| Klopp hints at new contract for Adrian and James Milner |
Klopp offered a fascinating and revealing hint that the two of his most popular stars will sign new contracts to stay at Liverpool.
And in doing so, the Liverpool manager also confirmed that another Anfield legend will be leaving the club…even though Klopp desperately wants him to stay. The Reds face their final Anfield game of the season on Sunday, as they go head to head in a Super Sunday Showdown with Manchester City for the ultimate prize of the
Premier League final.
But it will be a poignant moment, with three of Klopp’s incredible first team squad out of contract in the summer, with no confirmation yet on their futures.
The English club have some important players still negotiating their futures, with cult hero Divock Origi , genuine Liverpool legend James Milner, and popular back up keeper Adrian all free agents in the summer. But when asked if the out of contract players would be given the hero’s send off they deserve by the Kop, in the emotional, massive contest with Wolves on Sunday, Klopp’s reply was hugely revealing.
Instead of dodging the question, he argued that only ONE exit was confirmed, saying: “We can only do that with the (ones) we know definitely. I think it's only Div (Origi), right?” Klopp is well aware that Milner and Adrian are out of contract in the summer, with the former wanted by both Leeds and Newcastle, for his leadership and experience.
The Liverpool boss' comments strongly suggests both players is engaged in talks over another year's contract extension at Anfield.
