      Kevin grinned like a Cheshire cat as he processed two games against his younger brother later this year.

      “Beyond the result, the experience of facing each other in one of the most beautiful soccer venues will be very special and will last a lifetime.
      “See you soon bro @alemacallister.”
      Alexis joined Liverpool from Brighton in the summer in a deal which could rise to £55m.
      But the 24-year-old’s career on Merseyside got off to the worst possible start as he was SENT OFF for a dangerous challenge in Liverpool’s first home game of the season against Bournemouth.
      But the dismissal was overturned upon appeal and he’s gone on to make three appearances for the Merseysiders so far this campaign.
      Alexis and his Liverpool team-mates will be back in action on Sunday, welcoming Aston Villa to Anfield. More

      Salah is the subject of strong interest from Saudi champions Al-Ittihad, who have already bid £170million.
      Reports also claim that they could even bid as much as £200million to land the 31-year-old.
      Although Salah is said to have told Liverpool he wants the move, he currently remains at Anfield.
      However, Souness has now accused Salah of “flirting” with Al-Ittihad and admits the player wants the move.

      “Make no mistake, Salah is flirting with the Saudis,” Souness wrote in his Daily Mail column.
      “Neither he nor one of his representatives has come out and categorically said, ‘We do not want to go to Saudi Arabia at this time’.
      “If he wanted to stay, someone could have issued a statement to that effect.
      “He is toying with the idea, at the very least, and I think, deep down, he will feel he should go.”

      Salah has less than two years remaining on his Liverpool deal and will be 33 by the time it expires in 2025.
      His future is far from resolved, either, with the Saudi transfer window not closing until Thursday.
      For now, though, he remains a Liverpool player and could be involved against Aston Villa on Sunday.
      Jurgen Klopp will be hoping Salah can add to his goal and two assists from the first three matches this season. More

      Jamie Carragher accused by Gary Neville of ‘changing mind’ on Mo Salah transfer as he reveals what Liverpool should do

      by

      JAMIE CARRAGHER has been accused of “changing his mind” over the transfer of Mohamed Salah by Gary Neville. Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Ittihad launched a £150million bid on deadline day to try and capture the Egyptian, but it was rejected by Liverpool.

      It has also been reported that Al-Ittihad have since tabled a second bid worth £170million and they are willing to go as high as £200million to get a deal over the line.
      If a bid of £200million were to be accepted it would become a new world-record transfer fee, eclipsing the £198million spent on Neymar by PSG back in 2017.
      Liverpool legend Carragher has offered up his opinion on what he thinks his former club should do, but his mate and fellow pundit Neville has claimed that he’s changed his mind on the matter.
      Carragher previously stated that he thought Liverpool should have accepted the £150million offer for Salah, but he has since said they should hold out for the £200millon that could be available.

      Speaking on Sky Sports he said: “I want more money. I actually think, when you look at what [Harry] Kane went for, Mo Salah has got two years to go [on his contract].

      “For Liverpool to sell right now they are going to want more than what he’s worth.”
      He went on to say: “For any player, if that number just keeps going up and up and up, you can’t turn that down and that’s £200million.

      “I don’t think it will [happen] because it’s come so late. If it had come six weeks ago it was a toss of a coin. If that number gets too big you may have to get to January”

      The Premier League transfer window has now closed, but a deal could still be completed with the Saudi Arabian window open until September 7.
      A potential exit for Salah would now mean that The Reds couldn’t get in a replacement until at least January, which would make a deal even more difficult to negotiate.

      Jurgen Klopp is also said to be keen on keeping hold of his star man who has helped him win the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup during his time on Merseyside.
      But a big name move to Saudi Arabia wouldn’t be a surprise with huge stars from all over Europe already making the move to the Saudi Pro League this summer.
      Neymar, Ngolo Kante, Karim Benzema, Riyad Mahrez and Roberto Firmino are just a few who have made the switch to the Middle East. More

      Gary Neville says Darwin Nunez would ‘frighten me’ if he was still playing after Liverpool ace’s incredible cameo

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED legend Gary Neville admits he would be “frighten to death” with the prospect of facing Liverpool star Darwin Nunez.Nunez put together a man-of-the-match performance at Newcastle on Sunday after coming off the bench as his late brace led to a dramatic comeback for the Reds who won 2-1.

      Neville was very impressed with the striker’s “brilliant” performance and insists the record £85million fee the Merseysiders payed Benfica for the Uruguay international last year is already paying off.
      The former ex-England international insists there are some “frantic” elements to his game the 24-year-old still needs to improve.
      But the former full-back is adamant he would be “frightened” to face Nunez at his best back in his playing days, and would much rather take on Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota at the same time.
      Neville told Sky Sports: “They were brilliant finishes and if ever a player needed it, it was him.

      “We talked about [Nicolas] Jackson at Chelsea on Friday night needing a goal for Chelsea. But this lad [Nunez] has been signed for huge money – a different level of expectation because of the money that he’s been signed for.
      “Me and Jamie Carragher [had a] conversation on Monday Night Football last season about whether this guy would come good and we both actually felt that he would.
      “Because of some of the similar things that you see with Jackson – he runs the channels, he’s a massive handful, you’d hate to play against him.
      “But he can be a little scruffy, he just doesn’t look like he can compose himself. He has that frantic element to him that you almost feel like his mind is really quick and that’s not a good think for a striker.

      “But today he set himself, he composed himself and he had one chance before he scored the two goals.
      “When you get paid £75m, £80m, £90m, whatever it’s gonna be, are you gonna score goals in the big moments for your team? That was a huge, huge moment for Liverpool.
      “Because if he can come good, I’d rather play against Gakpo, I’d rather play against Jota – they’re both very good players. But I’d rather play against both of them than Darwin Nunez.
      “He would frighten me to death running off my shoulder. The speed of him, the way in which he always moves. But then if you can’t finish, you don’t have that punch to knock your opponents out.
      “If he has the punch like he has today, he becomes a really interesting players for Liverpool.” More

      Gravenberch, 21, looks set to leave Bayern after falling down the pecking order at the club.
      The midfielder was usually called upon from the bench by manager Thomas Tuchel last season, and that continued today during Bayern’s 3-1 win over Augsburg.
      Gravenberch came on in the 81st minute of a game that saw Bayern new boy Harry Kane continue his excellent start in Bavaria by scoring two goals.
      After the match however, he poured doubt over his future in a Bayern shirt, saying: “I don‘t know what will happen in the next days,” when asked about his future by Bild.

      Gravenberch is also attracting interest from Liverpool with the Merseyside club keen to reinforce their midfield options.
      While Liverpool have already utilised the Bundesliga to reinforce their midfield with the signing of Stuttgart midfielder Wataru Endo, they are understood to still be interested in bolstering their midfield.
      Reports this month suggested that Liverpool sent two officials to Munich to lay the groundwork on a potential deal for the young Dutchman.
      United meanwhile have been tracking Gravenberch for the majority of this transfer window in order to add some much needed balance to a midfield of Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro and Mason Mount that has thus far failed to click.

      It’s understood that the Red Devils are weighting up their options between the Dutchman and Fiorentina captain Sofyan Amrabat.

      Amrabat was left out of Fiorentina’s squad against Lecce this weekend but the Italian club’s sporting director last week said so far no bid has been received from United.
      It is understood that Mason Greenwood’s exit from the club has seen a change in transfer policy at United – with Ten Hag favouring signing a new forward over signing a midfielder now that it is clear Greenwood will not be reintegrated into the squad.
      Gravenberch is reportedly desperate to leave Bayern as he looks to secure a starting place in Holland’s midfield at Euro 2024.
      Bayern will ask for around £22million to secure his signature. More
