I’ve only got a year left on my contract, so I don’t know,” he said.“Whatever’s meant to be will be, but I’m so grateful to have had this time here at this club.“I always will be grateful to have had 11 years at a place like this. All I can do is be thankful and we’ll see.”The defender added on Liverpool’s result against Chelsea and the remainder of the season:“We have to just do our best to rally around each other and try to get the boys’ heads in the right direction.
There’s frustrations and there’s been plenty of voices and discussions and meetings from different people – staff, players. Black and white thing now we need Champions League football, that’s the objective we get that.”“We dust ourselves off and we go again and just go into the [next] year and have a good start.”AC Milan are long‑term admirers and came close to a move both last summer and again in January before Liverpool ultimately decided to keep hold of their longest‑serving player.The Anfield club will be aware that this window may be their last realistic chance to bank a meaningful fee before his contract winds down.
