Will the Zubimendi to Liverpool rumour ever go away?
Today, we have a fresh update to bring you, with parody Twitter account @indykaila claiming the Spaniard now regrets not moving to Anfield during the summer, with a January move possible.
Sadly, it appears to be utter rubbish!

He does state that “we’ll see” when it comes to next summer, but don’t be expecting Zubimendi at Liverpool midway through the season.

Liverpool FC: On this day
On this day in 2020, Liverpool completed the signing of Diogo Jota from Wolves.
The Portuguese has gone on to become a wonderful player for the Reds, even if injuries have been an issue, and he is Slot’s first-choice striker.
Jota has 57 goals in 150 appearances, of which only 97 have been starts, and him staying fit feels crucial to Liverpool’s Premier League and Champions League hopes this season.
At 27, he is at the peak of his powers and can cement legendary status with another four or five years of great service.
