Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho has been informed that he won’t play for the club this season, with Jurgen Klopp urging a loan move.
So this looks like a definite exit for Mama, something has been going on that makes Klopp unhappy with the player, and it must be very significant for him to be insisting he needs to make a move for at least a loan. Quote TIA: " Sakho has dropped down in Klopp’s defensive options since the end of last season, with the German expressing concerns about his attitude. This culminated in the Frenchman being sent home from Liverpool’s pre-season tour of the United States, in a move that proved something of a drastic decision from the manager. Now, Sakho is available on loan, with Klopp supposedly looking for the former Paris Saint-Germain captain to prove his professionalism. But with Sakho having already turned down offers from Stoke City and West Brom, Klopp has made it unequivocally clear that he won’t play for Liverpool in 2016/17." Now the issue is trying to loan him and the player could well decide he doesn't want to go to x club. Its late in the day to try and get this done. |

Lots of situations puzzle me at our club at the moment,, to name a few
1) Sakho - one of 4 top class CBs we have (and we do need all 4) but who seems to be out of favour to the point of him being sent out on loan 2) the LB situation - playing Milner there surely cannot be seen as the long term answer 3) the lack of a DM - which I think will lead to us being less defensively sound no matter how good the rest of the defenders are (and they are) 4) playing Hendo all the time even when off form 5\) Wijnaldum - his less than spectacular start but even so he plays all the time. What is hjis role exactly? 6\) the speculation surrounding Sturridge - altho as I have said I think much of that is media hype 7) having a negative transfer window lay out this window (so far) when we should have lots of money. and going back a few weeks 8) the sale of Joe Allen for so little after he was named in the team of the Euros At the end of the day tho you have to trust Klopp as he is a football man who has shown in the past that he knows what he is doing and will know more about these situations than we do. Also we have gained 4 points out of 6 away at Spurs and Arsenal so far plus we scored 5 at Burton who beat Derby so it is not too bad on the pitch (we will not mention Burnley!!). Also despite the many exits we have still got a great squad with many options so lets try to stay positive - altho obviously there is nothing wrong with expressing our worries and concerns on an internet forum!! |

I think the whole drug issue is what has killed Sakho. Even though he avoided a UEFA charge and suspension I wouldn't he surprised if the club are not happy that he took supplements behind the clubs back. If Sakho believes he done nothing wrong and the eventual ruling proved that then maybe that's the problem.
Either way I think his career at Liverpool is over. |

It seems klopp has got what he needs for this window. I'm concerned we still haven't addressed the defensive issues especially LB. It's clear he prefers milner instead of moreno but milner isn't a LB. Surely there is an actual LB out there who we can get that. What happened to the deal to sign Jonas hector?

Deadline day! Or perhaps more accurate for us, departure day, because I'll be surprised if we bring anyone in ( unless someone out there has news of any stronger rumours than I'm aware of ) .
Alberto to Lazio, Wisdon to Salzburg, and who knows anything about Balotelli and Markovic ( really surprised if he can't find a club ) . Then there's the delicate situation with Sakho; a player who, as well as being currently injured for perhaps another 3 or 4 weeks, doesn't really want to leave anyway. The admin peoples could be having a busy day and they'll do well to sort that lot out. |

Liverpool centre-back Mamadou Sakho has turned down his third loan offer of the transfer window, this time from Turkish side Besiktas.
The Frenchman has been told in no uncertain terms that he won’t feature in Jurgen Klopp‘s first-team squad if he remains on Merseyside this season, with the 49-year-old pushing a loan move. This comes following Klopp’s concerns over Sakho’s attitude, something reminiscent of his time under Carlo Ancelotti and Laurent Blanc at Paris Saint-Germain. Despite this, however, Sakho seems reluctant to leave Liverpool, having already turned down moves to Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion this month. TIA. Didn't realise other managers have had issues with Sakho on attitude, I take back thinking Klopp was being a bit harsh. |

This could of been done weeks ago |

I hope we do not entertain the Sunderland loan link for him though as I've read if Moyes can get Sakho on loan he would do business with Everton for Kone. I don't think we should be helping out our near neighbours or their ex manager and I do not see how a loan to them does anything but that. |

I think it might well have been, Klopp hasn't made any use of him at all since the 'drug' issue, so I'm pretty sure this has been known for quite a while.

A 49 year old player would be doing well to get a squad place.

His been injured. The relationship between player and manager has clearly broken down as his training on his own.
No way is Klopp going to back down now, it would go against all he has stated and would make him look soft, Sakho will be gone soon. Sad really, a good player, but his attitude seems to be rather off. |

OK, give you that one - this time!
![]() He's refused to leave Liverpool now, and some fans are thinking (stupidly) that this means he will be playing for us. He won't, Klopp has been clear from the start that he won't use him this season, and Sakho has had time to try and rectify that, looks like he hasn't.

I remember him storming out after Brendan left him out the squad too, something he later apologised for but yes seems a few managers have had issues with him, from the outside you wouldn't know it but for Jurgen to have taken this stance it must be something....

Balotelli in Nice trying to convince them he's still a footballer player worth paying wages on.
Not seeing much about Markovic though, only some hazy rumours about a loan to Newcastle. For a player who was quite highly rated a few years ago, it's really strange that he's struggling to find himself a club. ( On the subject of Newcastle: rumour is Sissoko could be heading for a medical at Everton. They are putting together a useful selection of players and they now have a very capable manager. Everton could be on course for a very serious season ) |

Alberto has been signed by Lazio for 3m and Andre Wisdom has been loaned to Red Bull Salzburg.

Balotelli has completed a permanent (yes, permanent) transfer to Nice.
Looks like I've just missed out on my Balotelli to stay bet. Oh well, worth it! He's gone on a free, so a £16m loss. |

Lazar Markovic has gone to Sporting Lisbon on loan. I can only assume there was no interest from any club in a purchase, as I can't imagine he has a future at the club. Same goes for Wisdom.

I don't know why Sporting didn't put in a bid for him. They are about £40m in profit this window ( Leicester just paid them £27m for a striker ) , so they have the money. Markovic's reputation has just plummeted over the last year or so.
