All the latest news from Liverpool's rivals as Roberto Firmino gets linked with a Premier League return.

Jürgen Klopp's Liverpool side is now looking ahead to a tough FA Cup clash against Arsenal on Sunday, who are also looking to compete with the Reds for the Premier League title this season. The Reds last lifted the trophy in 2022 and will now be looking to regain the title, after Manchester City secured it last season.

The club currently holds a three-point gap on Aston Villa in second place across the top flight of English football, following a strong festive period that saw them go unbeaten in their five games across all competitions. And Liverpool has now progressed into the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, as well as the knock-out stages of the Europa League, as it now looks to ease past Mikel Arteta's side in the oldest competition in English football this weekend.

Away from the action at Anfield, Klopp and his team will be keeping one eye on their rivals, such as Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea, as each club looks to bolster their squad during the January transfer window. Potentially, that could include a shock return for a Liverpool legend and a big-money signing for Manchester United in defense.

According to talkSPORT, former Liverpool fan favorite Roberto Firmino has been offered to Fulham during the January transfer window, as he looks to part ways with the Saudi Pro League. Firmino, 32, put an end to his eight-year stay at Liverpool this summer following the end of his contract, as he joined both Jordan Henderson and Fabinho in accepting a lucrative offer from the Middle East, joining Al Ahli on a free transfer. The Reds face Fulham in the two-legged Carabao Cup semi-final.

Atalanta sets price for defender Manchester United 'wants'

Serie A club Atalanta has told Erik ten Hag and Manchester United what it will take to sign Giorgio Scalvini in January, according to a report. The 20-year-old defender, who has already been capped by Italy on seven occasions, has enjoyed a rapid rise through the ranks in the top flight of Italian football and is now attracting the interest of elite clubs across Europe, with United being one of them.
