Adam Lallana has played just five Premier League games for Liverpool this season but will he leave for the Turkish Super Lig?

Adam Lallana looked set to fulfil his massive potential at Liverpool in the 2016/17 season.

The former Southampton midfielder put a slow start to life at Anfield behind him with a brilliant run of form under Jurgen Klopp two years ago. But, with his form going from strength to strength, Lallana’s progress was cut short by a serious and ill-timed injury.

And since returning to full fitness, the England international has unfortunately slipped well down the pecking order. He has started just three Premier League games since the start of last season.

And reports in Turkey are now stating that Lallana will be offered the chance to leave in the January transfer window.

According to Fotomac, Turkish Super Lig giants Fenerbahce are keen to sign the 30-year-old on loan until the end of the season as they aim to turn around a horrifying start to the campaign. Fener are 17th in an 18 team league and in genuine danger of relegation.

Damien Comolli, who was previously the director of football strategy at Anfield, is understood to be driving the deal in his role as Fenerbahce’s Director of Football.

It remains to be seen, however, how Lallana feels about a move to Istanbul as he aims to kick-start his stalling Liverpool career.

The Reds paid £25 million to sign Lallana from Southampton in the summer of 2014.
