Two Liverpool players are set to secure moves away from Anfield on deadline day, but no new faces are coming in!
Today’s Main LFC Headline
According to a host of reports, including the Northern Echo, Jayden Danns is closing in on a move to Sunderland on loan having already made the trip for his medical.
The 19-year-old is going to struggle for regular minutes for Liverpool, so heading to the Championship promotion hopefuls could be ideal for his development.
Meanwhile, The Athletic’s James Pearce has reported that Kaide Gordon is “set to join” Portsmouth for the remainder of the campaign, looking to get his career back on track.
The youngster has already had a doomed spell at Norwich this season, starting only once in the Championship, so the hope is that things go better for him on the south coast.
It is not expected to be a busy end to the window, but these are two deals expected to be finalised.

More from This Is Anfield
Sam Millne has rounded up the latest Liverpool loan news, with Lewis Koumas enjoying a good weekend at Stoke:
“Koumas had started the previous five matches under Robins, but the new manager chose to start January loan signings Ali Al-Hamadi from Ipswich up front and Josh Wilson-Esbrand, from Man City, on the left.
“This meant Bae Jun-ho started on the right as Koumas dropped to the bench.
“Liverpool’s 19-year-old still managed to make a big difference, though, coming on for half an hour and setting up Stoke’s winner by driving the ball low into the box, where fellow substitute Andrew Moran finished cleverly.”
