Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch react to major confirmed Liverpool news
Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch led the reactions as a new, exciting update emerged from Liverpool ahead of the summer.
Arne Slot has done incredibly well in his first season in England, lifting the Premier League title and leading the race for much of the campaign, with a squad majorly built by Jurgen Klopp.
Trent Alexander-Arnold’s decision to leave Liverpool for Real Madrid has come as a heavy blow before the 2024/25 season has even ended, but new deals for Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah have been celebrated.
Fans are expecting quite the squad overhaul once the summer transfer window swings open, with a number of first-team stars linked with exits, but one player has confirmed his future at Anfield.
Conor Bradley puts pen to paper on new Liverpool deal
Taking to Instagram (17 May), the official club account wrote: “Conor Bradley has today signed a new long-term contract with the Reds,” gaining plenty of attention as he signs until 2029.
Mac Allister and Gravenberch were joined by Cody Gakpo, Wataru Endo, and Jarell Quansah in liking the post as the exciting news continued to gain traction online.

Football Insider verdict
The Reds are in desperate need of a first-team replacement for Alexander-Arnold, with many fans believing that Bradley can fill his shoes after years of learning in his shadow.
However, Football Insider understands that Liverpool have agreed terms to sign Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen ahead of the summer transfer window, having come through Man City’s academy.
| Player | Club | Appearances | Goals | Assists |
| Conor Bradley | Liverpool | 55 | 1 | 10 |
| Jeremie Frimpong | Bayer Leverkusen | 190 | 30 | 44 |
The potential signing of the Dutch full-back is exciting, but the Reds will need to shift a lot of deadweight out of the squad if they are to make more signings that fit Slot’s playing style.
A lack of players to currently fit his playing style makes his team’s charge for the Premier League title all the more impressive, but fans are still expecting more next season.
Liverpool were knocked out of the Champions League and FA Cup at early stages, which threw some doubt over Slot’s reign, but the supporters are fully behind him ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
