Slot on Frimpong injury and defensive shortage

 

Liverpool host Newcastle in today’s late Premier League kick with the aim of getting their campaign back on track after a run of stuttering results.

 

The Reds have not won in any of their last five league matches and went down 3-2 to Bournemouth last weekend thanks to a stoppage-time winner from the Cherries. However, Arne Slot’s men secured a confidence boosting 6-0 victory over Qarabag in the Champions League during the week and they will hope to carry that form into the tricky encounter tonight.

 

Newcastle, meanwhile, impressed in their own Champions League outing by forcing a 1-1 draw with the holders Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc de Princes. Though that draw ended with the Magpies in the play-off round, it was a strong result following a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa in their previous fixture.

 

The teams last meeting in the league was a thrilling affair back in August as Newcastle twice pegged Liverpool back before 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha netted a 100th minute winner to earn the Reds a 3-2 win.

A bad start to the year

 

Liverpool are winless in their last five Premier League games (D4 L1), last having a longer run in a single season between November and January in 2002-03 (11 under Gérard Houllier).

 

Indeed, Liverpool could fail to win each of their opening six league fixtures of a calendar year for the first time since 1954 (first 10) – the last year in which they were relegated.

Arne Slot appears to rule out new signings despite Liverpool’s growing injury concerns

 

Liverpool manager Arne Slot appeared to rule out making a defensive signing this month despite admitting that he thinks Jeremie Frimpong will be “out for a period of time” after the Dutchman was forced off against Qarabag.

 

Frimpong pulled up with a potential hamstring injury within the first three minutes of the Reds’ 6-0 demolition of the Azerbaijani side, with the Dutchman falling and requiring treatment before trudging off and being replaced by Wataru Endo.

Joelinton could be back in ‘weeks’

 

Another injury update from Eddie Howe who spoke about Joelinton this time.

 

He said: “He flew on to Barcelona after the game to get an injection in his groin. It was good news.

 

“The specialist feels he only needs one injection and that means his return could be quite quick and we’re looking at weeks, not months.

 

“Unsure of the exact date yet, but it’s positive news.”

Guimaraes is a doubt for Newcastle

 

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe issued an update on his captain, who is a doubt for today’s game.

 

Howe said: “It’s slightly unknown at the moment. He did really well to be with us in Paris, that was down to the fact he was desperate to support the players.

 

“He did very, very light training. He trained with us yesterday but that was more of a test so we’ll see how he is today. This will be where we decide [for Saturday].”

Slot issues updates on Gomez and Frimpong

 

It is likely that Liverpool will play with a makeshift right-back today with their professional defenders all injured.

 

Of Jeremie Frimpong and Joe Gomez, Arne Slot said: : “He [Frimpong] will definitely not be in the squad tomorrow, so he is out for a few weeks. But [it’s] not as bad as we thought he would be out. It’s something positive from something not so positive.

 

“Joe will not be available but that doesn’t have to take much longer anymore, but he will not be available for the weekend.”

Liverpool hit Qarabag for six as Arne Slot uses Champions League triumph to drown out noise

 

Arne Slot said before the game it is going to be really difficult to shut down the noise around Liverpool given their struggles so far this season.

 

Yet this was a performance which surely turns down the volume a little even if it will still be far from silencing the critics.

 

In Europe, the Reds are certainly setting a different tone to the one in the Premier League.

The contract and paperwork are already in place for Liverpool to welcome back Jarell Quansah, who left Merseyside to join Bayer Leverkusen last summer, to help fill out the Reds’ thin defensive ranks

Published

on

Yes — that claim lines up with multiple transfer-news reports: Liverpool could re-sign 23-year-old England centre-back Jarell Quansah from Bayer Leverkusen in future, thanks to a buy-back clause in the deal that sent him to Germany — but not immediately next season.

🔁 What’s Happening with Quansah and Liverpool

Quansah moved from Liverpool to Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2025 for a reported fee around £30m-£35m (plus add-ons), joining the Bundesliga side on a long-term contract.

As part of that transfer, Liverpool inserted a buy-back clause allowing the club to re-sign him in the future for a pre-agreed fee.

footballtransfers.com

However, the clause cannot be activated until the summer of 2027 at the earliest.

TEAM

Reports suggest the buy-back figure could be around £50m-£60m (with potential add-ons increasing the fee), although exact numbers vary across sources.

Sports Mole +1

There are also indications Liverpool have pre-agreed personal terms with Quansah should they trigger the buy-back, smoothing the path for a return.

TEAMtalk

🧠 Context for the Move

Quansah was a Liverpool academy graduate and made senior appearances before leaving, but opted for more first-team football in Germany.

Football Today

With his development in the Bundesliga and Liverpool’s evolving defensive needs, the idea of bringing him back — especially given future departures or ageing defenders — is being discussed in transfer circles.

TEAMtalk

Bottom line: the Football Insider claim that Liverpool could re-sign Quansah later isn’t unfounded — there is a buy-back clause — but any switch is realistically targeted for 2027 or beyond, not next summer.

BREAKING NEWS The Word From Liverpool Is’ – Arne Slot Sack Update Emerges After Man City Defeat

Published

on

 

Liverpool manager Arne Slot’s job is believed to be safe for now, despite their recent home defeat against Manchester City on Sunday afternoon, according to journalist David Lynch.

 

The Reds looked as though they were heading to victory after Dominik Szboszlai fired in a stunning free-kick from range to put his side in front. Late in the game, Bernardo Silva latched onto a headed throughball by Erling Haaland, poking past Alisson Becker to level the scoring.

 

In the final minutes, Man City were awarded a penalty, and Erling Haaland stepped up to slot into the bottom corner, scoring the winner for Pep Guardiola’s side. City had the ball in the net once again in the dying seconds, but play was brought back for a foul by Szoboszlai, who was sent off after a VAR review.

 

Arne Slot Safe at Liverpool

 

According to journalist Lynch, Slot’s job at Liverpool is safe at the moment, but he doesn’t buy into the idea that he can afford endless poor performances and results.

 

The word from Liverpool is that Arne Slot is safe, but I don’t really buy the idea he can afford endless poor performances and bad results until the end of the season. Today was both, in my opinion. https://t.co/sjMRhibrZK — David Lynch (@davidlynchlfc) February 8, 2026

 

Liverpool are seemingly willing to stick with Slot for now, which might not be a huge surprise after he won the Premier League title last season. Their achievement in the 2024/2025 campaign undoubtedly carries a lot of weight, with Slot having credit in the bank heading into this campaign.

 

Results will undoubtedly have to improve, and with one Premier League win in their previous seven games, the pressure is on Slot to turn things around as soon as possible.

Liverpool need to make a decision and soon, as they are in danger of seeing their season drift away from them. The Reds will have been aiming to lift the Premier League title once again, but now, even Champions League qualification is looking like a difficult task.

 

The mentality to throw away a 1-0 lead against Man City is the biggest disappointment for them, especially as they’ve notoriously been a bogey team for Guardiola at Anfield. The credit in the bank will only last so long, and the board must surely be considering making a change in the near future

If FSG think that 6 wins out of the last 20, a points per game ratio similar to Spurs, behind United, just 2 points ahead of Everton and some dreadful football thrown in means he’s safe, then what would he have to do to be in trouble? FSG must see that he is not the answer. The Kop will decide on Slot’s fate as they did with Hodgson.

 

 

The idea having credit in the bank for having a past title, that’s only a rhyme at Lfc. We saw Mourinho being sacked for far less bad results though he is/was a seasoned manager. Had Slot won the CL? At Lfc it is all about the money. They fabricate reasons just not to sign new players. They do the same not to sack.
