da cassino online： Glasgow Rangers head into the final few days of the transfer window with pressure to bring in another player or two who could inject some quality into the team.

da apostaganha： Philippe Clement has failed to really move on any of the club’s big earners except for Connor Goldson and Sam Lammers, as several would rather see out their lucrative contracts at Ibrox rather than take a pay cut elsewhere.

It appears as though the manager doesn’t have many funds to work with until these players are moved on, having to potentially rely on loans and free transfers between now and the end of the window.

The Light Blues have been linked with their fair share of targets over the previous few weeks, but it looks like one player won't be making the move to Scotland…

Latest on Rangers move for Gustavo Puerta

A couple of weeks ago, Danish news outlet Tipbaldet claimed that the Gers were keen on signing midfielder Gustavo Puerta from Bayer Leverkusen.

Blackburn Rovers, Anderlecht, and Danish side Brondby were also keen on signing the Colombian this summer, with Anderlecht looking to secure a season-long loan deal with an option to buy for €6m (£5m).

Journalist Alan Nixon (via the Daily Record) states that Leverkusen have reportedly received an offer worth around £3m for the midfielder, which could signal the end of the Light Blues' interest in him.

It is Brondby who has made the offer and there is little hope of Rangers matching it. The only chance Clement may be able to secure a deal this summer is if Xabi Alonso would prefer the player to go out on loan to gain much-needed game time.

Gustavo Puerta’s season in numbers

The Colombian starlet may have been part of the Leverkusen side which won the Bundesliga title unbeaten in 2023/24, but he made just seven appearances in the competition.

Although making brief cameos, Puerta did demonstrate why Leverkusen signed him in the first place. In the top flight, he finished with a 95% pass success rate, won 67% of his total duels and succeeded with 100% of his dribbles during his time on the pitch.

He was offered more chances in Europe, making three appearances in the Europa League for the German side.

When compared to his positional peers in the competition, Puerta ranked in the top 3% for attempted passes and pass success rate per 90, while also ranking in the top 9% for successful take-ons per 90, demonstrating his excellent passing range on the continent.

There is no doubt that Clement needs a number six to come into the starting XI and dominate possession during games, dictating the play, which could allow the likes of Mohamed Diomande and Connor Barron the licence to push forward.

Puerta would be an ideal signing, but it looks like this one might just slip through the net. Could the Belgian have a player in his squad who perhaps fits the profile of the Colombian and might be able to replicate his skills as a number six?

Leon King has usually performed as a centre-back for the Ibrox side, but he tends to push into the midfield when representing Scotland U21s and this could be an indication that Clement must experiment with the 20-year-old.

Leon King’s Rangers statistics

The promising centre-back made his first team debut for the Gers during Steven Gerrard’s tenure, playing against Falkirk in the League Cup aged just 16 at the time.

There was no doubting his potential, something which Gerrard was keen to develop, and he even made his Premiership debut in the penultimate match of the season against Livingston.

The following campaign saw King make six first appearances under Giovanni Van Bronckhorst as he was eased into the first-team setting and these would stand him in good stead ahead of the 2022/23 season.

Injuries to John Souttar and Ben Davies saw King called into the starting XI to partner Connor Goldson, both domestically and in the Champions League group stages.

It was a baptism of fire for the youngster, but given his inexperience at this level, he did acquit himself fairly well.

Across 15 league games, King achieved a pass success rate of 88%, along with being dribbled past just 0.3 occasions and winning 67% of his ground duels, solid statistics for someone who was thrown into the deep end.

Former Rangers defender Alan Hutton hailed King in the summer of 2022, just before his breakthrough season, saying: “I think when I did watch him last season, he was like a big Rolls Royce, very elegant on the ball. He came out, kept possession and looked very comfortable for someone of such a young age.”

These traits could see him move slightly further forward into a midfield slot, one that he is comfortable doing for the national team.

During the U21s European Championship qualifying group, King played in the heart of the midfield four times, even grabbing an assist against Hungary in a 3-1 victory.

With these performances in mind, Clement could trial the youngster in a midfield slot across the next few week, especially if he isn’t able to sign another player for that position.

Loan moves are all fine and well, but they eventually return to their parent clubs at the end of the season. King has shown he can become a regular member of the first-team squad, as evidenced during the first half of 2022/23.

The Belgian manager seems intent on developing young talent and allowing them the opportunity to shine. While the pressure may be on for him to succeed this season, given the nature of his squad, it could well be a transitional campaign.

If the 20-year-old – who is yet to play in midfield at senior level for his club – gets a chance to showcase his true worth, he could be Clement’s own version of Puerta, without a shadow of a doubt.

Will the 6 foot titan get that opportunity, however? Only time will tell.

Only a victory in Melbourne will keep the Ashes alive heading into the new year

Andrew McGlashan24-Dec-2021There is a chance that 2021 finishes as a record-breaking year for Joe Root, and record-equalling for England, but for significantly different reasons.Root currently sits fourth in the list for most runs scored by a batter in a calendar year, and needs 159 to go ahead of Mohammad Yousuf’s golden 2006 mark. His team, meanwhile, is one defeat away from equalling the record for most Test losses in a calendar year, which is currently at nine, registered by Bangladesh in 2003.Related

Zak Crawley's Ashes SOS – why England have kept the faith

'Not good enough' – Root admits anger at England's results

Has cricket turned into an obligation for England?

The two records are closely linked. If Root achieves his in a single innings – ideally the first time England bat in the match – it will give them a chance of avoiding the second. Having not passed 300 yet in the series, where they trail 2-0 after two games, they have to put up a total that will pressure Australia, even if the MCG pitch is on the livelier side, more than seen of late.”It’s been very enjoyable personally, in terms of batting, spending time out there making some big scores, but nothing compares to winning,” Root said of personal success amid a struggling team. “If I perform well in the last three Tests here, it gives us a good chance of getting the scores on the board to win games.”Root has twice fallen after passing 50 in this series, nicking Cameron Green on both occasions, with England having produced just four half-centuries – the other two coming from Dawid Malan. Root carries a huge burden in this fragile batting order and desperately needs others around him to lift their games. There are likely to be changes with Zak Crawley and Jonny Bairstow in the mix with Root imploring his fellow batters to keep it simple.”It’s asking all of our batters, whoever it is that does play, to do basic things very well. Give yourself an opportunity to go and make big runs and build big partnerships,” he said. “I bang on about that all the time but it’s the fundamentals of batting: be willing to concentrate for long periods of time, being able to wear bowlers down, take themselves deep into an innings and make those big scores that put you ahead of the game.”If you look at these last two games, it’s been mental [lapses], not through lack of confidence or anything like that, but understanding of conditions and sniffing the danger. I think we can be a bit smarter about that.”He is also willing to carry that responsibility himself as he continues to search for a first Ashes hundred in Australia, having spent time working in the nets at the MCG to ensure he knows where his off stump is, so he can judge what to play and what to leave.”That’s the most frustrating thing on my part, an experienced batter shouldn’t be making that mistake twice,” he said. “Hence why I’ve been doing the work and I expect better from myself.”Despite the continued batting problems, it was the bowling that dominated the fallout from Adelaide after Root’s comments that he felt England got the lengths wrong, which led to Ricky Ponting questioning why he did not push the bowlers into changing.Does Joe Root have a big score in him to finish the year?•AFP

“I like to give our bowlers, especially the senior ones, that responsibility,” Root said. “They have more than 300 Tests between them and over 1000 wickets, and they know what they are doing. It’s working alongside them, it’s not a dictatorship. Every now and again, you don’t always agree on everything and that’s fine. Ultimately, it’s about coming to a point where you get the results we want. Unfortunately, in the last game, we didn’t quite get there.”There has been differing reaction from within the England camp with Stuart Broad saying in his column, which came out while the second Test was still progress, that the economy rates would have “gone through the roof” by bowling fuller, while in the James Anderson suggested there could some validity in the criticism, although he referenced data that showed Australia were no fuller.”We have to be better at assessing it during a game,” Anderson said. “We can’t just go after the game ‘we should have bowled fuller’. If we are bowling too short, at lunch we need information back, saying we need to push our lengths up. We have to be a bit more proactive at that too as a whole group.”In Australia, you have to hit the pitch hard and bowl every ball as if your life depends on it, as fast as you can, because you don’t get anything here for just putting it on a length. You have to put your back into it. It is a balancing act to make sure it is full enough but not floaty. Look at the numbers. They show both sides bowled similar lengths. They did not bowl any fuller than us. But it is a case of the difference in techniques of the batters. It must be, because they took 20 wickets and we didn’t.”All parts of England’s game are going to have to work harmony in Melbourne if this series is to be alive going into 2022, but it could well be Root who has to make the difference for them in the end.

Technical director Tim Steidten brought in defender Max Kilman, winger Crysencio Summerville, centre-back Jean-Clair Todibo, forward Niclas Fullkrug, Brazilian starlet Luis Guillherme, right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, midfielder Guido Rodriguez and back-up goalkeeper Wes Foderingham to the London Stadium earlier this window, but reports suggest they could still bring in a few more.

West Ham are reportedly locked in talks over a deal for PSG midfielder Carlos Soler, and Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth says another forward coming in is "definitely one to watch", depending on outgoings.

"With regards to forwards, it will probably depend on departures in that area," said Sheth to GiveMeSport earlier this week.

"We hear a lot about Maxwel Cornet and Danny Ings potentially leaving. Would that be enough for them to go into the market to bring in another player? So it's definitely one to watch."

The Irons have spared no expense in backing Lopetegui over what has been an exciting transfer window for West Ham, and it is believed that Sunderland star Jack Clarke is another player on Steidten's radar.

The former Tottenham outcast has been a revelation for Sunderland since swapping north London for The Stadium of Light. Last season, Clarke racked up 15 goals and four assists for the Black Cats in all competitions, over what was a career-best campaign for him.

West Ham eye Jack Clarke move as Sunderland negotiate new deal

The 23-year-old's contract expires in 2026, though, and it is believed Sunderland are attempting to tie him down as they try to ward off suitors.

According to a report in the print edition of The Sun this week (via WHZ), West Ham are eyeing a move for Clarke as Sunderland try to agree a fresh contract for him, but it is unclear whether Lopetegui's side could tempt either his club or the player.

He'd apparently cost around £25 million to prise away from Sunderland, which could be considered a bargain, given his reputation, age and form right now.

"I've always been looking up to Jack," said ex-Spurs teammate Romain Mundle.

"We love each other and he's an unbelievable player, a player that I watch in training every day. He's a perfect attacker to look up to and learn from. He helped me settle in with the club. I talk to Jack daily. He's always been there for me and taken me under his wing. He's there to guide me. I'm there looking at him in training and learning off him as well. I couldn't think of a better example to learn off."

O clube chega em 2022 embalado pela campanha histórica na última temporada. Além de terminar o Brasileirão na quarta colocação, conquistando uma classificação inédita à fase de grupos da Libertadores, a equipe também foi semifinalista na Copa do Brasil. Este ano, a expectativa da diretoria é de consolidar o projeto de evolução do clube no cenário nacional.

– Acima de tudo, vamos continuar prezando pela responsabilidade financeira, com muita cautela, mas sem abrir mão da ambição em buscar os resultados dentro de campo. Sabemos que será uma temporada muito desafiadora para a história da instituição, por isso trabalhamos para preservar este momento tão especial e marcante para o torcedor – afirmou o Vice-Presidente de Futebol do Fortaleza, Alex Santiago.

Em 2022, o Tricolor gastou cerca de R$ 20 milhões em contratações. Nenhum clube do Nordeste gastou mais em reforços que o Leão do Pici. Apesar de nomes importantes terem saído, como o atacante David, vendido ao Internacional por quase R$ 11 milhões, e o volante Ederson, que pertencia ao Corinthians, a equipe buscou nomes no mercado para reformular o elenco e seguir competitivo.

– No ano passado nós já estávamos mapeando e monitorando os jogadores certos para reforçar o nosso plantel. O Moisés, que veio da Ponte Preta, nós acompanhamos durante toda a Série B. Outro fator importante para concretizar as negociações é a credibilidade e seriedade da gestão, que permitiu a chegada de nomes como o Renato Kayzer, por exemplo, com mercado em outros clubes importantes do cenário nacional – explicou Santiago.

Para o setor ofensivo, a equipe aprimorou as opções com as chegadas, além de Kayzer, do argentino Silvio Romero, que veio do Independiente-ARG, além do já citado Moisés, nome que disputou a segunda divisão pela Ponte Preta no ano passado.

Em outros setores, o clube exerceu a compra em definitivo do zagueiro Marcelo Benevenuto e do volante Matheus Jussa junto a Botafogo e Internacional, respectivamente. Os estrangeiros Brayan Ceballos (zagueiro colombiano vindo do Quíndio-COL) e Anthony Landázuri (lateral-direito equatoriano que estava no Independiente del Valle-EQU) completam a lista de reforços.

كشفت تقارير صحفية تطورات تخص ثنائي فريق برشلونة، رونالد أراوخو ورافينها، وموقفهما من المشاركة ضد أوساسونا يوم الخميس المقبل في بطولة الدوري الإسباني.

ويلتقي الفريقان على ملعب “مونتجويك” في مباراة مؤجلة من الجولة السابعة والعشرين من الليجا.

وكان من المفترض إقامة المباراة قبل أسبوعين، ولكن تقرر تأجيلها بسبب وفاة طبيب الفريق الأول لنادي برشلونة.

وقرر الاتحاد الإسباني لكرة القدم إعادة جدولة مباراة برشلونة وأوساسونا حيث ستُقام يوم الخميس المقبل، رغم احتجاج الناديين خاصة البرسا لتواجد أكثر من لاعب في المعسكر الدولي.

وتتركز مشكلة برشلونة أكثر في الثنائي رونالد أراوخو ورافينها، حيث سيخوضان مباراة في إطار تصفيات قارة أمريكا الجنوبية المؤهلة إلى كأس العالم 2026.

ويلتقي منتخب أوروجواي مع بوليفيا قبل ساعات من مباراة الأرجنتين والبرازيل، فجر الأربعاء المقبل.

وذكرت صحيفة “سبورت” الإسبانية أنه على الرغم من أن مشاركة أراوخو ورافينها في مباراة برشلونة وأوساسونا تبدو مستبعدة إلى حد كبير، فإن المدرب هانز فليك قد يعتمد في نهاية الأمر عليهما، على الأقل للدخول في القائمة.

وأفادت أن الخطة تتمثل في عودة رافينها وأراوخو إلى إسبانيا على متن طائرة خاصة رفقة بقية اللاعبين الدوليين من أمريكا الجنوبية من ريال مدريد وأتلتيكو مدريد، وهم راؤول خيمينيز، فيدي فالفيردي، مولينا، دي بول، أنخيل كوريا، جوليان ألفاريز، إندريك وفينيسيوس جونيور.

وكون مباراة بوليفيا وأوروجواي ستُقام قبل ساعات قليلة من لقاء الأرجنتين والبرازيل في بوينس آريس، فإن ذلك سيمنح فرصة لـ أراوخو للسفر إلى العاصمة الأرجنتينية لانتظار الرحلة الجماعية المرتقبة.

وسيتوجه أراوخو ورافينها إلى برشلونة حيث يصلان إلى العاصمة الكتالونية مساء الأربعاء، رغم أنهما لن يشاركان مع بقية زملائهما في الحصة التدريبية الأخيرة، ولكن ربما يحصلان على فرصة التواجد على مقاعد البدلاء ضد أوساسونا للمشاركة حال الضرورة.

da 888casino： Everton have submitted a £6.8m offer to sign a 22-year-old defender this summer, according to a fresh transfer rumour that has emerged from Italy.

Everton transfer news

da imperador bet： The Blues have already got some important and impressive summer transfer business over the line, snapping up the likes of Jake O'Brien, Iliman Ndiaye and Jesper Lindstrom, the latter of whom has arrived on loan from Juventus.

That being said, Everton have lost key midfielder Amadou Onana to Aston Villa, which acts as a clear blow, and the likes of Jordan Pickford, Jarrad Branthwaite and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have been linked with moves away from Goodison Park throughout the summer.

That highlights the importance of making further signings between now and the end of the transfer window, with various names emerging as reported targets in recent days. Two of those are midfield pair Kalvin Phillips and Richard Rios, of Manchester City and Palmeiras respectively, with the Blues reportedly in pole position to sign the former over Villa.

It does appear as though plenty of focus is on finding a replacement for Onana, with the Belgian such an influential figure in the middle of the park before his exit, and Strasbourg midfielder Habib Diarra is considered another option for Sean Dyche.

In attack, a successor to Calvert-Lewin may also need to be found, or even someone who can provide even more competition for him, and Tammy Abraham has been linked with joining Everton, too. He could leave Roma this summer, following three years with the Serie A giants.

Everton submit bid for 22 y/o international

According to a report from Corriere dello Sport on Saturday [via Goodison News], Everton have made a £6.8m offer for Hellas Verona right-back Jackson Tchatchoua, looking to get a summer move over the line. The bid also includes two bonuses.

The Serie A side are holding out for £8.5m, however, as they prove to be stubborn when it comes to their player, whose current deal doesn't expire until 2027.

Tchatchoua could be exactly what Dyche is looking for at right-back ahead of the new Premier League season, representing a long-term option who could also arrive as a starter from the off. As things stand, Seamus Coleman, Ashley Young and Nathan Patterson are the choices in that position, with the first two ageing individuals who could be squad options instead of key men moving forward.

The young defender made 26 appearances in the league for Verona last season, 19 of which were starts, and he has also won two caps for Cameroon at international level, showing that he can be trusted early on in his career.

It now looks to be a case of whether Everton are willing to up the amount they bid for Tchatchoua, with Verona holding firm and ensuring they get as much as possible for a prized player. He could be worth every penny if the Blues do bid £8.5m, given the number of years left in him.

> Veja quanto o Palmeiras faturou em premiação com Abel Ferreira

Furacão sai na frente no placar, mas Verdão se recupera e busca empate

O começo do primeiro tempo indicou o que se esperava com as duas equipes se estudando, mas logo aos três minutos o ataque palmeirense mudou a expectativa. Veiga achou um belo passe para Atuesta, cara a cara com o goleiro Santos, desperdiçar a oportunidade de abrir o placar. A bola ficava mais em posse do time casa, que não conseguia ameaçar o desatento adversário.

Mas em uma bola parada aos 18 minutos as coisas mudaram. Em um escanteio controverso, depois de um desvio no meio da área, Terans apareceu livre para mandar para o gol. O bandeira indicou impedimento, porém, com a ajuda do VAR, a arbitragem validou corretamente o tento do Furacão. A abertura do placar fez com o Alviverde, que só tocava bola de lado, fosse buscar o empate.

Em mais um ótimo passe de Veiga, ele achou Dudu, que cruzou rapidamente para a área, lá dentro Rony tentou o chute e Santos defendeu. Na cobrança de escanteio, depois de bate e rebate, a bola sobrou para Jailson que, de bico, chutou bonito para o gol e empatou o placar aos 27 minutos. Quando foi ao ataque, a equipe de Abel Ferreira conseguiu ameaçar e chegar perto da rede.

Ainda assim, alguns vacilos defensivos e desatenções quase levaram o Athletico-PR ao segundo gol. Em cruzamento para a área, aos 42 minutos, Thiago Heleno subiu mais alto do que a defesa e cabeceou forte por cima, perto do gol. Em resposta, aos 47, Rony arriscou um bonito chute de fora da área e acabou acertando a trave, no que poderia ter sido o segundo alviverde.

Athletico consegue o gol para a vantagem, mas Palmeiras empata no fim

No retorno do intervalo, o Athletico-PR colocou o time mais à frente, com os laterais bem avançados, o que jogou o Palmeiras para trás, mas que tinha espaço para o contra-ataque. Aos 11 minutos, Abel tirou Atuesta e colocou Wesley. Aos 14, em boa trama pelo lado direito do ataque, Dudu cruzou para a área, mas Rony não conseguiu completar, assim como Wesley, sem goleiro.

Com a entrada de Wesley, o Verdão parecia conseguir levar o time mais ao ataque, sem ficar preso na defesa, mas esse bom momento não foi aproveitado e o jovem acabou ‘sumindo”. Em mais um momento de desatenção dos palmeirenses, Abner cruzou e Erick desviou para uma linda defesa de Weverton. Em seguida, em cobrança de escanteio, Thiago Heleno resvalou na bola e, no segundo pau, Léo Cittadini desperdiçou oportunidade de cabeça.

Em mais um momento que se desligou do jogo, aos 30 minutos, o Palmeiras acabou sofrendo o segundo. Veiga afastou mal a bola da frente da área, Marlos recebeu dentro da área, cortou a marcação e mandou uma bomba para a rede, sem chance para Weverton. Pouco depois, Gabriel Veron cruzou para a área, a defesa rebateu e a bola sobrou para Veiga, que tentou de cabeça, sem perigo.

Na reta final do segundo tempo, Abel sacou Rony e colocou Rafael Navarro para ser um centroavante de fato. Aos 38 minutos, ele ajudou em um roubada de bola no meio e Wesley lançou Veron, que tocou na saída do goleiro, mas finalizou para fora. Aos 41, Veron foi quem cruzou para Wesley, mas ele se enrolou e não conseguiu finalizar. No fim, Marcinho cometeu pênalti em Wesley. Na cobrança, sempre ele, Veiga marcou para empatar a decisão.

E agora?

Com o empate na partida de ida da Recopa, a decisão pelo título ficará para o Allianz Parque. Em São Paulo, quem vencer, por qualquer placar, ficará com a taça. Se houver o empate, também por qualquer placar, o jogo vai aos pênaltis.

Ashes hopeful suffers low-grade hamstring strain less than a month out from the first Test

Alex Malcolm11-Nov-2021

Michael Neser suffered a hamstring strain•Getty Images

Queensland are hopeful Test aspirant Michael Neser will still be available for the first Ashes Test after suffering a minor hamstring strain on the opening day of the Sheffield Shield clash with Western Australia at the Gabba.Neser suffered the strain during his ninth over on the first afternoon after taking the early wicket of Cameron Bancroft. He had a scan on Thursday morning that revealed a low-grade strain in his right leg. Queensland physio and former Australia Test batter Martin Love said he was optimistic Neser would be available for selection in the opening Ashes Test despite it being less than four weeks away.”He will be assessed in the coming days to arrive at a suitable return to play date,” Love said. “At this stage, we are hopeful that, if required, he would be available for selection for the opening Test.”Neser has yet to play a Test match for Australia but has been a regular member of Australia’s Test squads since 2018 and has come close to selection on a number of occasions. The retirement of James Pattinson has pushed him closer to the top of the queue of fast bowlers waiting in the wings behind Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc.Neser is a certainty to be named in Australia’s extended squad, due to be announced soon, but his participation in the three-day intrasquad match to be played in Brisbane starting on December 1 is now in doubt. He has had an interrupted start to the season, having missed two of Queensland’s Shield matches due to the birth of his child.Meanwhile, WA veteran Shaun Marsh is set for an extended period on the sidelines after suffering a bad calf injury while batting on the second day. Marsh was forced to retire hurt and did not return to bat or field on day two with his availability for WA’s next Shield game against Tasmania and his participation in the early part of the BBL season for Melbourne Renegades in severe doubt.WA bowler Joel Paris also suffered a minor hamstring injury on day one at the Gabba. He was able to bat on day two but won’t bowl in Queensland’s second innings.

da leao： Southampton have a number of young gems at their disposal next season that could star in the Premier League, based off pre-season showings so far from the Saints.

da bwin： New centre-back recruit Ronnie Edwards from Peterborough United shone when Russell Martin's men took on tough Ligue 1 opponents Montpellier recently, as the highly regarded defender picked out Tyler Dibling with a superb long-range pass to fire home on the day.

Martin might not be done there when it comes to bedding in some more top talents for the future into his new-look squad for the Premier League though, with this dangerous attacker – who has also been tipped for great things – rumoured to be relocating to St. Mary's on loan.

Southampton interested in deal for young Premier League ace

A report by the Daily Mail suggests that Liverpool will allow young hotshot Ben Doak to move to a loan club this summer, with Southampton's ears reportedly perking up at the prospect of a deal.

It will be up to the raw Scotsman whether he fancies a switch to the South Coast or whoever shows a keen interest in his services, however, as he weighs up his first-team chances at Anfield this coming campaign under new boss Arne Slot.

Minutes have come his way this pre-season, but it would be unrealistic for the promising 18-year-old to expect first-team action week in week out for the Reds, especially in the competitive nature of the Premier League near the very top.

Therefore, this move could suit all parties, but Leicester City are also interested as a fellow newly promoted club.

Seriously impressing those on Merseyside at youth level, Doak's moment to shine in the men's game could come this season at St. Mary's, with the potential for him to explode into life like Theo Walcott managed for the Saints once upon a time.

How Doak could become Southampton's next Walcott

Just watching the clip above again, Doak's electric burst of pace is very reminiscent of when Walcott used to rampage forward during the early stages of his fledging career, before losing steam as his career went on.

Still, before he became a household name for the likes of Arsenal, Walcott was a wide-eyed youngster trying to make the cut on the South Coast and was gifted his debut when he was just 16 years of age by then Southampton boss Harry Redknapp in 2005.

Walcott would never look back after being given his big break, netting four goals from 21 league games during his first season in the senior mix, and Doak will look to take the first-team by storm in a similar manner if he joins Martin's group, based off his promising numbers above in and around the youth structure at the Reds.

Doak has been gifted ten first-team chances already at Anfield, with Jurgen Klopp taking a particular shine to the "explosive" gem, as he has been described by football talent scout Jacek Kulig.

One showing against Toulouse last season during Liverpool's Europa League journey saw Doak show spurts of his raw quality, completing three successful dribbles despite only being on the pitch for one half, alongside winning five duels as a tenacious and energetic presence.

With the Saints also lacking down the right wing in terms of squad depth currently, the addition of the Liverpool youngster on loan would be a smart bit of business.

Southampton could even look back on this buy as the South Coast club having a key part to play in Doak's early footballing education, like Walcott before him, before he was then catapulted into stardom down the line.
