The Brazilian midfielder left Anfield for Serie A side Lazio, but the Reds coach has left the door open for his return in a few years
Jurgen Klopp wants Lucas Leiva to return to Liverpool at the end of his playing career, vowing to "find a place for him" if the coach is still in charge.
The Brazilian midfielder ended his decade-long stay at Anfield by agreeing a three-year deal at Lazio this week, having slipped down the pecking order on Merseyside.
Lucas started only 12 league games for Klopp last season but the German is hoping he gets the chance to work with the 30-year-old again in the future.
