Gravenberch shocks Ronald Koeman
Ryan Gravenberch is under threat of being dropped from the Netherlands squad by Ronald Koeman after Liverpool’s new signing refused to join the under-21s.
Netherlands Under-21 boss Michael Reiziger has revealed he told the Reds’ £40million midfielder he had made the “wrong choice” to stay at his new club during the break to get used to life on Merseyside.
Gravenberch was on deadline day to sign from Bayern Munich, becoming the Reds’ fourth signing of an eventful summer, joining just hours before the transfer window closed on Friday night.
It emerged on Monday that the 21-year-old has decided to stay at Liverpool during the break to train at the club’s AXA training center ahead of a possible Premier League debut at Wolves on September 16.
“The player is untouchable”
Mohamed Salah has been described as “untouchable” amid continued speculation surrounding his future. Salah remains a target for Al Ittihad, who are believed to be preparing a fresh bid for the striker after an initial bid of £150m was rejected on Friday.
And reporter Fabrizio Romano said on the DeBrief podcast: “Liverpool are very relaxed about this situation.
“I think the Saudis will come back because it’s normal for them. Let’s go back to the approach to Liverpool, we’ll approach the players’ camp, but I don’t think it’s anything specific or progressive because, frankly, Liverpool. were always clear.
“When we had all these rumors Liverpool always sent the same message: the player is untouchable. Mo Salah will not leave.”
