Trent Alexander-Arnold is looking to get into the ‘best shape of his career’ as he gears up for another great season with the Reds.

Liverpool welcome 10 first-team members for the opening day of pre-season training on Saturday, with more to follow soon after, as their seasons are extended by international commitments.

Alexander-Arnold finished the season strong after working in a hybrid role of right back and midfield, scoring one goal and seven assists in his last 10 games.

The England international has laid the foundations for another season at Anfield as he looks to keep up the momentum that saw the Reds go on a seven-game winning streak in April and May.

The Times’ Paul Joyce reported that the 24-year-old was taking just a week off from his duties in England before embarking on an intensive training regimen overseas to optimize his fitness.

Alexander-Arnold is said to have spent time at the Under Armor Innovation Center in Portland, Oregon, where he “hovered mountains and rode high” to maximize his potential in 2023/24.

It looks to be another big season in the defender’s career as the Reds look to bounce back from a disappointing campaign that saw them fail to make a serious bid for one of the big titles.

The scouser hopes to play a key role in the new Liverpool, which will feature new midfielders Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai.

Alexander-Arnold is likely to feature alongside the new signings as part of a four-man squad in midfield when the team are in possession, while also carrying out his defensive duties at right-back.

The 24-year-old was one of the highlights of the Reds’ late rise, which narrowly failed, for an unlikely Champions League place and is set to feature in the Europa League for the first time in his career.

Liverpool are gearing up for a season in which they hope to compete on all fronts, as they did in 2021/22, and Alexander-Arnold could once again play a key role in that.

Liverpool is ready to offer £77million and is confident they’ll secure signing – Report

Liverpool have been chasing Uruguayan international and Real Madrid star Federico Valverde for some time, and this time they believe the signing can be completed.

According to a Spanish source, Nacional, the South American midfielder was tempted to leave the Bernabeu when the Reds moved in with an offer last summer.

A fee of €80m was offered by the Merseysiders, but chairman Florentino Perez chose to decline it.
Now Liverpool have prepared an offer worth 90 million euros (£77 million) and they are confident of finally signing Valverde.

According to the Catalan outlet, the Anfield club believe Los Blancos will accept the £77m offer and if it is rejected again, they are willing to pay even more.

Valverde only earns a salary of €4m per season and certainly deserves a raise after helping Real Madrid win every title.

However, the Spanish giants spent a lot of money to lure Bellingham and now have a crowded midfield department.

Moreover, they are even after Kylian Mbappé and need to raise funds to poach the French international from Paris Saint-Germain. So there are doubts over Valverde’s future.

Liverpool have already spent around £95million bringing in the likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai to bolster their midfield department.

Do you think Klopp will have to spend a large sum to sign the versatile Real Madrid superstar?

Two of Saudi Arabia’s biggest clubs in talk with Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah over transfer

Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah is attracting interest from Saudi Arabia as two of the country’s biggest clubs have been in contact with the Egyptian international about a potential move.

The 31-year-old is a hugely popular figure in the Arab world and it would be great for Saudi Arabia to lure the winger into their league this summer amongst the big names they have already signed.

According to Rudy Galetti, both Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal are looking to sign Salah and have already made contact about a transfer.

The journalist told GIVEMESPORT about Saudi Arabia’s interest in the Liverpool star: “He has definitely attracted the attention of Saudi clubs.

Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal are currently the clubs that have shown the most interest in Mohammed Salah . Contacts are ongoing and both clubs are trying to determine if there is room for negotiations.”

Salah has another contract at Anfield until 2025 and the winger is expected to follow. The 31-year-old is still one of Jurgen Klopp’s key players and will want to be part of the rebuild which starts next season.

The Egypt international could one day play in Saudi Arabia but it’s difficult for Salah to make the move anytime soon as there is still a long way to go at Liverpool.
