Here is a roundup of the top Liverpool news gossip and transfer latest from icfootballnews featuring the likes of Dominik Szoboszlai, Jarrod Bowen and Alexis Mac Allister that you guys could have missed…
Liverpool have no intention of allowing midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai to leave the club despite fresh speculation around his future, according to a report from TEAMtalk.
Sources close to the club insist Liverpool view the 23-year-old as central to their long-term project, dismissing the idea that the Hungarian international could depart during the upcoming transfer window. Interest from several European clubs has reportedly prompted enquiries, but Liverpool’s position remains “firm and unwavering.”
Szoboszlai joined LIVERPOOL in 2023 after the club activated his release clause at RB Leipzig, and he made an immediate impact with his dynamism, creativity, and relentless work rate. His debut Premier League campaign showed flashes of elite potential before a mid-season injury disrupted his rhythm. Even so, Liverpool’s coaching staff and recruitment department continue to view him as one of the squad’s most important assets.
A club source quoted in the TEAMtalk report reinforced that sentiment, stating there is “absolutely no scenario” in which Liverpool would entertain offers for the midfielder this year.
Why Liverpool are so keen to keep him
Szoboszlai’s blend of athleticism, technical ability, and tactical versatility aligns seamlessly with Liverpool’s shift toward a more possession-based, fluid system. His ability to operate as an advanced midfielder, wide creator, or central playmaker gives the coaching staff valuable flexibility.
At just 25, he already captains his national team and has shown natural leadership in Liverpool’s dressing room. The club views him as part of its next-generation leadership core alongside other young stars, and given his status as Hungary’s standout footballer and a figure with growing global recognition, he has become both a sporting and commercial asset.
Players with his physical profile, creativity, and high work rate are rare and extremely expensive. Liverpool believe replacing him would be harder—and costlier—than simply keeping him.
With LIVERPOOL publicly and privately shutting down any transfer speculation, all signs point to Szoboszlai playing a major role in the club’s upcoming season as they continue to rebuild their midfield and strengthen the squad for future title challenges.
MAC ALLISTER TO HOLD LIVERPOOL TALKS
The father of Alexis Mac Allister, Carlos Mac Allister, has weighed in on swirling speculation linking the Liverpool star with a sensational summer move to Manchester United, saying his son’s priority remains at Anfield and adding that upcoming contract discussions with Liverpool will be crucial to any future plans.
Reports earlier this week suggested United are considering an audacious bid for the Argentine international as part of a major midfield overhaul at Old Trafford. However, sources close to the situation indicate that while United continue to monitor the midfielder’s situation, there is currently no concrete offer or advanced negotiations underway.
In comments to WinWin, Mac Allister’s father – who also acts as his agent – was quick to cool down speculation around a move down the M62. “Alexis is only thinking about LIVERPOOL at the moment. “We are waiting for an offer to renew his contract. We will see what the club’s plan is.”
When pressed about the possibility of a move away if Liverpool fail to meet his valuation or renewal terms, the elder Mac Allister declined to be drawn further, adding: “We’ll wait and see what happens with the renewal. That’s all.”
Mac Allister’s current deal at Anfield runs until June 2028, and Liverpool are understood to be keen to tie the midfielder down to fresh terms – especially as they look to maintain stability in their engine room alongside key teammates such as Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch.
Contract talks, however, appear to have yet to formally kick off, leaving room for speculation to build in the transfer market.
Despite the noise, pundits and insiders have largely treated the Manchester United link with scepticism, noting the historic rivalry between the clubs and the unlikelihood of LIVERPOOL sanctioning a direct transfer to one of their fiercest rivals.
Indeed, recent coverage has labelled such a move as highly unexpected, with few believing a switch to Old Trafford is realistic at this stage of the saga.
For now, the message from the Mac Allister camp is clear: discussions over a contract extension will take centre stage, and any talk of a Premier League rival swooping in is premature.
Whether Liverpool make a formal offer and how both sides respond in the coming weeks could dictate if this story develops into a genuine transfer battle or quietly fades as another summer rumour
LIVERPOOL URGED SIGN BOWEN
Liverpool have been urged to consider a move for West Ham United captain Jarrod Bowen if they decide to move on from Mohamed Salah in the near future.
The ‘Egyptian King’ has a contract at Anfield running until 2027 but he has been tipped to leave this summer while the club can still extract a transfer fee for him, with reports a move to Saudi Arabia could be on the cards for the attacker.
And amid the speculation, former Chelsea star and TV commentator Andy Townsend has claimed that Liverpool should look to sign West Ham star Jarrod Bowen should they decide to let Salah go at the end of the season: “Who can Liverpool bring in to take Mohamed Salah’s place next season? I think Jarrod Bowen would do very well for LIVERPOOL,” Townsend continued.
“I don’t quite get the Rodrygo links. Clearly if you play for Real Madrid you’ve got great ability but I’ve never seen him as a Galactico.
“Jarrod Bowen would absolutely go to Liverpool and be a real threat for them from the right on that side. They’d have Cody Gakpo, Hugo Ekitike and Jarrod Bown. They give you pace, work rate, goals and real output. That’s a frontline that has everything you could want.
“Liverpool are going to have to look at Bowen because I just don’t see Salah staying beyond this summer. Whatever’s gone on at Anfield, it’s just taken a bit of wind out of Mo’s sails.
“Whether it’s a relationship problem or he’s just getting older, whatever it is he’s never going to be able to keep producing the numbers like he has done in the past. It just looks like Mo is now running out of steam and there’s no shame in that.
‘It’s just football. It’s part and parcel of getting older. Mo’s best days are behind him and they’ve got to replace him.”
