Samuel Umtiti has disclosed to close associates that Liverpool are his preference should he choose to depart Camp Nou at the end of the season. The Frenchman has revealed to sources close to him that he might quit Barcelona at the end of the season.

Rio Ferdinand says Manchester United’s hope of qualifying for next season’s UEFA Champions league campaign is not yet up in flames given that a string of matches are still yet to be played while Chelsea are yet to show they can run away with the fourth spot.

Chelsea are interested in Leicester City defender Ben Chilwell. The blues have been heavily linked with the English ace.
The Blues have Alonso and Emerson to rely on in that position, but Chelsea boss Frank Lampard is believed to favor the transfer of Chilwell as he sees the rampaging left-back as an upgrade to what he has on his team.

Liverpool have been the pacesetters this season with eight wins out of eight as the club appears to be in control of the title race. With 30 games remaining, it may seem hasty to proclaim Jurgen Klopp’s side as Champions elect but they certainly look like champions. The German has been able to construct a team that is relentless and capable of defeating different opponents.

Liverpool defender Joel Matip has emerged as a major leader at the back alongside Van Dirk in the past 12 months. The Cameroun defender who arrived from Schalke some few seasons ago has not had the smoothest entry into the first team.

Matip was very much a Klopp signing having starred in Germany in Schalke. Klopp had experienced the defender on full display during his time Dortmund and knew much about him as Schalke are Dortmund bitter rivals.

Virgil van Dijk may definitely not lack for skill or strength, but Daniel has a great belief that leadership has been one of the most important aspects of all the impressive performances which were given by the Dutchman in this season.

It is enough to say, that the number 4 player has not been any less than omnipresent when it comes to the defense of Liverpool that has till now conceded only 18 goals in the 31 games of Premier League. While he has skipped one match of Champions League as the side of Jurgen Klopp have progressed to play the quarter-final with the EC Porto.

Liverpool are currently neck in neck with Manchester City in the race for the League title and the Reds have been able to keep up as a result of their defence. The arrival of Virgil Van Dijk last January has seen the Reds posses one of the best defenders in Europe.

The Dutchman alongside summer signing Allison have been able to change the fortunes of the club with the defence becoming resilient this season. Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold have been able to provide the much-needed stability at the fullback positions.

Liverpool havebegun to prepare for the summer as Jurgen Klopp is keen to strengthen the squad in ahead of next season. One player that the reds are looking at is Real Madrid star Marco Asensio according to reports from England.

The Guardian claims that Liverpool has identified the player as a key transfer target and are looking to make a move for the youngster in the summer. Asensio has not enjoyed the best of seasons at the Bernabeu as he has fallen down the pecking order at the club.

Daniel Agger pinpoints the moment, he believes, has changed his career way 4 years back, with his compulsion to leave Liverpool at Anfield. He has been sticking around with Liverpool as a center-back for 8 long years making 232 appearances and earning a lot of popularity until it so happened that he had to finally bid farewell at an age as young as 31. His reason for this reassignment is his frequent injuries. Agger, in his second Liverpool campaign, where he played 26 times, had to withdraw in the 78th minute sustaining a severe back injury that confined him under surgery until October. He made 153 subsequent appearances post-surgery prior to leaving.

Agger expresses his nostalgia on social media sharing one picture of him defending a ball during the Red's 5-0 pre-season in July 2009. After all, he had contributed in the win over Singapore League Select XI, risking himself by falling under the challenge of Noh Alam sham, subsequently leaving him to miss the first three months of 2009/10 season.

Daniel Agger the former defender Danish has pinpointed some of the moments which 'changed many things' in his career – around five years before the time he left Liverpool. The Danish has spent eight years at Anfield, and in his eight years he made 232 appearances total, and with his performances, he became one of the most popular stars of Kop.

But, during his spell at Anfield, his game was interrupted by injury often, and this is the reason that he was forced to take retirement from the game at the 31 just. He said on this it was important to take retirement at this time "The time when I am still ahead". On the social media, Agger shared one of his picture in which he was seen challenging for a ball during the win of Reds' 5-0 pre-season over Singapore League Select XI in the year 2009.
