According to Sacha Tavolieri, the player has now switched agents to secure a move away from the club in the summer, and has also assigned his image rights to a new agency. Therefore, Liverpool's move for the attacker is on hold, and they are waiting for all formalities to be completed before they can negotiate a deal for the player.
Liverpool enter the weekend sitting sixth and outside the Champions League places, regardless of whether England earns an additional qualification spot, while Manchester City are under mounting pressure to keep pace with Arsenal in a title race that appears to be slipping further out of reach. Both teams will approach this clash knowing that anything less than three points could prove damaging.
Ben Jacobs has dismissed speculation surrounding Liverpool enquiring for Inter Milan's Denzel Dumfries following the recent injury to Jeremie Frimpong. Despite reports from Italy suggesting the Reds had made contact with the Nerazzurri, it appears Anfield officials may not be pursuing a deal for the Dutch wing-back as the January transfer window enters its final hours. The rumors gained traction after Liverpool's defensive depth was pushed to the breaking point,
It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid is willing to sanction his departure. The 25-year-old has done well for the La Liga outfit since joining them, but a move to the Premier League could be exciting for the French international.

But I think it's safe to say that they could have scored the [third goal to make it] 3-2 also a little bit earlier. What I mean with that, I think after we scored the 2-2, a few players of ours ran out of energy and I cannot even criticise them for that.
Arne Slot had made his wishes clear before kick-off. We want to do better in making more chances from all the ball possession we have. I am waiting for the moment it really clicks, he had said. Thirty two shots on goal with 11 on target would suggest Liverpool obliged against Burnley, but Anfield still waits for Slot's side to click.
As the Liverpool team news graphic above shows, it's Alisson in goal, and what looks like a back four of Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Milos Kerkez, and Jeremie Frimpong. In midfield, it's Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai, and then Ekitike, Wirtz and Cody Gakpo as the front three. Liverpool fans will hope this team can produce a performance today as Slot's men are still not in the most convincing form despite their recent unbeaten run.
