Liverpool Intensifies Preparations with Crucial Training Camp in Germany
On Saturday, Liverpool upped the ante in their preseason workout by taking to the road on bicycles.
As they cycled through German towns in preparation for their match against Karlsruher on Wednesday, Mo Salah and company were wearing helmets.
Even though the start of the season is less than a month away, the Reds have already begun practicing in Germany since their arrival on Saturday.
After a lengthy vacation for international stars, all of the club’s players are again back in training, albeit Fabinho was left out of the 32-man traveling party due to growing interest in his services from Saudi Arabia.
While Jordan Henderson apparently agreed to a deal to relocate to the middle east, he nevertheless made the trip to manager Jurgen Klopp’s own country for the camp.
The Saudi squad led by Nuno Espirito Santo, Al Hilal, has made a sizable offer for the Brazil international midfielder, and Liverpool decided it would be wise to keep him on Merseyside while negotiations for a possible sale are ongoing.
It’s a big deal for Liverpool since Fabinho—often referred to as “The Hoover” by Jurgen Klopp—has been a crucial part of their squad ever since he joined from Monaco in 2018 and has proven to be among the greatest holding midfielders in the league.
But in the latest move of what has been a significant reorganization of the club’s midfield, he is reportedly close to a £40 million deal to leave the team.
Newest hires For Klopp’s team, Wednesday’s match might see the debuts of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai.
While in Germany, Liverpool will also play Furth, with the game beginning at noon on Monday, July 24.
After that, they will go to Singapore to face Leicester and Bayern Munich before beginning their league campaign on August 12 against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Liverpool’s travelling party for tour of Germany: Alisson, Gomez, Van Dijk, Konate, Thiago, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Nunez, Mac Allister, Salah, Adrian, Henderson, Gakpo, Jota, Tsimikas, Robertson, Matip, Bajcetic, Phillips, Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Pitaluga, Bradley, Clark, Doak, Frauendorf, Jaros, Koumas, McConnell, Mrozek, Quansah, Scanlon.
