Liverpool News: Player could exit in January

A “particular” Liverpool participant might now be allowed to depart the membership by Arne Slot within the January switch window, in an intriguing new declare.

All isn’t properly at Anfield proper now, with the Reds staggeringly dropping their final 4 matches in all competitions, together with Sunday’s grim 2-1 defeat at dwelling to Manchester United within the Premier League.

So many issues really feel fallacious with Liverpool, with new signings struggling to hit the bottom operating and key gamers horribly off form, from Alexis Mac Allister to Mohamed Salah.

The January window will afford the Reds a chance to make new signings, however a brand new report suggests a present participant might really depart halfway by the season.

In response to MilanLive [via Sport Witness]Liverpool might permit Joe Gomez to depart the membership and be a part of AC Milan in January, with the 28-year-old probably transferring on for as little as £8.6m, or as much as £13m.

It’s acknowledged {that a} alternative can be wanted for the Englishman, although, with Slot permitting him to depart in these circumstances.

A horrible time for Liverpool to let Gomez go away?

Except Liverpool have one other centre-back lined up in January, it is senseless in anyway for them to let Gomez transfer to a different membership.

Giovanni Leoni is already out for the season, whereas Ibrahima Konate is off form and injury-prone, and Gomez is even able to doing a stable job at right-back, being hailed by Slot prior to now:

“Joe is affected person in a great way, he all the time makes certain he’s prepared each time the membership or his teammates want him, and that’s particular in terms of his mentality as a result of not many gamers can do that for therefore a few years that he has executed this. However final season he performed many, many, many video games – I believe you would name him a starter that season – and in another seasons possibly he was extra of the second alternative in each different place within the final line.”

Gomez is now Liverpool’s longest-serving participant, and may proceed to be an excellent squad possibility, and whereas cashing in on him makes some sense as an alternative of dropping him on a free in 2027, January can be a ridiculous time to promote.
