There is talk of some of their major players moving on as the club feel the impacts of no European football whilst they look to remain financially compliant.Last summer they saw Alexander Isak leave for Anfield and now the Merseysiders have been urged to go back in for their left-back, who has been among their best performers this term.Liverpool are losing stalwart Andy Robertson this summer with the Scot leaving when his contract expires and Murphy doesn't think there are many better left-backs who could be available.He told Betarades: "It’s probably unlikely you’re going to get him out because it it looks like [Sandro] Tonali might go and [Anthony] Gordon might go, but if Newcastle do have to sell and you can pinch him, even if you have to pay a bit more for him, he’s still a young man, he’s got the Premier League experience, and I think he’s been one of Newcastle’s shining lights this season.READ MORE: Five Liverpool stars miss training as Arne Slot faces injury crisis for Chelsea clashREAD MORE: Michael Owen makes Liverpool transfer plea over 'perfect' Mohamed Salah replacement"There’s a lot of great left-backs out there not worth mentioning because I don’t think you’d tear them away from PSG, Bayern Munich, and they’re at some of the biggest clubs in the world, and you’d like to be able to grab them and take them, but I’m not sure."Liverpool invested £40million in a new left-back last summer, landing Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth. My feeling is that he’s not.
He’s probably an understudy; he’s probably a backup. But he’s not better than Andy Robertson."Newcastle been tipped to lose at least one of Tonali or Gordon, with the latter being on Bayern Munich's radar.
