With the international break done and dusted, Liverpool will look to build some momentum in the Premier League and Cup competitions with the fixtures set to pile up.
On that note, here's a look at the latest Liverpool news and rumors as of September 12, 2021.
Harvey Elliot gets a token of approval from teammate
Fabinho has heaped praise on Liverpool teammate Harvey Elliot after the midfielder’s impressive performances so far this season.
Elliot, who was on loan at Blackburn Rovers last season, was not expected to feature prominently this season. However, Jürgen Klopp has given the former Fulham ace a sustained run in the team after he impressed in pre-season.
Elliot’s teammate Fabinho has claimed that the England starlet plays with a lot of personality and quality on the pitch.
"Harvey Elliott is a positive so far, personally. He has done really well and he played a big game against Chelsea. He has a lot of personality and a lot of quality," Fabinho said.
Klopp not fussed about other clubs spending a lot of money
Liverpool signed only one player in the summer transfer window, and that has raised questions about whether they can challenge for the title.
The Reds’ transfer business fades when compared to what the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United, and Chelsea did last summer. Even Arsenal, without European football, spent over £100 million on transfers.
When Klopp was asked about Liverpool’s rivals spending money, the German said:
“I honestly could not care less what other clubs are doing. “I signed up for this way when I arrived here. “In that time, we were quite successful... We won a couple of trophies, exactly with that way.”
Liverpool target set to extend his deal with Fiorentina
Dusan Vlahovic is set to extend his stay at Fiorentina despite interest from several clubs.
Liverpool are among several clubs interested, but the Serbian has revealed that talks are on-going with Fiorentina and his representatives to extend his stay in Florence.
“I said many times that I decided to stay in Florence, nobody else had to decide for me. When the coach arrived, and the squad we put together, it’s good. At the end of the season, we will see if it proved to be the right decision, but I followed my heart. I am young, my moment will come and I just need to continue working like this. We are talking [regarding an extension], that is all I can say.”
