Newcastle United and Liverpool played out a 2-2 draw in their Premier League encounter. Liverpool manager opted to start 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha on the right wing, with Cody Gakpo on the left, as the club continues its search for a replacement for Mo Salah.

Liverpool's attempts to sign PSG's Bradley Barcola and Brighton's Yankuba Minteh have failed, with a £50m bid for the latter being rejected this week. Despite these transfer challenges, the Liverpool squad is described to be in a 'transition phase' with the manager stating they will 'go for it' in the current match. esporist.org
