Cody Gakpo has been officially confirmed as a new Liverpool player, and will move to Anfield on January 1. However, fans may have to wait to see him in action, according to a new report. The Reds made the announcement yesterday that Gakpo had joined the club from PSV for an undisclosed fee. The 23-year-old recreated the photo used to unveil Virgil van Dijk, as he stood in front of a Christmas tree whilst holding a Liverpool shirt. Speaking upon the confirmation of the signing, Gakpo told the club’s official website: “I think this is a great club for me to come in and try to…

Mohamed Salah could break Robbie Fowler’s record for the most left-footed goals in Premier League history when Liverpool face Leicester City on Friday evening. The man affectionately referred to as ‘God’ by supporters of the red side of Merseyside scored 105 goals with his left foot in his multiple stints in the Premier League. The Egyptian has scored four goals in the last four games, and is sat on 104 left-footed goals, just one behind the former England international. One goal would equal the record, while two would leave Salah as the new record-holder to add to the multiple competition records he already holds. The 30-year-old holds the…

Darwin Nunez’s struggles at Liverpool will soon be over, according to Jurgen Klopp, who thinks the Reds striker can replicate Robert Lewandowski’s early turnaround at ex-club Borussia Dortmund. Jurgen Klopp reckons that “there are a lot of similarities” between struggling Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez and his former No.9, Robert Lewandowski. Lewandowski, now starring for Barcelona, was signed by Liverpool boss Klopp for Borussia Dortmund in 2010. The Pole initially found life difficult in the Bundesliga before becoming one of world football’s most prolific marksmen over the next four seasons with the German giants and later, Bayern Munich. It’s the kind of turnaround which Klopp is backing his current striker, Nunez, to replicate. “There are…

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is in such hot goalscoring form that he’s now hit the back of the net more times this season than the entire team of one of City’s title rivals. Erling Haaland has scored more Premier League goals this season than Chelsea’s entire team. The frighteningly-prolific Norwegian picked up from where he left off before the World Cup break by bagging a brace as Manchester City steamrolled past Leeds at Elland Road last night, bringing his tally to 20 league goals after just 14 appearances. Graham Potter’s Chelsea, who have (or had, at least) ambitions of winning the title, lest we forget, have scored…

Jorginho’s agent explains the state of play heading into January as midfielder bids fly in amid links to the likes of Enzo Fernandez. Jorginho’s agent has once again spoken about regarding the Italian’s future at Chelsea.

Chelsea are trying to revamp their midfield and are looking at younger, more physical presences in front of their defence but Jorginho was still chosen to start against Bournemouth as the Premier League returned. He played the full match having not been away on international…

Chelsea are making progress in talks over a new contract with N’Golo Kante and are growing in confidence the midfielder will re-sign, according to reports. The French international has struggled this year with injuries and had looked likely to leave Stamford Bridge when his contract comes to an end next summer. With a number of teams – such as Spanish giants Barcelona – interested in Kante, the Blues have decided to try and renew his deal at Stamford Bridge in recent weeks. According to The Athletic, the west London side have held positive talks with the Frenchman and his representatives over a new deal with the…

Graham Potter is set to receive numerous additions to his current squad in the January transfer window as Todd Boehly seeks another overhaul at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea and Todd Boehly are not messing about in 2023. As we creep towards the end of 2022, preparations for the new year are well underway at Stamford Bridge amid a major overhaul of Graham Potter’s squad. The Blues currently sit eighth in the Premier League table after 15 games and face a monumental task of finishing in the top four in May. There remains plenty of time for Potter’s men to rediscover their form…

Manchester City’s goal hero Erling Haaland promised to hunt Arsenal down in the Premier League title race. Haaland reached 20 goals for the season with a double during Wednesday night’s 3-1 victory over Leeds United. The win took City within five points of Mikel Arteta’s league leaders as they gun for a fifth league crown in six years. ‘Arsenal, we have to hunt them,’ Haaland said. ‘Now we have to show who is the best team in the league.’ With just 14 matches under his belt, Haaland is already only four goals shy of beating the golden boot tallies of the last four campaigns. And…

Manchester United have already forgotten about Cristiano Ronaldo and moved on from his acrimonious exit, says Christian Eriksen. United won their first Premier League game since ripping up Ronaldo’s contract over his explosive interview with Piers Morgan when they beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday night. While Eriksen acknowledged that Ronaldo will always be part of United folklore, the Dane admitted that he has already been consigned to history. ‘First of all, we are sad that Ronaldo is not part of it – his legacy and his name at any club is special,’ said Eriksen. ‘For me to be fortunate to play with him in my career…

Erik ten Hag had one main reason for leaving Harry Maguire on Manchester United’s bench against Nottingham Forest – with Luke Shaw favoured in his unfamiliar position of central defence. Erik ten Hag was forced to play Luke Shaw in central defence for Manchester United’s Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest due to a squad illness. Club captain Maguire was not in the best of condition going into the Old Trafford fixture having only had one training session since England were knockout of the World Cup. In addition, Manchester Evening News report that the 29-year-old has also struggled to shake off a virus – but…

During the early stages of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there weren’t a lot of female characters around to portray their power on-screen. Before Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff, the Black Widow actress Scarlett Johansson revealed that only she and Cobie Smulders (as Maria Hill) had the responsibility thrust upon them to portray strong female characters. In an interview, the Black Widow actress complimented her fellow co-star Elizabeth Olsen’s remarks and acknowledged that she was envious of her. Scarlett Johansson Was Envious of Elizabeth Olsen Following a brief appearance in Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff became an official member of the MCU in Avengers:…

People have been left seriously freaked out over a video in which a woman appears to ‘completely disappear’ behind Scarlett Johansson on the red carpet. The mysterious moment unfolded back in 2006, when the 38-year-old Marvel star attended the Golden Globes. As you can see, Johansson leans over to answer a couple of questions, telling the interview that she’s wearing Valentino and that her highlight of the evening was Philip Seymour Hoffman winning Best Actor for his role in Capote. Fantastic choice, but since that moment viewers have been less focused on her answer and more focused on the fact that it looks like a…

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has given his view on new signing Cody Gakpo.

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson revealed he was once ‘ready to kill’ a former Reds team-mate after an incident during a training session. Henderson has been at Liverpool for 11 years, having joined from fellow Premier League side Sunderland under the management of Kenny Dalglish. He was made Reds captain in 2015 following the departure of Steven Gerrard. Henderson has made nearly 500 appearances for the club, and is one of Jurgen Klopp’s most dependable players. He has won eight trophies with Liverpool, including the Premier League and Champions League on one occasion each. Now 32, Henderson played at his third World Cup in Qatar, and made four appearances for England during the tournament,…

Liverpool have been linked with a move for England’s World Cup star Jude Bellingham. Liverpool have been told to avoid paying a “stupid amount of money” for England star Jude Bellingham, and instead sign two players who can improve Jurgen Klopp’s squad at a lower price.

Former Liverpool midfielder Didier Hamann has warned the Reds…

Liverpool are about to sign Cody Gakpo. It would set off multiple transfer parallels with Luis Suárez, involving ramifications for a certain Darwin Núñez too. A prolific young forward signed for Liverpool from the Dutch league. Somewhere, Darwin Núñez must have his head in his hands. The Liverpool striker will certainly not be scared of competition. In any case, Cody Gakpo has done most of his best work from the flanks, suggesting the duo will end up as a partnership rather than a rivalry. But with Núñez already facing a barrage of Andy Carroll comparisons from the stands every week, the arrival…

Rico Lewis has played better than this and that is perhaps the most significant indication that Manchester City seem to have another serious prospect on their hands, because as full Premier League debuts go, this was not bad at all. He operates at right back but then to say that is not really doing Lewis justice, having spent half of last night tucked beside Rodri as an auxiliary midfielder. And looking as if he had been doing it for years. Tactical dexterity should not come quite this easy. Barely 18, the teenager from Radcliffe – a little town nine miles north of the Etihad…

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has joked that Kalvin Phillips has the ‘perfect body’ after he dropped him from the squad and first team training last week after he returned from the World Cup overweight. Phillips was recalled to the City bench on Wednesday night for the club’s trip to his former side Leeds United, a sign that Guardiola’s anger at his situation had somewhat abated. ‘He’s not injured – he arrived overweight,’ Guardiola said last week. ‘I don’t know [why]. He didn’t arrive in the condition to do training sessions and to play.’ Asked about the possibility of Phillips appearing this weekend for City in their…

A frustrated Pep Guardiola booted a water bottle straight into the Leeds United bench after watching his side concede – but instantly sprinted over to apologise. Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola frantically raced over to apologise to the Leeds United bench after expertly booting a water bottle in their direction. The Spaniard was left fuming after watching his team throw away a clean sheet at Elland Road, looking down at the helpless beverage before delivering a strike that Erling Haaland would be proud of. Messing up his kick and watching it fly into the opposition dugout, Guardiola put his hands on his head…

Erling Haaland continued to re-write the record books in Manchester City’s win at Leeds. Erling Haaland broke two more records – one previously held by Lionel Messi – with his goals during Manchester City’s Premier League defeat of Leeds United on Wednesday. Haaland was at the double as City saw off the Yorkshire side 3-1, his two second-half strikes putting City firmly in control after Rodri had broken the deadlock just before half-time. The brace saw Haaland take his City goals tally to 26 in 20 appearances in all competitions, a return that has broken two separate records. Haaland’s first strike will likely…
