Injuries in the defense, some young players who have been given more responsibility than they should carry – and modest activity in the transfer market. This week, Ronaldo Araujo is on his way to Anfield, Bradley Barcola wants to go to Liverpool himself, now the final rounds of tough PSG negotiations remain. A Liverpool player who has been out in the shadows goes the other way – towards the exit door of the Reds.
Wataru Endo was on the pitch last season in 12 poor games, only three from the start. It was with Arne Slot at the helm, but Iraola doesn’t seem to have the Japanese international in his plans either.

A number of potentially interested clubs have been contacted to make them aware of the 33-year-old’s availability in the final month of the transfer window.
