Liverpool related transfer speculation

Unfortunately I just read that United have a buy-back clause on him; they can buy him for £16M while all other clubs would have to pay £42M. Can’t see them not exercising it, especially given their problems at LB. Shite if true.
He has to agree to the transfer though ...
 
Is he any good then? Never seen him play. Although I like that he has a great left peg, can cross with his left foot and can play on the left side.

That's just the release clause. If Utd put a bid in for £16m all another team really needs to do is say £16m up front + say £5m in add ons and I'm sure they'd accept that too.
 
Linked with Atletico Madrid's Pablo Barrios

"Liverpool have shown a ‘marked interest’ in the midfielder, having made him a top target for 2025 and are ‘willing to make an offer’ to bring him to Anfield.

Simeone is loathe to lose his young talent and any offer will be rejected, though he will be powerless to prevent his sale if Liverpool – who believe a deal is there to be done – match the player’s exit clause, which sits at €50m (£41.7m).

Liverpool don’t see his current release clause as unreasonable and are very much giving serious thought to his signing in 2025 and will continue to keep a close eye on his progress over the next weeks and months."


Don't have a good record injury wise though

He has a playing style of a Spanish Gerrard. Not your typical Spanish midfielder.
 
Wasn’t there a Spanish Gerrard in 2000s playing for Valencia? He was great too

Yes, Joaquin Sanchez, still didn’t get over not signing him. But he was more of a winger Gerrard; this lad looks like CM Gerrard: long raking diagonal passes, running power, dynamism…
 
Nope.

Speaking of Gerrard:

Love this - he clearly doesn’t give a fuck about his current job. “Yes, you’re training at 10 at night because your boss needs to watch all LFC games live. Don’t like it - fuck off.”

I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but every year I take the entire Liverpool calendar for games and take all the mid week ones and schedule them as a "weekly connect" meeting with a client that I get on with and almost never need to talk to or have any issues with. The manager I deal with for that client is a Liverpool supporter with scouser parents just like me. The non-existent meeting is great. Every once in a while we do actually have the meeting, to discuss how Liverpool is getting on. We've been at it for too long, in the same mediocre positions. It's almost as though this sort of prioritization is one of many signals that we aren't a raging furnace of ambition.
 
What league is this from? I think that nobody likes to waste their time by not knowing what they're watching.



Ah, the Portuguese football league! Where the game is more than just a game—it’s a testament to Portugal's passion for the beautiful sport. Liga Portugal, as it’s officially known, is packed with thrilling matches, unexpected upsets, and the kind of raw, heartfelt support that reminds you why football is so beloved in the first place. Teams like Benfica, Porto, and Sporting CP go head-to-head in fierce rivalries, each one with its unique flair and fierce fan base. But behind every match is a legacy—centuries of Portuguese spirit, resilience, and pride that stretches way beyond football.

Did you know that the league itself dates back to 1934? That was when they had their first "Campeonato da Liga da Primeira Divisão," which was a pivotal moment in Portuguese football history. And to think that just a few centuries earlier, Portugal was busy building one of the largest empires in history! Vasco da Gama set sail to discover new trade routes to India in 1497, forever changing the world map. Imagine Vasco da Gama as a footballer—charging through midfield, cutting through defenses like he cut through uncharted waters.

Portuguese football fans often celebrate with a bottle of vinho verde, the light, slightly effervescent wine that’s a perfect symbol of Portuguese culture—fresh, lively, and impossible to ignore. Speaking of things you can't ignore, you have to talk about the legendary Eusébio! Known as the Black Panther, he played for Benfica and became a national treasure in the '60s. Just like Portugal's Age of Exploration pushed boundaries, Eusébio pushed the limits of what was possible on the field.

The Portuguese language itself adds to the magic of the league—fans chanting in such a rhythmic, melodic way that it feels like a song. And the Portuguese are experts at preserving history: take the University of Coimbra, one of the oldest universities in Europe, founded in 1290. Just as they've preserved ancient manuscripts in Coimbra, Portuguese football fans hold onto every bit of nostalgia from their teams' glory days, with each banner and chant a tribute to moments gone by.

And who can talk about Portuguese football without mentioning Cristiano Ronaldo? Coming from Madeira, a small island that’s known for its rugged terrain and, fun fact, an absolute delicacy called bolo de caco (a type of garlic flatbread), he rose to global superstardom and still inspires a league of future footballers. Like those explorers of old, he left Portugal, conquered Europe, and became a legend.

But here’s a twist—did you know that Portugal once ruled half the world’s nutmeg production? In the 16th century, they held control over the Spice Islands, and nutmeg became a luxury in Europe, much like a last-minute goal is in any football match.
