Liverpool’s longest serving star could now LEAVE
This is going to be a busy summer ahead for Liverpool.
Well, the summer hasn't even begun but it's already a busy one for the Reds. Richard Hughes has not rested on his laurels.

He's gone and signed a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, with Jeremie Frimpong set to arrive at Anfield when the transfer window opens.
And if that wasn't enough, Hughes has gone one step further and decided to splurge on Frimpong's Bayer Leverkusen teammate, Florian Wirtz.
Because why not? Wirtz is one of the best young players in world football, it's only right that he joins Liverpool.
On top of that, the Reds are working on a deal to sign Milos Kerkez, too.
Which means there is a possibility, Liverpool could have three new signings by the first week of June. And this is just the beginning of the summer.
But of course, lots of new faces will also mean lots of old faces leaving the club and at this stage nobody is truly safe. Even someone who has served the club for a very long time.

Joe Gomez has spent almost over a decade at Anfield now. He joined the Reds from Charlton while Brendan Rodgers was in charge.
Over the years, he's grown from a teenager into an England international and a multiple Premier League winner. Injuries have ravaged his career at times but he's always bounced back.
Nonetheless, he's never quite been able to reach his peak and fight himself into the starting line-up over the course of the last couple of seasons.
In fact he's always been linked with a move away. Last year, we exclusively revealed that he could be on the move that summer.
Gomez was seriously considering his future at the time but opted to stay. This time around, he could finally leave the club.
That's according to the Daily Mail, who claim that 'it would not be a surprise' if Gomez was to move on this summer when listing the possible departures from the club.
The site says that Gomez has barely featured this season even when fit and that he is a possible candidate to be sold.
There are no suggestions as to where he could go. Last season, Newcastle were interested in his services. Although that now remains unlikely to be the case.
At 28-years-old now, Gomez is supposed to be in his prime years as a defender. As an England international and someone who can play in multiple positions across the back, he's still an attractive proposition for prospective parties.
So, if Liverpool did want to get rid of him, there would definitely be suitors.

Gomez would probably like to move on in search of more playing time as well, so it would not surprise us if this move did indeed happen.
