LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana will leave the club at the end of the season after six years.
Lallana has agreed to a short-term extension to his contract, allowing him to complete the rest of the pandemic-affected season.
“I know how highly sought after Adam is in this moment by other clubs who want him for next season,” Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp said on Tuesday, “so for him this is a commitment to us and we are very appreciative to him for it.”
Lallana, who joined from Southampton in 2014 and has made 178 appearances for Liverpool, is among the dozens of English Premier League players whose contracts are due to expire at the end of June.
