A $63 million transfer decision is being made by Manchester United, and Michael Edwards “may join Liverpool rival.”

All the most recent information from Liverpool’s competitors in international football, as Man United mulls a surprise player sale and Michael Edwards is rumoured to be making a comeback.

The international break is officially over, and Jürgen Klopp and his Liverpool team will face Manchester City this weekend in a challenging match. The 2022–23 season’s treble winners are presently one point ahead of the Reds at the top of the Premier League standings as they get ready to play on Saturday at the Etihad Stadium.

After their thrilling 4–4 tie with Chelsea in their most recent match in the English Premier League, City will be looking to improve on their performance, while Liverpool will be looking to build on their most recent 3-0 victory over Brentford before the international break. Despite being scheduled for an early kickoff, the game looks to be terrific.

Liverpool supporters will be watching their opponents’ performances during the return of domestic action this weekend, with one eye on the forthcoming match versus City. Here, Liverpool.com surveys the other major teams in the Premier League and throughout Europe to see what news they have to report.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe considers former Liverpool chief

After completing his minority ownership of Manchester United, Oldham-born billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly considering Michael Edwards, the former sports director of Liverpool, for a position at the team.

The deal hasn’t been finalised yet since the 71-year-old wants to take entire football control of the team, even though he just bought a 25% share at Old Trafford. They are still working out the finer points of the arrangement.

Ratcliffe and his allies seem to think highly of Michael Edwards, the former sporting director of Liverpool, and they may consider offering him a position at Old Trafford if the sale is ever finalised. The question of Edwards’ interest in returning to the Premier League remains, though.

According to Liverpool.com, Edwards is renowned for his astute business and decision-making, which may be a threat to Liverpool if he were to join United because the two teams would be direct competitors for spots in the league table. However, it seems unlikely that he will wind up there, and even if he did, he would have a very difficult task ahead of him.

Man United set to allow Ten Hag signing to leave

Despite only joining the team last summer, TEAMtalk claims that Manchester United is prepared to let Brazilian international and former Real Madrid star Casemiro leave. The 31-year-old signed a contract for $88 million (£70 million/€81 million) when he joined in 2022, but his English debut has been difficult due to injuries and the current unrest at United.

More news…….

Liverpool has been mentioned as a possible transfer partner for the 22-year-old Premier League player.

Although it is unlikely that a trade will be completed in January, Wolves left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri is apparently of interest to Liverpool.

This is based on reports from the French publication Le 10 Sport, which is unsure of the extent of Liverpool’s interest in the 22-year-old and whether or not they have contacted him.

Ait-Nouri has shown promise while playing for Wolves, and he seems like a capable long-term successor for Andrew Robertson at Liverpool. However, it’s unlikely that the Reds will view this as an immediate priority at this point.

However, Ait-Nouri is talented enough to transfer to a larger club, so it would be wise to monitor the Algerian international’s status in the next days, weeks, and months.

Le 10 Sport reports that it appears improbable that Wolves will allow the player to leave without a fight, so it may need to wait until next summer, and even then, it’s unclear how much he would cost.

Liverpool may be hoping to replicate the happiness they felt when they signed Diogo Jota from Wolves a few years ago.
