As things stand, Liverpool, the reigning champions of England and the side that spent close to £500 million during the summer, are seven points off the relegation zone. Keep in mind, Leeds also have a game in hand.

While speculation about Conor Gallagher is wide of the mark, Gomes is shortlisted.

🗣️ Reports linking Conor Gallagher to Manchester United are inaccurate. Presently, Atleti are not pursuing a sale and have no desire for a loan. The player would also prefer to stay. However, if someone presents an offer of at least €40 million, they would be open to discussions.
