Transfer: Dejan Loveren Set To Leave Liverpool In A £23million Deal

According to Calcio Mercato, English Premier League side, Liverpool, have allowed Dejan Loveren, to move to Roma in a £23million deal.

The Liverpool defender is close to completing the deal that will see him leave Anfield during the summer transfer window.

The Reds manager, Jurgen Klopp has placed Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip ahead of Lovren in his first team.

According to the Italian publication, the two clubs have almost concluded an agreement worth up to £23m when add-ons are included.

The Croatian international has made 170 appearances for Liverpool having joined in a £20m move from Southampton in 2014.

The exceptional performance of Matip, Van Dijk and Gomez saw the playing time of Loveren limited to 18 appearances in all competitions last season.

He is yet to make a first-team appearance this season for the Reds after being left out of Klopp’s squad for the league opener against Norwich and Wednesday’s UEFA Super Cup.
