Wouldn’t mind Senesi as a replacement. Free from Bournemouth. 28 so still a good 2/3 years in him, knows the league, wouldn’t be astronomical wages. Decent on the ball but very much gets his head and body in the way of thing.

Florian Wirtz has informed German national teammates and several of his former Leverkusen teammates, including Jonathan Tah, now at Bayern, that Sebastián Parrilla, Xabi Alonso’s long-time assistant at Leverkusen and most recently part of his staff in Madrid, has very recently reached out to him.

Jeremie Frimpong is also understood to be involved in these exchanges, with direct contact even with Xabi Alonso himself never having stopped, but what elevates this beyond routine contact is the depth and tone of the conversations, Parrilla is said to have asked highly specific and unusually concrete questions about life in Liverpool, the internal dressing room dynamic, the atmosphere around the club on and off the pitch, and even which structural or sporting aspects would require adjustment.

Inside those circles, Florian is increasingly indicating that his preferred outcome would be Xabi Alonso taking over at Liverpool, and the reactivation of contact at assistant level, combined with the detail and intent behind these discussions, is not being interpreted as casual or nostalgic communication. It points far more towards something deliberate, coordinated and quietly progressing in the background, with strong indications that Alonso and his staff are at the very least seriously exploring, if not already preparing for, a potential move into that environment.
 
It seems like going into potentially a new transition period over next 1-2 years.

Salah going
Robbo likely going
Konate likely going
Vvd and Ali in last year of contract.
Jones in last year.

Potentially a new manager coming in and 2 leaders going and 2 more potentially going the summer after.

I said at the beginning of this season that we were in transition but was told (on here) that you can't be after winning a title <laugh>. Clearly we are

Leoni as the 2nd CB. I expect us to buy Quansah back as well (clause comes in next summer I think?)

Yan Diomande appears to be the one we're watching for the RW position

Gordon keeps popping up and looks like Newcastle will face difficulty when they miss out on European football. But since he comments yesterday, he is coming across as even more of a prick than before.

There is also the ambiguity over what Frimpong's real position is as well.

Formation might not stay the same depending if a new manager does come in of course.

Clause is next summer (2027) <ok>
