Liverpool's Dejan Lovren out of Super Cup Amid Roma Transfer Rumours

Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren has been left out of the club's squad to face Chelsea in the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday amid rumours he could join AS Roma.

The Croatia international has slipped down the pecking order at Anfield and is now fourth choice in central defence. The Times (h/t the Mirror's Alex Smith) reported Liverpool are in talks with Roma and would accept £15 million for the player.

2019 UEFA Champions League winners Liverpool will face UEFA Europa League titleholders Chelsea at Vodafone Park in Istanbul, Turkey, but Lovren was omitted from Jurgen Klopp's squad, per the Liverpool Echo's Joe Rimmer.
