According to a study by former Barcelona Chief Marketing and Commercial Officer Esteve Cazada, Raheem Sterling is the most valuable young player in Europe.

The study, conducted by Cazada's company, Soccerex, valued Sterling at 35 million pounds. Liverpool rejected a bid at that number from Manchester City recently.

PSG defender Marquinhos was second on the list, followed by Memphis Depay of Manchester United, Domenico Berardi of Sassuolo and Jose Maria Jimenez of Atletico Madrid.

Jose Mourinho has made numerous statements during his second spell at the bridge about how quiet the stadium is during match day. Chelsea have become one of the most popular teams in Europe and the Premier League, and with only 45,000 seats, tickets are in high demand. Because of this, ticket prices go up and only spectators with deep pockets are able to get their hands on a ticket. 

Liverpool squeaked by in sixth place at the end of the Premier League season, which secured them the last qualifying spot in the Europa League. Brendan Rodgers has walked a fine line with Liverpool’s Board of Directors of whether or not he will continue to lead the Red’s in the future. Fighting for his job is his number one priority, and with no more Luis Suarez and a limited Daniel Sturridge, Rodgers has a lot of goals to make up for. 

After losing Luis Suarez to Barcelona, Liverpool have been in need of a dangerous striker to score goals for them. 

Luckily, that striker may be on his way, and he's American.

Seventeen-year-old Brooks Lennon plays for the Real Salt Lake academy, but he's been training on and off with Liverpool since 2013.

Due to weird FA rules about non-EU players, it's been hard for Liverpool to actually sign Lennon, but supposedly he has an Irish passport on the way, which should clear any remaining hurdles.

The buzz surrounding Sergio Ramos’ departure from Real Madrid has all signs pointing to him arriving at Old Trafford with Manchester United. The club’s back three or four, depending on van Gaal’s formation, has been criticized throughout the entire season with Marco Rojo, Chris Smalling, and Phil Jones stumbling to make a solid partnership during the year. 

It’s official, people: Petr Cech is coming to Arsenal. 

As expected of someone as seasoned and successful as Cech, he left in just about as classy of a way as he possibly could: the rumors surrounding his transfer never became a pain; negotiations never became an ordeal greater than they needed to be. In the last act of this transfer saga that wasn’t, Cech tweeted out a good-bye letter addressed to “everybody involved at Chelsea Football Club.”

As Major League Soccer grows, so too do the rivalries and competitive spirit within the league. The attractiveness of MLS has grown every day since its introduction to America in the early 90s with the help of world-class players retiring to the league. 

Steven Gerrard has given a ot of interviews about leaving Liverpool since his decision to leave the club for the LA Galaxy was announced, but none of them are as candid or insightful as this one with former England teammate Rio Ferdinand.

When DeAndre Yedlin was transferred to Tottenham Hotspur in 2014, it was music to Jurgen Klinsmann’s ears as he finally began to see more American national players move to Europe. As the MLS continues to grow and develop into an elite league, it becomes very important for players on Klinsmann’s current roster to play big European matches. 

If you are a Liverpool fan, you should be pretty stoked right now. Your transfer window has gone from about as underwhelming as James Milner at Karaoke Night, to downright exciting, like James Milner at…well, it’s exciting. Just know that.
