Liverpool midfielder Pedro Chirivella has signed a three-year contract with Ligue 1 club Nantes
| ||||||
The Spaniard is expected to leave for free and awaits his Liverpool contract to become obsolete at the end of June.
Chirivella made just 11 first team appearances in his five years stay at Liverpool, with most of those outings coming in cup competitions.
The 23-year-old moved to Liverpool in 2015 after being plucked from Valencia's academy.
Since joining Liverpool, Chirivella has embarked on a series of subsequent loan spells to gain experience but still return to settle in the Reds' youth ranks.
He was named captain when a youthful Liverpool team faced Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup in December and then started the FA Cup victories over Everton and Shrewsbury Town at Anfield.
He will now begin a new chapter by linking up with Nantes, who finished 13th in the Ligue 1 table after France's top flight season was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
He'll be liable to play for the French club once his Reds contract expires at the end of June.
