How to watch Liverpool vs Yokohama F Marinos: TV channel and live stream for pre-season friendly today
The Reds are looking to avenge a 4-2 defeat by AC Milan last time out and return to winning ways when they face the J-League side at the Nissan Stadium.
Arne Slot has been dealt a blow as his first-choice goalkeeper Alisson flew back home to deal with a personal issue, while he still has just the two central defenders in his squad - Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate - after Joe Gomez also went home with an Achilles injury.
Luis Diaz also left the camp to finalise a move to Bayern Munich.
Latest summer recruit Hugo Ekitike could be in line for his first appearance in a Liverpool shirt since his £68million move from Eintracht Frankfurt. He did not feature in the defeat against Milan.

NFL players can still use smelling salts as long as not provided by teams
NFL players will be allowed to use 'smelling salts' during games after all. The NFLPA sent a memo to players on Wednesday saying that the ban that the league informed teams about on Tuesday only prohibits team employees from distributing smelling salts and any other ammonia inhalant during pregame activities, games and halftime on the sideline or locker rooms.

Why Liverpool WON'T sign Bradley Barcola amid reports of imminent bid for PSG sensation
Liverpool won't sign Barcola Satisfied with Ngumoha's progress Reds face Palace in Community Shield on Sunday Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Earlier on Wednesday, L'Equipe reported that Liverpool are back in the race to sign 22-year-old wide man Barcola this summer, as they continue to face difficulties in their pursuit of Alexander Isak. They have already seen their first bid for the Newcastle star rejected and were said to have now shifted their focus to Barcola and Real Madrid's Rodrygo. THE BIGGER PICTURE The Athletic, however, claims that the Reds are not considering a move for Barcola at the moment, as his arrival at Anfield would affect the progress of youth product Rio Ngumoha. The 16-year-old wonderkid has been impressive in the club's pre-season friendlies and the champions' primary focus is to oversee the growth of the teenager as a player under Arne Slot's tutelage. DID YOU KNOW? Liverpool have already spent almost £300 million ($400m) this summer to strengthen their squad and a transfer for Barcola would probably cost them another €100m (£133.5m). WHAT NEXT FOR LIVERPOOL? Slot's men are now preparing for their first competitive match of the 2024-25 campaign as they take on Crystal Palace in the Community Shield on Sunday.

Alan Shearer claims Liverpool has questions to answer with transfer advice
Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer believes that Liverpool has glaring issues that must be resolved defensively, amid its pursuit of striker Alexander Isak. Liverpool has heavily pursued Isak this summer, and Newcastle rejected a bid worth $146 million from the Premier League champions. Liverpool has already spent $106 million on Hugo Ekitike this transfer window, a player Newcastle intended to sign. It's been an exciting summer window for Liverpool, as Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, and Milos Kerkez have all been acquired alongside Ekitike. However, despite being linked with Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, Shearer is concerned about Liverpool's depth in the center-back role.

Virgil van Dijk is still world-class at age 34, and Ibrahima Konate continues to improve with each season following his arrival in 2021. Behind them, though, are Joe Gomez and Rhys Williams. Gomez has made 137 Premier League appearances for Liverpool across 10 seasons, but has never held down a consistent role. Williams is only 24, but all nine of his league appearances came during an injury-ridden 2020-21 season. Since then, he has been sent on loan five times, but he did make 33 appearances for Morecambe last season in League Two. While the offensive targets are exciting for Liverpool, Shearer believes the club should prioritize a center-back. "Looking at Liverpool, there are still a few questions defensively, and I'd guess that center-half is still a position that they want to fill, certainly with added numbers because they are light in that position," he told Betfair. "It wouldn't surprise me if they're in the market for another centre-half. There'll be even more money spent by the big clubs come the end of the transfer window." Liverpool remains keen on breaking the British transfer record to sign Isak, but for Newcastle to grant his release, the club needs to sign a replacement. However, the window has been disastrous for the club. When Newcastle signed Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest for $74 million on July 10, optimism was high. Since then, Newcastle has seen pursuits of Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford, Ipswich striker Liam Delap, and Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo fall through. All three players opted for moves elsewhere in England, and Liverpool hijacked Newcastle's pursuit of Ekitike. After Newcastle finally saw a bid accepted for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, Manchester United turned his head with a late approach. If Newcastle cannot sign a new forward, then it's likely that Isak will remain at the club next season. However, given his desire to leave the club, which has forced him to train alone, head coach Eddie Howe must resolve the situation before the start of next season. "The biggest thing they have to do is, somehow, sort the Isak situation out - and if they can't get anyone in, I guess that means he isn't going anywhere," Shearer added. "Eddie will have to be at his persuasive best to try and turn Isak's head around because it has been turned in terms of him wanting to go to Liverpool. "On the proviso that he does want to go and Eddie can't turn his head, then you get the money. But prior to that, you have to get people in to replace him." Newcastle also released back-up striker Callum Wilson, meaning 22-year-old William Osula is the only center-forward on the roster besides Isak. Even if Newcastle does sign a new striker before the end of the window, Shearer is concerned about the club's inability to attract new players. "Whether that has anything to do with Newcastle's lack of business and the number of players that have said no to them, I don't know. It's not a good look."
