Liverpool gives permission for medical
When Fabinho was not included in the Liverpool party traveling to Germany, the transfer letter seemed to be on the wall. Sure enough, the club has now given the “green light” to the Brazilian to travel to Saudi Arabia and undergo a medical.
This according to 90min, which reports that Liverpool and Al-Ittihad are now ‘close’ to an agreement. We must be sure that the final details will be settled when Fabinho has already obtained the authorization to go there.
Barring late setbacks, Fabinho will join Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kanté for the new champions. The aim will be to fend off Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr again, although competition is expected to come from many fronts as the league’s aggressive recruitment drive continues apace.
The big question for Liverpool is whether Fabinho will face Jordan Henderson. The captain is still the subject of transfer speculation but Steven Gerrard’s Al-Ettifaq appear unwilling to pay a significant fee for his services. Former Wrexham youngster completes transfer
Wrexham is now all Hollywood. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney funded a revolution that brought the Wales team back into the Football League and the team will face Manchester United in pre-season.
But long before that, Liverpool valued a promising young striker from Wrexham and welcomed him into the academy ranks. Iwan Roberts was then awarded a scholarship and entered the Under-18s.
But after seven U18 Premier League appearances last season, the teenager was released this summer. This has always looked like a likely farewell to the streets, with Roberts being cleared for a trial at Burnley late last year, where he scored for the U21s against Barnsley.
However, the Wrexham native’s next move is for him to return to Wales, with Bala Town completing a free transfer for Roberts.
This reports Cambrian News. Postgraduate care for Academy graduates is a hot topic at the moment, with Trent Alexander-Arnold launching an initiative to help players leave the youth ranks, and everyone in Liverpool will be wishing the 18-year-old good luck in his career. his next career move.
