Brendan Rodgers' own position is shrouded in uncertainty ahead of the 2015-16 campaign but he will oversee a major summer recruitment drive that may be shaped by the winger's exit.
After starting the season with such promise, Liverpool's campaign ultimately fizzled out as Brendan Rodgers came under intense pressure following a number of uninspiring performances.
Indeed, the club’s 6-1 final day thrashing at the hands of Stoke City saw many call for Rodgers’ head, but the club has decided to stick by its man, for now.
The team's summer recruitment drive is already well underway, with James Milner signed from Manchester City, pending a medical, and Danny Ings lured from Burnley, though a compensation fee is still to be agreed.
