The 3 worst contracts Liverpool must get rid of in summer 2025 transfer window

Here are three players Liverpool must get rid of in the summer 2025 transfer market in order to save money on their wages. All salary information is based on figures supplied by FBRef.com. ST Darwin Nunez It's time for Liverpool to move on from Darwin Nunez. While the Uruguayan striker isn't quite as bad as many fans will have you think and deserves a lot more credit for the chances he can create, Liverpool need a striker who is capable of being relied upon as a goal-scorer. Nunez's xG underperformance of nearly eight goals in the previous two Premier League seasons isn't simply down to bad luck; it's just how he is. He is responsible for some of the most laughable gaffes in front of goal in European football these last two seasons, and, as a striker, the work he does off the ball can...

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...

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...

Liverpool want to sign young €55M rated Chelsea defender

Liverpool have been the most dominant team in English football this season and are well on their way to securing the Premier League title again, and there's also a strong case to be made that they are just as favored in the Champions League this season, having demolished defending champs Real Madrid in the league phase. But even as Liverpool are running the table and have both the best overall player in the world this season, Mohamed Salah, and the best defender, Virgil van Dijk, the Reds are always looking to refine their squad in order to stay on top. According to a report from Rousing the Kop, Liverpool are interested in signing Chelsea center back Levi Colwill, who is rated as a 55 million euro player by outlet Transfermarkt. Levi Colwill is one of the Premier League's best youn...

Liverpool learn transfer fee for ideal Andrew Robertson replacement

Liverpool began to realize pretty quickly during the 2024/25 Premier League and Champions League seasons that the time has come to move on from left back Andrew Robertson. Once arguably the world's best left back, the former Premier League and Champions League winner has suffered a rapid decline, which was evident at the end of last season and even during the European Championships this summer with Scotland. But after the likes of Bukayo Saka thoroughly roasted him, Robertson has reached a point of no return, and to save the fond memories of his peak at Anfield, it is high time the Reds make a change at left back, seeing as how nobody currently in the squad has proven capable of stepping in. Milos Kerkez would replace Andrew Robertson Since rumors of parting ways with Robertson fir...

Who is the best current center back in world football?

Who is the best current center back in world football?

Defenders often don't get their due in world football, and it's a conundrum that has impacted the position, especially the center back position, for several decades; it's not a new phenomenon. Fabio Cannavaro, Franz Beckenbauer, and Mattias Sammer are the only defensive players to have won the Ballon d'Or. In addition to just being underrated in general, defenders are hurt by the fact that defensive output and impact are much more difficult to measure objectively and statistically than attacking impact. Even the new-age analytics often do a poor job of adequately evaluating or contextualizing the value of defensive performances. As Paolo Maldini liked to say, the best defenders often don't have to make an intervention at all. Virgil Van Dijk was worth the record transfer fee at cent...

Liverpool reject massive transfer offer for star forward

Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez has been actively linked with a move outside of Anfield for over a year now, as frustration with his poor finishing and lack of progress since his megadeal worth over 80 million pounds. Although Nunez is a great athlete who creates havoc and a sense of danger in the attack, he is a poor finisher and has not shown that he is at the level of a starting striker for a team competing for the Premier League title. If anything, the No. 9 position has been the only weak link in a Liverpool squad that has been carried by Mohamed Salah and now Cody Gakpo from a goal-scoring perspective, with even winger Luis Diaz offering a bigger goal threat than Nunez. But Nunez is still young and talented, so there is hope that he can latch on somewhere else. Lately, the Sa...

Liverpool considering ill-advised swap deal to acquire a potential Mohamed Salah replacement

Liverpool superstar right winger Mohamed Salah still remains without a new contract and could leave the Reds for free this year, with clubs from the Saudi Pro League circling the waters. Salah has been the best player in the world during the 2024/25 season, firing important goal after important goal and shining as brightly as ever as a playmaker for a Liverpool side that is first in both the Premier League and Champions League. Despite the fact that Salah is at the top of his game and expected to remain at Anfield for the foreseeable future, Liverpool are doing their due diligence when it comes to identifying potential long-term replacements for the Egyptian icon. One of those players is Bournemouth breakout star Antoine Semenyo, who is capable of playing anywhere in the front thr...

Brighton in the lead to sign talented Liverpool forward this January

Brighton sit in 10th place in an increasingly competitive top half of the table in the Premier League, but because the margins are now so thin at the top, the Seagulls find themselves a mere five points back of Bournemouth in seventh for a Conference League place. After reaching the Europa League in the 2022/23 season under Roberto De Zerbi, Brighton are determined to get back into European football under Fabian Hurzeler, who could prove to be their best long-term manager yet. After signing promising talents like Georginio Rutter and Brajan Gruda to bolster their attack this past summer, Brighton are still in the market for some more buy-low young players with massive upside. Their focus has turned to Liverpool winger Harvey Elliott, who has fallen out of favor at Anfield and coul...
