Klopp in raptures as £70m Liverpool swoop for Prem star explodes into life; selling club ready to accept bid

Published

on

Liverpool have been told that a bid of £70m will be accepted by Crystal Palace if they want to sign Cheick Doucoure – with Jurgen Klopp ready to ask club bosses to finance the move for the all-action Mali midfielder.

The Reds are determined to add further additions to their midfield after seeing their engine room severely depleted this summer. Indeed, while they have signed Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and, on Friday, Waturo Endo, they still remain three bodies short on last season.

To that end, the Reds were planning for the exits of Naby Keita, James Milner, Arthur Melo and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. But what they did not go into the summer expecting was the sales of stalwarts Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, both of whom jumped onto the Saudi Arabia gravy train.

And while Klopp is no doubt delighted at the addition of Japan star Endo, the Reds boss still hopes to add at least one more midfielder to his ranks this summer.

To that end, a host of top names have been linked, with Fabrizio Romano confirming that Ryan Gravenberch is pushing to quit Bayern Munich in the wake of interest from Liverpool.

However, they continue to also cast their eyes over Fiorentina star Sofyan Amrabat. The Moroccan is available for a fee of around €30m (£25m) though he seemingly prefers a move to Manchester United instead.


That said, another name in the frame, and one much closer to home, is also on the agenda in Doucoure. The 23-year-old defensive midfielder enjoyed an outstanding debut season in the Premier League following a £21m move from Lens last summer.

Named the Eagles’ Player of the Year, he was one of the first names on the teamsheet, putting in a string of fantastic displays.


Liverpool told they can sign Doucoure for £70m

However, Liverpool’s interest in the 12-times capped Mali midfielder threaten to make his spell in south-east London a brief one.

And according to Football Insider, Liverpool have been given major encouragement that a deal could be on the cards.

Indeed, reports earlier this week suggested Doucoure has already made clear he wants to make the move to Anfield.

Now it’s reported the Eagles have responded to Liverpool enquiries by informing the Reds a deal can be done if they meet their £70m valuation.

The price may seem a little on the hefty side, but having missed out on both Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia, Liverpool’s need is now approaching the desperation stage.

As a result, Klopp is determined to ensure Liverpool do not miss out again on a top target with lessons needing to be learned, especially, from the Lavia saga.

The German, therefore, wants a deal to sign Doucoure quickly wrapped up and is reportedly imploring Anfield chiefs to meet Palace’s demands.

Liverpool entertain Bournemouth at Anfield on Saturday but Klopp hopes to have Doucoure in his ranks by the time they next take the field against Newcastle in a mouthwatering clash at St James’ Park next Sunday.

Melissa Shares Isaac’s Sweet Reaction to Baby No. 3 — But His Unexpected Name Choice Has Everyone laughing

Published

on

As the Kearney family prepares to welcome baby number three, fans have been flooding Melissa with heartfelt questions — and her recent responses have sparked laughter, love, and a few happy tears across social media.

Melissa Shares Isaac’s Sweet Reaction to Baby No. 3 — But His Unexpected Name Choice Has Everyone in Tears

When a follower asked how she was feeling and if Isaac was excited about the new arrival, Melissa didn’t hold back her joy:

“Not long at all 😬 Both Isaac and Florence are so excited! I can’t wait to share the special moment with you all — the first time they meet 🥰”

But what truly captured everyone’s hearts was what she shared next

“Isaac is so loving, gentle, and he’s obsessed with tiny babies, so he’s just going to be amazing.”

Anyone who’s followed Isaac’s journey knows how much emotion, depth, and innocence he brings to every moment. But even Melissa couldn’t predict his latest idea — when asked if he still wanted to name his new sister “Connor Bradley,” fans were hit with a twist that had them laughing through tears.


“He wants our new baby to be called Mohammed now 🤭”

Yes — Mohammed!

The unexpected suggestion has fans giggling, but also admiring the beautiful mix of imagination and love that Isaac carries. Whether it’s naming his new sister or simply getting ready to meet her, one thing is clear: Isaac is already in big-brother mode, and his excitement is contagious.


In a world full of headlines, this moment reminds us that joy still lives in the simple things — like a little boy’s love for a sister he hasn’t even met yet.

As the countdown to baby number three continues, fans can’t wait to witness that magical moment Melissa promised: the first time Isaac and Florence meet their new sibling. And who knows — maybe “Mohammed” will become a nickname that lives on in family memory forever.

Liverpool Agree to Sell Defender in €30m Deal – Medical Set as Leverkusen Close In

Liverpool reach agreement to sell player in permanent transfer – Medical now being prepared

Liverpool have reached a full agreement to sell defender Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen in a permanent deal worth €30 million plus bonuses, according to reports from Germany. The transfer is now in its final stages, with the player’s medical examination already being prepared.

Renowned Sky Deutschland journalist Florian Plettenberg broke the news on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), confirming that Leverkusen have sealed a deal with Liverpool to sign the 22-year-old centre-back. Quansah is expected to sign a five-year contract with the Bundesliga club once medicals are completed next week.

Quansah made 25 appearances under Arne Slot last season and has attracted growing attention with his composure, strength, and ability to play out from the back. His development has impressed several clubs across Europe, but Leverkusen have now taken the decisive step to secure his signature — especially after the recent departure of defensive stalwart Jonathan Tah.

Interestingly, this isn’t the only business between the two clubs this summer. Florian Wirtz, Bayer Leverkusen’s midfield gem, is also edging closer to a high-profile move in the opposite direction. The 22-year-old German international reportedly arrived in the UK on Thursday to undergo medical tests ahead of a record-breaking move to Liverpool, which could become the most expensive transfer in British football history.


With Quansah set for a new chapter in the Bundesliga and Wirtz on the verge of becoming Anfield’s newest star, the summer window is heating up fast for both clubs.

If all goes according to plan, Quansah’s transfer will be made official in the coming days, marking a major defensive addition for Erik ten Hag’s side and another high-profile exit from Anfield.


Stay tuned for more updates as both clubs look to finalise paperwork and confirm medicals.

“We Chose Not to Share It”: Isaac Kearney’s Secret Reaction to Trent’s Departure Leaves Fans Heartbroken

Published

on

In the world of football, farewells are never easy — not for players, not for fans, and certainly not for those whose hearts beat for the game in the purest form.

We Only Shared the Good

One such heart is that of young Isaac Kearney.

When news broke about Trent Alexander-Arnold’s departure, fans were eager to know how Isaac, a devoted Liverpool supporter, felt about it. His passion for the Reds and his unmistakable connection to the game have always been evident, especially through the eyes of his loving mum, Melissa.

One fan, curious and concerned, asked Melissa directly:


“How did Isaac react to Trent leaving?”

Her response was simple, honest — and quietly devastating:


“He was actually sad… we just chose not to share 😢 It’s going to be an emotional summer for us if any more players leave 😬”

That single sentence revealed a world of emotion that had remained hidden — a little boy processing the departure of one of his heroes, in silence. While many fans posted their farewells and tributes, Isaac’s grief was private, tender, and unspoken.

After Opening Up About Isaac’s Health, Melissa and Son Send Touching Message to Supporters

The choice not to share his sadness was perhaps a way to protect his vulnerability — or maybe it was too raw to put into words. But now that the truth is out, fans are rallying around him with messages of love and support.

 

He doesn’t need to say it — we can feel it through Melissa’s words,” one supporter commented.

It breaks my heart knowing he held that in. Kids like Isaac remind us why football is more than just a game.”

As the summer unfolds and transfer news continues to shake the football world, Isaac’s mum has already prepared fans for the emotional ride ahead.

“It’s going to be an emotional summer for us if anymore players leave.”

Isaac may be young, but his loyalty runs deep. His silence speaks volumes — and it’s a powerful reminder that behind every football headline is someone quietly feeling the weight of change.

For Isaac and so many others like him, football isn’t just a sport. It’s connection. It’s family. And it’s heroes like Trent who leave behind not just a gap in the team, but a hole in a young fan’s heart.

In a moment that has touched hearts across social media, Melissa recently opened up about how young Florence is beginning to understand her brother Isaac Kearney’s health condition — and her words have left fans emotional.

It started with a simple question from a concerned follower:
“Does Flo know that Isaac is sick or that she is physically ahead?”

Melissa’s honest response was nothing short of moving.

“Yes, she is starting to understand more now… she asks so many questions. But she is so good, and she knows when he needs help and exactly what he needs — and she is always there to help him ❤️”

For many, this moment revealed something extraordinary — a little girl’s deep sense of empathy, awareness, and pure love for her brother.


Isaac Kearney

While Isaac continues to face health challenges, Florence’s quiet strength and willingness to stand by him have become a symbol of hope. She’s not just his sister; she’s becoming his little guardian, his friend, and his helper — often knowing what he needs without a single word spoken.


Fans have since flooded the comment sections with love and admiration. Many say they were moved to tears reading Melissa’s words, while others shared stories of siblings rising to the occasion in similar ways.

One follower wrote,

“This made me cry. Kids understand more than we think. Florence is an angel on earth.”

As Isaac continues his journey, it’s clear he has someone truly special walking alongside him — a little sister who sees beyond his condition and chooses to love, help, and protect him with all her heart.

This story reminds us all of the quiet, powerful bonds that can grow between siblings — and how sometimes, the smallest among us carry the biggest hearts.

Alexander Isak bombshell drops as report confirms how much Liverpool are willing to pay for Newcastle superstar

Published

Liverpool have re-emerged in the race to sign Newcastle United star Alexander Isak and a new report has revealed exactly how much they’re ready to pay.

Alexander Isak bombshell drops as report confirms how much Liverpool are willing to pay for Newcastle superstar

Just three weeks after lifting the 2024/25 Premier League title, Liverpool have already been busy in the transfer market, signing right-back Jeremie Frimpong as their replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Shortly after completing the signing of Frimpong, reports claimed that Liverpool had agreed a Premier League record deal for his former Bayer Leverkusen teammate Florian Wirtz, with Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez also expected to join the Reds.

But it appears that Liverpool will not stop there, as a new report has claimed that they are now exploring a deal for top transfer target Isak, who has attracted interest from several major clubs this summer.

Off the back of an incredible season for Newcastle United, Isak emerged as one of the most exciting strikers in the world, leading to links with Arsenal, Barcelona and several other massive clubs.


However, a report from GiveMeSport suggests that it is Liverpool who are the favourites to sign the Swedish international, and they are prepared to break the British transfer record for a second time this summer in order to do so.

The report claims that Liverpool view Isak, who scored 26 goals and assists six across 42 appearances in all competitions, as their dream signing and are willing to go all out to pursue him.


Following Newcastle securing qualification for the next season’s Champions League, it is believed that Newcastle will demand a bid upwards of £150million if they are even to consider selling their star player.

Although this astronomical price tag would be off putting to many of the other clubs interested in Isak, it is believed that Liverpool are not ruling out such a large bid, if they feel that they can make a deal work.

In order to do so, Liverpool hope that they can secure a respectable transfer fee for out-of-form striker Darwin Nunez, who has been heavily linked with a move to Napoli, Atletico Madrid and several Saudi Pro League sides.

The Uruguayan is just one of several forwards that could leave Anfield this summer, with the likes of Harvey Elliott, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota all potential outgoings.

Should any of these attackers be sold, then Liverpool will look to spend the money raised on a deal for Isak or, failing that, they will accelerate their pursuit of other strikers, including Joao Pedro, Hugo Ekitike and Julian Alvarez.

Liverpool fans send warning to Real Madrid after seeing what Trent Alexander-Arnold did just minutes into his debut

Liverpool fans have issued a warning to Real Madrid after seeing what Trent Alexander-Arnold did just minutes into his debut.

Liverpool fans send warning to Real Madrid after seeing what Trent Alexander-Arnold did just minutes into his debut

Alexander-Arnold was handed a place in the starting XI for Real’s Club World Cup opener against Al Hilal following his high-profile transfer from Liverpool.

He took up a position at right-back and Liverpool fans were quick to react to his first showing for his new club.

Al Hilal got off to a blistering start and enjoyed spells of success from the England international’s side.

The Saudi Pro League side capitalised on Alexander-Arnold’s mistake in the 19th minute as Renan Lodi opened the scoring before his effort was ruled out for offside.


The moment prompted Liverpool fans to send a warning to Real, claiming it was a ‘sample’ and a ‘taste’ of things to come.

One X user wrote: “Real Madrid just got a sample of the defending they can expect from Trent Alexander-Arnold. He’s lucky that flag went up lol.”


A second added: “Real Madrid just got a taste of Trent Alexander-Arnold having next to zero defending instincts.”

A third commented: “Get used to it lads.”

Another said: “Looooool 18 mins in and Trent Alexander-Arnold was out of position got done by Renan Lodi, who scored, but it was offside.”

Alexander-Arnold, however, showed off his range of passing when he picked out a pass to set up a stunning counter-attack, resulting in a goal – with Gonzalo Garcia slotting home from close range.

He has also been stepping into midfield rather than staying wide, attempting to influence the game.

Al Hilal levelled just seven minutes later when Ruben Neves sent Thibaut Courtois the wrong way to convert a penalty.

Speaking at the break, former Champions League winner John Obi Mikel said Alexander-Arnold must ‘tighten’ up his defensive work but hailed his ability to go forward.

For once, today’s hospital visit wasn’t about Isaac — but that didn’t stop him from showing up with his usual charm, compassion, and quiet courage.

Not His Appointment, But Still Her Hero: Isaac Kearney Supports His Little Sister at the Hospital

In a tender moment shared by his mum, Melissa Kearney, on Isaac’s official Facebook page, fans got to see a new side of the young star. She wrote:

“So today’s hospital appointment isn’t actually for Isaac, for once😬

But he’s here supporting his little sister and encouraging her to be brave❤️”

The photo and caption immediately struck a chord with followers, with many praising Isaac not just for his usual energy and charisma, but for his gentle heart and emotional maturity.


It’s easy to celebrate a child for their public moments — their smiles, their talents, their viral clips — but it’s in moments like this that we see the real character behind the camera: a big brother standing tall beside his little sister, quietly cheering her on.

Whether he’s the one in the doctor’s chair or simply holding someone’s hand from the sidelines, Isaac continues to teach us that true bravery is just as much about support as it is about strength.


One thing’s for sure: the Kearney family isn’t just raising a star — they’re raising a solid, kind-hearted young man.
