Bajcetic’s future has been in the headlines in recent days, with one report claiming that Las Palmas are “in the process of closing” a deal to sign him on loan.

Now, Relevo journalist Matteo Moretto states that the 20-year-old’s “most likely destination” is indeed Las Palmas, who are 15th in La Liga currently, as negotiations “could move forward” quickly.

Bajcetic’s temporary spell at RB Salzburg this season has been mixed, with only seven starts coming in the Austrian Bundesliga and Champions League combined.

For that reason, here’s hoping a move elsewhere springs him into life, prior to returning to Liverpool for pre-season.

Jack Lusby has delved into some of the key match stats from the 4-1 win over Ipswich, not least the brilliance of Van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate:

“In total, Van Dijk played 28 passes into the final third and Konate 21, though interestingly the captain was considerably more accurate with his long passes (completing seven of eight, 87.5%) than his centre-back partner (two of seven, 28.6%).

“That may demonstrate the next step Konate will need to take as he looks to reach Van Dijk’s level as the perfect centre-back.

“But on Saturday’s evidence, Liverpool already have the next best thing alongside their No. 4.”
