Transfer discussion thread

[chef]

Ornstein reports:

- Previously reported that Liverpool had no January plans for CB replacements. Has heard nothing to suggest this has changed.
- Rice to Chelsea increasingly looking like a matter of 'when' not 'if'.
- Alaba will join a new club in July. Will not sign new deal and refuses to be sold this month. Spain his preference but City, United and Liverpool chasing the free agent.
- Southampton keen on Brandon Williams on loan.
- Arsenal were planning a big spending summer 2021 with departures of Mustafi, Ozil, Sokratis and Luiz possible. The inability to score is seeing some of this possibly brought forward to the winter. Aoaur has fallen down the scouting order. Eriksen will not be considered.
- Saliba expected to be loaned out in January.
- Mourinho would like back up for Hojbjerg at defensive midfield. Funds may not be available.
- Balogun expected to leave Arsenal in the summer as a free agent, Liverpool are admirers of the teenager, but foreign clubs being able to talk to him Jan 1 makes that option much more straight forward.

Arsenal do not have scouts. Would be impossible to fall down the list.

I figured we wouldnt buy in January. Klopp isnt the knee jerk kinda guy.

 

[SM]

Surely you loan a player or two in. Moronic not to with all this carry on about a thin squad.

Ornstein isnt reliable with anything LFC related. Most LFC sources have been saying we are looking to sign a CB in January.

I guess we will see. I think we sign one if it is one of the players Klopp is actually after. If he is offered a stop gap player then I bet Klopp says no.

And continues to whinge about the lack of fit players he has.

Really? When? Last time he mentioned anything was nearly a month ago when he fielded questions about rotating the side against Ajax. He didn't bring it up, was asked by journalists so bit of a stretch to call that a whinge so to speak.

Glad to hear issues of rotation are not an issue anymore then.
