The Liverpool centre-half who's fall down Jurgen Klopp's pecking order in recent times has attracted interest from a number of European clubs, the likes of Roma among others.

But recent reports have suggested that Russian champions Zenith Saint Petersburg are leading the race for the Croatia international and more likely to land him this summer.



Speculation of a potential exit has gone on the increase about Lovren who apparently would deserves a new club next season.

But that may now seems contradictory to Jurgen Klopp's latest idea of keeping the former Southampton man and tying him to a new contract.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes Lovren has been an important part of his squad and wants to tie him to at least a one-year contract.

"He has been injured a couple of times (this season) and wasn't available but Dejan played outstanding games for us," Klopp said.

"Dejan has a very important role for us. He has played in a Champions League final, in a lot of big games, he is a very reliable player.

"There is a value to his experience, absolutely. Since I've been in here, Dejan was always either in the team, close to the team or not available.

"There was never anything else, we have never had any problems.

"There is nothing to discuss in public about his contract situation. The situation is absolutely clear - Dejan is a player of LFC and we need him.

"You need the quality we have at centre-half to be successful."
