LiveScore Daily is here to deliver all the big talking points from the world of football throughout the day. Keep refreshing this page for the latest stories in bite-sized chunks.

No need to panic

Jurgen Klopp is not worried that his exit from Liverpool will be followed by a mass exodus of players.

Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah have 18 months remaining on their contracts and the Dutch centre-back has said he is unsure where his future lies.

But Klopp insists the club is in a good position to deal his replacement the best hand possible.

He said: "A week ago when nobody knew about my decision and there were 18 months on the contracts, nobody asked. So give us a break, give the boys a break.

"Nobody has to worry. This club is stable, 100%, and everything will be fine.

"These players love to be here, I know that for a fact. It is not that they have one foot out. They want to know a little bit of perspective but that will happen behind the scenes."

Business is done

Ange Postecoglou is happy with Tottenham's squad

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou does not expect the club to sign any more players before the transfer window shuts on Thursday.

Spurs have made the highest-profile moves in the window so far, recruiting forward Timo Werner on loan from RB Leipzig and defender Radu Dragusin on a permanent deal from Genoa.

And Postecoglou anticipates that being the extent of the North Londoners' business.

He said: "I don't see any incomings.

"Outgoings are a little bit different because I'm not totally engaged with that. Other people are doing the work around that.

"I am sure going into the summer we'll be in a good place to make sure we again try to take advantage of the fact we can make our squad and team stronger for what is ahead."

Earn your Spurs

Thomas Frank has called upon Brentford to stop "all or nothing" Tottenham when the sides meet tomorrow.

The Bees beat Spurs 3-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last season but face a very different prospect this week.

And Frank admitted he is a fan of Postecoglou's carefree style of play.

He said: "Ange has done a good job at Tottenham in many ways.

"I like the offensive approach, I like the all-or-nothing approach as well. I think it is brave and you need to be brave to create big things.

"But no matter what style you have, no matter what you do, there are also some weaknesses, so it is up to us to try and minimise the strengths of Tottenham tomorrow."

Flying full-back joins Eagles

Crystal Palace have signed attacking full-back Daniel Munoz from Genk.

The Colombia international has scored seven goals and registered two assists so far this season, having netted eight last term.

The 27-year-old said: "It's a pleasure for me to be here at such a big club as Crystal Palace.

"I'm very excited, very happy and I can't wait to be on the pitch."

Eagles chairman Steve Parish said the move will be "a huge boost to the squad for the remainder of the season and beyond".

He added: "Daniel has experience at the highest level for club and country and he possesses an impressive record going forwards for a full-back."

Hosts on the march

Ivory Coast celebrate their penalty shootout win over Senegal
Ivory Coast celebrate their penalty shootout win over Senegal

Ivory Coast striker Sebastien Haller believes Ivory Coast have given themselves a chance to recover from a dreadful fortnight and win the Africa Cup of Nations.

The host nation beat holders Senegal on penalties in the last 16 yesterday after equalising in the 86th minute of a 1-1 draw.

But having lost 4-0 to Equatorial Guinea, sneaked through in third place and sacked manager Jean-Louis Gasset during the group stage, success in the competition would be extraordinary.

Borussia Dortmund forward Haller said: "The last days were tough for us.

"We have opened the door and given ourselves a chance. We can forget now about what happened in the group stage."
