Liverpool Transfer News Today: Madrid CONTACT, Salah UPDATE, Players DREAM MOVE
Here's our round up of all of the latest transfer news today (Saturday 19 October) as Real Madrid makes contact with Trent Alexander-Arnold's brother.
Super club demands Salah transfer
With the January transfer window just three months away, the rumours are once again hotting up around three Liverpool stars.
Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are all out of contract next summer and there seems to be little to progress in any of them extending their current deals. If Liverpool are unable to negotiate a new deal, the trio will be eligible to sign a pre-agreement with another club from 1 January.
Salah's deal seems to be one spoken about the most, with the Egyptian attracting interest from a number of clubs. The 32-year-old is one of the most important players in Liverpool's deadly attack, with 11 goal contributions in all competitions so far this season.
The latest club to be linked with the winger is Paris Saint-Germain.
Bradley makes transfer admission
Conor Bradley has had a brilliant 2024 – he made his Premier League debut in January, scored his first goal a couple of games later and then won his first trophy with Liverpool, starting in the EFL Cup triumph in February.
His career is progressing nicely, with the full-back now an important part of the first team squad and, more recently, captain of his country.
Bradley led Northern Ireland in their 5-0 Nations League win over Bulgaria and looked right at home as a captain, despite his young age.
However, things haven’t always been plain sailing for the 21-year-old, who has recently revealed that he feared for the future of his Liverpool career.
