Liverpool FC juggles Stefan Bajcetic transfer bid and Anfield Road closure dispute

Paris Saint‑Germain have expressed interest in Liverpool midfielder Stefan Bajcetic, reportedly valuing the player at around €170 million despite his contract running for two more years. The club’s former manager Jurgen Klopp once praised Bajcetic as a "joy" to work with, and the midfielder is expected to return to the first‑team squad after injury setbacks and loan spells.

Meanwhile, Liverpool FC’s proposal to permanently close Anfield Road to vehicular traffic has sparked division among fans and local residents. The club argues the closure improves safety amid a heightened terror threat, while community surveys show a majority opposition. Liverpool City Council’s planning committee is set to decide on the application, with the road’s future remaining uncertain.

Both developments highlight the club’s on‑field ambitions and off‑field community relations as it prepares for the 2026‑27 season.
