Klopp’s secret Tchouameni trip
Aurelien Tchouameni looks set to turn down Liverpool’s transfer offer despite Jurgen Klopp’s secret trip to try and convince him.

And it seems Liverpool will have to now move on to other targets, with Tchouameni said to have his heart set on a move to Madrid.

Diaz sends emotional message
Liverpool forward Luis Diaz has said “dreams come true” after an incredible start to life at Anfield following his January transfer from Porto.
The Colombia winger joined the Reds in the January transfer window for a fee that could rise to £50million with add-ons – and he’s already looking like an inspired signing. He made an immediate impact at the club, registering four goals and three assists in the Premier League following his move.
Diaz has now opened up about his time in Liverpool so far, and in an emotional message to fans has said that since moving to the club he has been “living what I have deeply wished for all my life”.

But a move would have a number of similarities with Emre Can’s Liverpool departure in 2018, when he let his contract run down and signed for Juventus.
The German midfielder said he wanted to “win titles” when he made the move – but may have actually ended up with more medals had he stayed a Liverpool player.
