January transfer rumours have linked Liverpool to Fulham full-back Antonee Robinson.
Liverpool is prepared to make a move in January to add defensive reinforcements to their roster as manager Jurgen Klopp looks to maintain the Reds’ lead in the Premier League.
The Merseyside club has endured blow after setback in recent weeks, first losing Greek international Kostas Tsimikas after he was tackled by Arsenal and injured his collar bone.
It’s time to replace Tsimikas, who was stepping in for the injured Andy Robertson.
According to recent sources, there is a proposal to sign promising young player Antonee Robinson of Fulham, who is being pursued by several European clubs.
Robinson’s dynamic performances, unwavering work ethic, and lightning-fast pace have attracted the attention of both Liverpool manager Klopp and Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.
Additionally, 90min claims that Liverpool has “reached out” to Fulham to talk about bringing Robinson in during the next transfer window.
If the Reds choose to pursue their interest, they want to know the terms of the agreement and if the US international will be accessible.
However, Liverpool has an important advantage over rivals in the form of attacking midfielder Fabio Carvalho when it comes to Robinson’s possible recruitment.
The Portugal star was signed by the Reds in July 2022, but his opportunities to break into the Liverpool starting lineup quickly became scarce. The player is 21 years old.
Carvalho agreed to go on loan to RB Leipzig, a Bundesliga team known for nurturing young talent and offering big-game opportunities, during the most recent summer transfer window.
Unfortunately, the playmaker’s wish has not come true, as he has only seldom seen playing time.
Fulham is apparently one among the teams willing to take on Carvalho, who Liverpool is reportedly planning to recall from Leipzig next month.
Returning to Craven Cottage would provide Liverpool the opportunity to give their asset additional Premier League experience while also maybe sweetening the pot to transfer Robinson to Anfield and strengthen the defensive ranks.
Despite agreeing to a five-year contract with Fulham earlier this year after an outstanding few seasons at Craven Cottage, Robinson is reportedly “open” to joining Liverpool. The Reds will now start “working on an agreement” with Marco Silva’s team as a result.
Transfermarkt reports that a bid of about £17 million, which is within Liverpool’s reach, would put Fulham’s determination to the test in January.
After failing to get Chelsea star Levi Colwill during the summer transfer window, the Reds are eager to add a defender before the window closes to ensure that they have choices for the upcoming part of the season. A left-sided center-back is also a top priority.

Why fans of Liverpool can now lawfully obstruct any Super League move
Now that a second European Super League is being considered, supporters of Liverpool can prevent their team from entering.
The European Court of Justice’s decision on Thursday caught many off guard and led the A22 Sports Management company to announce preparations for an additional ESL.
Although this created a commotion, analysts of the CJEU’s conclusions don’t think the decision significantly improves the competitive position of A22.
Like the five other English clubs that were initially interested, Liverpool has since made a statement in which it states: “Liverpool FC’s previous stance on a proposed European Super League is unaffected by yesterday’s ruling by the European Court of Justice.”
“We have ceased to be involved.” We’ll keep up our collaboration with other teams via the ECA and take part in UEFA events.
Because the club incorporated a supporters board into its Articles of Association in 2022, Liverpool fans now possess the power to veto the team’s decision to join an ESL, regardless of the club’s intentions.
This was a response to the club’s unsuccessful attempt to breakaway to an ESL the year before. Fans should now have the last word in these decisions.
There are ten Spirit of Shankly representatives on the sixteen-member board. Joe Blott, the previous Chair of SOS, was involved in it.
“We could stop the ESL happening again,” he said to This Is Anfield, adding that “it gives fans the right to veto when we need to.”
This is because the owners must now obtain permission in order to play home games away from Anfield or join a breakaway league.
Blott clarified, saying that “fan consent is required for any existential issues that affect the football club, such as a ground share, ground move, or move to a breakaway league.”
Furthermore, I believe that safeguarding not only our current interests but also the interests of football fans in the future is the primary component of this.
“The club intends to guarantee that the articles of association genuinely incorporate that degree of involvement.”
This implies that subsequent owners will be bound by the same regulations following the departure of Fenway Sports Group.
Although they can’t stop a European Super League from being suggested or established, Liverpool fans can make sure the Reds aren’t included.
Standing as one of the top four clubs in the world, this may influence prospective members. Naturally, that also doesn’t stop FIFA or UEFA from creating their own tournaments that resemble a mini-Super League
