Lovren is apparently close to leaving Anfield after five years on Merseyside, having seen his playing time diminish this season. And with Gomez set to return from injury this summer, Lovren is set to be demoted to a fourth-choice defender. He had made a strong start to the Premier League season, playing 90 minutes in nine of Liverpool’s first 11 games as Klopp’s charges raced to the summit of the table. However, this summer Lovren has been linked with a move away from Anfield, with AC Milan reportedly exploring a bid. Liverpool defender Joe Gomez is set to return to the starting line-up this season
