Exclusive: Liverpool duo likely to follow Roberto Firmino in sealing transfers away this summer

Posted by

Liverpool duo Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain look likely to leave Anfield on free transfers at the end of the season, according to Fabrizio Romano in his exclusive Daily Briefing for CaughtOffside.

The Reds recently announced that Roberto Firmino would be moving on at the end of his contract this summer, and it seems he won’t be the only big name departing Anfield.

Discussing other possible Liverpool FC transfers to look out for, Romano named Keita and Oxlade-Chamberlain as two more likely exits, while veteran midfielder James Milner is yet to discuss his future and make a final decision on next season.

I expect both Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to follow Roberto Firmino and leave Liverpool on a free transfer this summer,” Romano said.

Liverpool could see many players leave this summer

“James Milner will decide in the next months, he will speak to Jurgen Klopp too. For all the other players, it will be decided in May/June ahead of the transfer window.

“Firmino, Keita and Oxlade will explore options soon but nothing is decided yet.”

Keita and Oxlade-Chamberlain are no longer regulars in Jurgen Klopp’s first-team, so it probably makes sense to allow them to leave and to rebuild in midfield.

Firmino will be missed, however, and it’s generally starting to look like a new era for Klopp as many of the best players from his most legendary LFC sides will be gone when next season starts.

Sadio Mane and Georginio Wijnaldum have also both left recently, and even cult hero Divock Origi found himself a new club last summer, and if we see Firmino, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Keita and Milner leave, it will be a very different Reds side next season.

  1. Can you take of these below also as they are not offering a lot for us.
    Jota, Gomez, Matip, Henderson, Thiago too injury prone, Fabinho just lost his way big time also they are not good enough.
    Trouble is without Champions League football, we may lose out on potential signings, Bellingham in particular, also MacAllister would be a great signing,
    Build a team around them, Konate, Alison, VVD If fit.. I would move TAA into midfield, so new RB Nunez will only get better, and Salah well he got his new contract but has been seriously AWOL this season
    Mr Klopp has a massive job on his hands between now and the end of the season, and then a summer of possible transfers, and these need to be squared away ready for next season. Put this season to bed, we have had some successful times over last 6-7 yrs so we all knew a rebuild was going to come, and FSG should have supported Kloppy, in the last two windows, i hope they will support him in the summer window.
    Yes last night was a great disappointment, but we are Liverpool, and we will never falter in out support win, lose or draw YNWA
