5 players who could leave Liverpool in the summer

#3 - James Milner

Chelsea v Liverpool - Carabao Cup Final

James Milner is one of the Liverpool players whose contract is up at the end of the season. The veteran midfielder is reportedly involved in talks over a new deal, but the two parties are not close to an agreement.

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed he wants the Englishman in his squad next season but hinted that the final decision is with the club.

"It's no secret that James is in the last year of his current deal – and again – I emphasise 'current'. I spoke recently about 'talks' taking place to extend his stay with us and I thought it might make sense to use this platform to clarify that as I've seen some misleading reporting around it. By talks I mean I indicated my wish that James stays with us beyond this season, in a playing capacity. James will keep playing, he has told me this."

Milner, who joined from Manchester City on a free transfer, is touted to leave Anfield after the season ends.

#2 - Takumi Minamino

Japan v Saudi Arabia - FIFA World Cup Asian Qualifier Final Round - Group B

Takumi Minamino is not satisfied with his chances at Liverpool and is trying his best to get into the team. The former Salzburg player was signed with great expectations but has failed to deliver.

Speaking to the club's website recently, he said:

"Playing for Liverpool was a childhood dream and I'm really happy to be here as the club's first Asian player. I would love to achieve something here and I am not satisfied with my results yet. I would love to contribute to the team more."

Minamino has played just 89 minutes in the Premier League this season, all coming in his ten substitute appearances. He has started seven games this season – scoring seven in total and assisting once.

#1 - Divock Origi

Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Final

Divock Origi is another Liverpool player whose contract is coming to an end this summer. The Belgian has been at the club for some time and has been a part of some historic moments at Anfield.

However, he could not break into the first team ahead of Roberto Firmino.

Now with more competition in the form of Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz, the striker's future looks set to be away from the club.

Origi is not short of offers right now, as reports suggest Burnley and Newcastle United are looking to lure him in the summer.
