Liverpool have been warned they should not let Dominik Szoboszlai drift too close to the final stage of his contract as Real Madrid interest continues to circulate. His current deal runs to 2028, but concern is growing around the two-year mark. Gary McAllister said “alarm bells” should ring once a player drops under two years and praised Szoboszlai as a game-changing, high-output midfielder. The pressure is now on Liverpool to protect a key asset before outside interest grows stronger.

March 2026

Craig Burley launched a fierce criticism of Florian Wirtz, calling the Liverpool midfielder a lightweight and questioning his end product after another disappointing display. The ESPN pundit even suggested the club should consider selling him if he cannot deliver in his preferred central role. Burley argued Wirtz has not shown the dribbling, passing or conviction that defined his Leverkusen form and said his shift to the left wing is not a lasting answer. Despite Liverpool’s patience and a contract running to 2030, doubts remain over how he fits into Arne Slot’s system.

February 2026

irgil van Dijk said Dominik Szoboszlai could develop into a leadership figure capable of captaining Liverpool, with the midfielder’s form and versatility standing out during an inconsistent season. Szoboszlai has reached 10 goals this season, scoring again in Liverpool’s 3-0 FA Cup win over Brighton, and has filled multiple roles including a stint at right-back. With uncertainty around Robertson’s long-term future, Van Dijk said Szoboszlai is “leading by example” but still has steps to make as a leader.

Haaland Wants Late Cherki Goal Given Instead of Szoboszlai Red Card

Erling Haaland
January 2026

Erling Haaland criticised the late VAR decision that disallowed Rayan Cherki’s stoppage-time goal at Anfield and instead sent off Dominik Szoboszlai, arguing officials should have allowed the goal rather than issuing a three-match ban. With Liverpool pushing forward, Cherki released Haaland through on goal. Szoboszlai pulled Haaland back, Haaland then pulled Szoboszlai as the ball trickled in. VAR ruled the goal out for Haaland’s foul and dismissed Szoboszlai for denying a clear chance earlier in the move. Haaland said he felt bad for Szoboszlai and preferred the goal to stand.

Virgil van Dijk
January 2026

Van Dijk was blamed for Bournemouth’s opener after misplaying a long ball, as Liverpool’s defensive chaos and a delayed substitution after Gomez collided with Alisson contributed to a 3-2 defeat despite a brief comeback. Scott collected Van Dijk’s mistake and crossed for Evanilson. Gomez went off injured, but Endo’s entry was delayed and Liverpool played short-handed, conceding again. Liverpool rallied through Van Dijk and Szoboszlai, but Bournemouth’s late winner sealed it.

Slot expects Isak back this season despite fractured fibula

Alexander Isak
December 2025

Record signing Alexander Isak fractured his fibula and damaged his ankle while scoring in Liverpool’s win over nine-man Spurs, capping a turbulent start to life at Anfield following a disrupted pre-season and just as he seemed to be regaining sharpness from the bench. Slot condemned Van de Ven’s “reckless” tackle, arguing it would cause serious injury most times, and confirmed surgery plus “a couple of months” out but insisted Isak will still feature later this season, even as Liverpool also cope with Salah at AFCON, Szoboszlai’s suspension and fitness doubts over Bradley and Gakpo.

Konate’s nightmare at Elland Road piles pressure on Liverpool defence

Ibrahima Konate
December 2025

Liverpool twice surrendered the lead in a chaotic 3-3 draw at Leeds, with Ibrahima Konate involved in two goals conceded. Hugo Ekitike’s quickfire brace and a late Dominik Szoboszlai strike were not enough to secure three points in a fragile title defence. Konate conceded a penalty by clumsily bringing down Wilfried Gnonto, then backed off Anton Stach for Leeds’ second before ducking under a late corner that Ao Tanaka buried in stoppage time. Arne Slot admitted the centre-back has been “a bit too much at the crime scene” this season.

Hoeness tears into Liverpool “chiefs and no workers” crisis

Uli Hoeness
December 2025

Bayern figure Uli Hoeness has blasted Liverpool’s season as “catastrophic” despite around £450 million spent, claiming the squad is packed with superstars who lack balance and work ethic, leaving new signing Florian Wirtz starved of the ball and unable to influence games. Hoeness argues Liverpool have “only chiefs and no workers” and even quipped they may soon need “five balls” because attacking stars refuse to share possession, singling out Salah and Szoboszlai as examples while portraying Wirtz as a playmaker trapped inside a dysfunctional structure.
