Jurgen Klopp sends encouraging message to Liverpool fans over Mohamed Salah exit

Jurgen Klopp has insisted that Mohamed Salah is "100 per cent committed" to Liverpool amid transfer interest from the Saudi Pro League. Sources have confirmed to 90min that Salah and Paul Pogba are the Saudi Pro League's marquee targets as they look to recruit the best players in world Football , with champions Al Ittihad prepared to offer Salah that exceed what Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are earning at Al Nassr and Inter Miami respectively. Liverpool have made it clear that they have no intention of parting ways with Salah, who only signed a new contract last summer to commit his future to Anfield until 2025. But Al Ittihad feel there's a chance to get the Egyptian away from Merseyside, and may yet try to tempt the Reds into selling with a sizeable offer. Jordan Henderson and Fabinho have both departed for Saudi Arabia this summer, to Al Ettifaq and Al Ittihad, but speaking exclusively to Sky Sports , Klopp suggested the noise around Salah is nothing more t

There’s more to quitting than being quiet about it – Mary T. O’Sullivan

Image
By Mary T. O’Sullivan, MSOL “Gallup’s 2023 State of the Global Workplace Report says almost one in five employees engage in loud quitting — while disengaged quiet quitters made up 59% of the workforce.” Fox Business             Have you ever heard of “loud quitting ”?  Until recently, that moniker remained relatively unknown, although it’s hardly new. And then there’s the old, familiar process of “quick quitting ”, being fed up enough to turn in your keys and badge and just walk away without any notice whatsoever. Of course, by now, we are all familiar with the current HR phenomenon known as “ quiet quitting , where unhappy employees slowly but surely withdraw themselves from the workplace as long as possible, or until such time as a better offer comes along.  These folks hunker down and “work to contract” never lifting an unnecessary finger at work for any reason. What do these present-day phenomena have in common? Look no further than the “ quiet quitters”. Their dis

Newcastle agree fee with Chelsea over Lewis Hall

Newcastle United have agreed a deal with Chelsea to sign England Under-19 international Lewis Hall, 90min understands. After seeing talks over a loan move to Crystal Palace fall through, Chelsea have decided to cash in on the 18-year-old academy graduate, who spent his youth teams days playing in midfield but is comfortable at left-back. 90min understands that Newcastle have agreed to a package which could be worth up to £35m for Chelsea, with Hall set to move to St James' Park on an initial loan deal which includes an obligation for a permanent move next summer. Newcastle pushed for a loan deal amid concerns over Financial Fair Play and will now be able to add Hall to next season's accounts instead. As for Chelsea, because the move comes with a guaranteed sale, the money can be included in this summer's finances.

Aymeric Laporte assessing options after Man City receive bid from Al Nassr

Manchester City have received an offer from Al-Nassr for centre-back Aymeric Laporte, but the player is still assessing his options , 90min understands. The 29-year-old, who signed from Athletic Club in 2018 for a club-record £57m fee at the time, has been a key part of Pep Guardiola's side in recent years, but has fallen down the pecking order over the last year or so.
