An era ended at Anfield today as Mo Salah and Andy Robertson made their final appearances in Liverpool red. Manager Arne Slot addressed both men directly during a training ground presentation, voicing his gratitude to two players who gave nine years each to the club. Emotional scenes, and a proper send-off for two genuine legends of the modern game.
Meanwhile Liverpool aren't wasting any time grieving, because the front office is already moving. Reports indicate the Reds have beaten Barcelona to the signing of Samuel Martinez, a wonderkid being talked about as the next Kaka. That's a significant scalp, pipping one of the biggest clubs in the world to a prospect with that kind of ceiling. The transfer window hasn't even officially opened yet.
And out in Anaheim, Mike Trout reminded everyone he's still got it. The Angels slugger launched his thirteenth home run of the season, a two-run shot to center field in the first inning, and Los Angeles never looked back. Nolan Schanuel added an RBI double as the Angels took down the Texas Rangers five to two, clinching the series in the process.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
