Carra: Liverpool might not be so far from title...

Sky Sports' Jamie Carragher after Man Utd 0-3 Liverpool:

"Coming into this game, I actually thought it was bigger for Erik ten Hag than it was for Arne Slot.

"For Liverpool having won the first two games, even a draw here wouldn't have been the end of the world. It's historically a tough place to go but Liverpool have really enjoyed themselves here.

"What this does is give the supporters and the players real belief. The majority of the players have won everything there is to win... it gives them real belief in a manager moving forward that maybe this team is closer to challenging for the league title than many people think."

Stefan Bajcetic has joined Red Bull Salzburg on loan until the end of the season.

The midfielder will work under Pep Lijnders, Salzburg's new head coach who was Jurgen Klopp's No 2 at Liverpool.

Bajcetic will join Bobby Clark, the Liverpool midfielder who joined Salzburg on a permanent deal earlier this month, in Austria.

Doak set for Middlesbrough medical ahead of loan

Latest from Sky Sports News' Anthony Joseph:

Middlesbrough look to have won the race to sign Liverpool winger Ben Doak.

It’s understood the 18-year-old is on his way to Teesside to undergo a medical and finalise the paperwork on a season-long loan deal.

Seven clubs were keen to sign the Scotland international in the last week of the window.

Will Chiesa feature against Man Utd?

Liverpool manager Arne Slot:

"He will train with us today. It’s a bigger chance that he is not in the squad than he is, but if injuries come up, we might need him. I don’t expect him to be in, but I cannot guarantee this."

Slot: If the opportunity comes, players can leave

Liverpool manager Arne Slot on potential outgoings:

"It’s the same for incomings, if it’s right for the player and club, we will act. If that opportunity comes for the both of us, it will happen.

"But my main attention is on Man Utd and not on the outgoing players."

Slot on Chiesa: We will build him up in the right way

Liverpool manager Arne Slot:

"One of the first things I noticed here is the players work really hard to achieve their goals so it’s important that the first player you bring in has the same attitude and brings the same culture.

"He works really hard on and off the pitch to try and get the best out of him and he combines this with scoring goals… he’s a really interesting signing.

"But we should take care of him in the beginning because he didn’t train with the team in the last two weeks, but beforehand, he did. He hasn’t played many game minutes yet but we have very good perfoamcnes staff.

"We will build him up in the right way and hopefully see his quality in the future."

Will Mamardashvili arrival affect Kelleher future?

Liverpool manager Arne Slot:

"Maybe, but we have to make decisions as well, it’s not just the player.

"If you work at a club like Liverpool, you need a lot of competition and a lot of good players. Like I said, Mamardashvili is one for the future and we’re really happy with the goalkeeper we have at the moment.

"Caoimhin is one of them, so we’re in a good place when it comes to goalkeepers both now and in the future."

Slot not expecting Liverpool incomings on Deadline Day

Liverpool manager Arne Slot:

"We’re happy with the ones we’ve signed. I’ve said many times, it’s difficult for us to make the team even stronger because we already have a very strong team and if we then find them [new signings], then we are very happy with that.

"Chiesa is someone who can help us for the short term and Mamardashvili is for the long-term future of the club and that’s why we signed him.

"I’m not expecting anything but it’s no different than the days before. If we see an opportunity, we could act but I’m not expecting anything."

Carragher's verdict on Liverpool's window

Sky Sports' Jamie Carragher:

"The two players, they will be pleased to get them in. The goalkeeper is one for the future and is seen as one of the best young goalkeepers all round.

"The Chiesa deal is fantastic. In all the time Mohamed Salah has been at the club, he stands out that much. He's so durable, he never misses games that Liverpool have never had anyone to fill in that role when he's not been there,

"Even last season, and look at the players who played on the right wing - Jota or maybe Luis Diaz - all of Liverpool's forwards seem more comfrortable on that left.

"I think Chiesa will be back-up for Salah, who has one year elft on his contract and we will see how that one will go. But Chiesa, when you go back to the Euros when Italy beat England in the final, he was a £60m to £70m player. He had a big injury after that, but looking at his minutes, he didn't play too bad,.

"It's an absolute snip, a good deal for Liverpool. The way the game is moving on, teams play with three attackers and Liverpool now have six. So it's great back-up, a lot of rotation. Players won't always play 90 minutes.

"I think Liverpool are still short - not in terms of numbers but maybe in terms of quality. At centre-back and in holding midfield. We know Arne Slot feels that because there was a deal that fell down with Martin Zubimendi. But I don't like Liverpool will do anything reckless or panic in the last minute."

Liverpool reject bid from Forest for Kelleher

Latest from Sky Sports News' senior reporter Melissa Reddy:

Nottingham Forest have seen a bid rejected by Liverpool for goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher.

The offer was below their valuation for the 25-year-old and the Reds are unwilling sellers.

Liverpool have signed goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili, but the Georgia international will remain on loan at Valencia this season before joining the Reds next summer.

Asked will Mamardashvili's arrival affect Kelleher's future, Liverpool boss Arne Slot said at his pre-match press conference on Friday: "Maybe, but we have to make decisions as well, it’s not just the player.

"If you work at a club like Liverpool, you need a lot of competition and a lot of good players. Like I said, Mamardashvili is one for the future and we’re really happy with the goalkeeper we have at the moment.

"Caoimhin is one of them, so we’re in a good place when it comes to goalkeepers both now and in the future.

Red Bull Salzburg favourites to sign Liverpool midfielder Bajcetic

Latest from Sky Sports News' Vinny O'Connor:

Red Bull Salzburg are favourites to sign Liverpool midfielder Stefan Bajcetic on loan.

There had been interest from Barcelona but it appears the 19-year-old will now make the season-long switch to the Austrian club, who are managed by ex-Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp's assistant Pep Lijnders.

Should the deal go through it appears unlikely that Liverpool will bring in a replacement as cover for their midfield options.

Liverpool sign Chiesa from Juventus

Liverpool have completed the signing of Federico Chiesa from Juventus in a deal worth £12.5m.

The fee for the winger is £10m up front, plus £2.5m in add-ons, which are dependent on Liverpool winning the Premier League and Champions League.

The 26-year-old has signed a four-year contract at Anfield and it is understood the Italy international is on the same wages he was on at Juventus.

It is understood the interested clubs are from the Premier League and Championship.

Liverpool have given the green light for Doak to leave on loan and are weighing up the best option for his development.

Salah 'not thinking about contract' at Liverpool

Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah insists he is not thinking about his future with just one year left on his Reds contract.

The Egyptian winger has been speaking exclusively to Sky Sports ahead of the big Super Sunday clash at arch-rivals Man Utd and the 32-year-old claims he is not even pondering the future, instead just taking things "one day at a time".

"I just came for a season and was like: 'I have one year left so just let's enjoy it. Don't think about the contract now, don't think about anything now, let's just enjoy it.'

"I don't want to think about next year or about the future. Let's enjoy the last year and we'll see.

"Every week that's the most important thing, just think one game at a game. Feel good to be here and that's it."
