Liverpool will be a man for their first Premier League match of the season, while Bournemouth makes the long trip to Anfield and the Reds start their deficiency defense under Arne Slot
Ben Doak will not appear before Liverpool tonight if he is approaching a move to their opponents Bournemouth. The parties are in the opening Premier League match of the season in Anfield.
The Cherries close a £ 25 million deal for the Scotland International after seeing the competition from Porto and Stuttgart. DOAK, 19, would like to stay in the Premier League who was on loan last season in Championship Club Middlesbrough.
Liverpool paid £ 600,000 to sign the talented prospect of Celtic in 2022 with great hope for him under Jurgen Klopp. But injuries and the quality of players have suppressed his development for him and he will now regularly look for first team football on the south coast.
The deal could cause a chain reaction of deals with Bournemouth's Dango Ouattara ready to join Brentford for a maximum of £ 42.5 million. That could see the bees, part of the roads with Yoane Wissa that did not train with the club while joining Newcastle.
Unfortunately for Liverpool, Wissa is not seen by the Magpies as a replacement for Alexander Isak. The Reds saw a bid throw back for the Sweden Vooruit, which continues to train separately from the first team of Newcastle.
In his press conference prior to the Premier League opener of Newcastle against Aston Villa, Eddie Howe suggested that there was no way in the future of the 25-year-old.
“Alex's situation has been unchanged for a while, and that will remain the case,” he said. However, that did not prevent a barrage of questions.
“I had a great relationship with Alex,” he said. “You need that with every player. I really take that relationship in that relationship. I have to work very closely with the player to his advantage.”
Asked if a new offer for Isak was placed, Howe replied: “No, there was no change, all my focus was on training and villa and the front of the transfer.”
Asked if the star attacker could stay in St James' park after the transfer deadline, he said: “At the moment I would say yes, but I have not had a change in feeling all summer. He has contracted us, but it is out of my hands.”
