Liverpool player 'in talks' to leave this month after 'causing problems at his loan club'

One Liverpool star who was sent out on loan is reportedly in talks to join another side after 'causing problems'.

Back in the summer transfer window, midfielder Stefan Bajcetic was sent out on loan to Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg, reuniting with Pep Lijnders, who worked as Jurgen Klopp's assistant at Anfield.

Bajcetic, 20, is highly rated after impressing at the heart of Klopp's midfield during the 22/23 season.

The youngster scored his first senior goal for Liverpool during a 3-1 Premier League victory over Aston Villa back in December of 2022.

A serious injury then meant Bajcetic was sidelined for most of the 23/24 campaign, dropping him down the pecking order.

In August 2024, the Spaniard joined Salzburg on a season-long loan deal.

However, it was reported in October that Bajcetic had been 'causing problems' at Salzburg.

The Spanish midfielder joined the club at the end of the transfer window, but his debut was delayed due to visa issues. Reports at the time stated that the Salzburg players were ‘astonished’ with their manager’s want to continually start Bobby Clark and Bajcetic alongside each other in the heart of midfield, according to the Austrian newspaper the Krone.

After Lijnders was sacked in December, speculation regarding Bajcetic's future has ramped up as we approach the end of the winter transfer window.

As reported by Spanish news outlet MARCA, La Liga side Las Palmas are now in talks with Liverpool over a loan deal for Bajcetic, which will last until the end of the current campaign.

Las Palmas reportedly wants to add Bajcetic to their ranks as they look to avoid relegation.

It has been suggested that Las Palmas and Liverpool share a good relationship after the pair faced off in a friendly match prior to the start of the 24/25 season.

So far this season, Bajcetic has only managed 18 appearances across all competitions for Salzburg.
