Lucas Leiva, definitely a legend at Liverpool Football Club, has given his all to the club down the years but it is better for the sake of his career that he parts ways with the Kop as soon as possible. He is the longest serving Liverpool player right now but has been just a squad player in the last few seasons. Lucas had been a squad player for too long now and should ideally leave Liverpool in the summer in order to play more.
Serving Liverpool since 2007, bidding a goodbye will be hard for the player as well as the fans but it will be beneficial for both parties. It is crystal clear that Liverpool need a world-class defensive midfielder to shore up their leaky defence and provide steel to their midfield and for that, Lucas must leave. On the other hand, the Brazilian should not find it hard to get suitors for himself and look for regular playing time.

Snehanjan is a journalist at Sportskeeda covering European football news. A hardcore Liverpool fan for over two decades, he has been covering the game since the past 8 years and always strives to give readers relevant, accurate and credible content.
Snehanjan developed an interest in football at a very young age, thanks to his father watching football on TV. His favorite player is club legend Steven Gerrard and his favorite manager is another legend in Jurgen Klopp. The ‘Miracle of Istanbul’ i.e., Liverpool beating AC Milan in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final left an indelible mark on him. He believes that Liverpool is a family unlike other top clubs, which sets them apart.
Snehanjan also follows Indian Super League and the I-League, although the latter is closer to his heart. If he could change a rule in football, it would be VAR not pointing out mistakes of on-field officials unless they are clear and obvious errors. Outside the football world, Snehanjan likes to explore the various genres of music and watch movies and shows on OTT. He’s also a car enthusiast and likes to follow the automobile world.
