at Premier League relevancy, there is another more recent example worth circling. Defensive midfielder Kobbie Mainoo was one of the few genuine bright spots for Manchester United last season, and he was the reason for their qualification for the Europa League via winning the FA Cup against crosstown rivals Manchester City. Mainoo immediately became an England international and the next big hope for Manchester United in midfield. But ...

David Ornstein addresses Hugo Ekitike to Arsenal transfer rumors

Arsenal didn't sign a new striker in the summer 2024 transfer window and are now paying a dear price for their mistake. Despite a seven-goal outburst against PSV in the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16, the Gunners have struggled to get enough goals this season and have fallen well and truly behind Liverpool in the Premier League title race. Kai Havertz's and Gabriel Jesus's injuries have added another level of desperation to the Arsenal attack, whose performance against PSV can be taken as more of an opponent-based exception to the rule. Arsenal will, once again, be linked to a large number of top strikers next summer, but instead of just being linked with up-and-coming goal-scorers like Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko, the Gunners will also be linked to sure-fire el...

Manchester United begin transfer talks for 12-goal Premier League striker

Manchester United have signed a young striker in each of the past two summer transfer windows, bagging Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta and Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna. But these two Serie A stars have failed to stand out in the Premier League. There is hope yet for both, and Hojlund, in particular, has shown flashes of brilliance at Old Trafford that made him one of the most prized all-around strikers in Italian football. Although a proven, up-and-coming goal-scorer like Viktor Gyokeres, whom new manager Ruben Amorim worked closely with in Lisbon, would seem like the ideal transfer for Manchester United at striker, there's an idea out there that they could go back to a different school of thought. Man United want the next Weghorst In a potential replication of the Wout Weghorst loan m...

Man United, Man City competing for one of Europe’s most underrated stars

Manchester United and Manchester City have both performed well below expectations in the 2024/25 Premier League season thus far, though that means very different things for these two clubs. Man City are used to winning the Premier League title, so their status as a club not even guaranteed to reach the Champions League is, in a way, just as much of a shock as it is to see Man United still toiling in the bottom half of the league table despite a very active summer transfer window - and a new ownership group and manager at the helm. Both Manchester United and Manchester City could use a splash in the summer 2025 transfer window, and the two Premier League powerhouses are headed back to the Portuguese top flight for a potential boost. Trincao could be the next Bruno Fernandes in Englan...

The key outcome Chelsea need for a Benjamin Sesko transfer in summer 2025

Chelsea have been resurgent in the 2024/25 Premier League season, and arguably no club has improved its quality of play this season more than the Blues, who are favorites to secure a top-four place and return to the Champions League. It's a competition Chelsea won outright before Todd Boehly took over and turned the club upside down with haphazard and jaw-droppingly expensive transfers. But finally, some of those transfers are starting to pay dividends for the Blues. Chelsea have a quality Premier League striker in Nicolas Jackson in front of one of the league's best players in playmaker Cole Palmer, but they are still one or two attacking pieces away from truly contending for the league title again. Benjamin Sesko could be close to an exit this summer Benjamin Sesko, who is also w...

Liverpool want to sign Brighton breakout star in summer 2025 transfer window

Liverpool are on the prowl for some more midfield help in the summer 2025 transfer window, even though they have unearthed one of the best midfielders in the Premier League this season in Ryan Gravenberch. Overall, Liverpool have done an amazing job of overhauling their midfield, signing Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, and Wataru Endo in the summer 2024 transfer window to provide the Reds with an entirely new base in the middle. That has proven crucial in returning Liverpool to the status of title contenders in 2023/24 and now overwhelming title favorites in the 2024/25 Premier League season. Liverpool are monitoring Carlos Baleba Liverpool wisely remain hungry for more, and although Martin Zubimendi is viewed as a dream transfer target for the Reds, Michael Edwards and Co...

Arsenal learn Newcastle’s latest Alexander Isak transfer asking price

Arsenal decided not to sign a top striker in the summer 2024 transfer window, though the best options, like Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko, weren't really available. Aside from Raheem Sterling, Arsenal didn't make any significant attacking signings, and now that Kai Havertz is injured to further mount the issues up top, the Gunners are left floundering in the attack and well behind Liverpool in the Premier League title race this season. Gyokeres and Sesko will continue to be priority transfer targets for Arsenal, but the North London giants will need to beef up their list of prospective hires with more ambitious names. Alexander Isak has been the best striker in the Premier League this season The most ambitious of them is Alexander Isak, with the Newcastle striker establishing ...
