Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp will reportedly keep Dejan Lovren at Anfield for next season.

Liverpool fans do not appear to be best pleased with suggestions that Dejan Lovren will be staying next season.

The Liverpool Echo have said that Lovren will be kept by Jurgen Klopp, as the Reds boss feels that the centre-back is solid back-up.

Lovren has progressively played a less important role at Liverpool in recent times, with Joel Matip, Virgil Van Dijk and Joe Gomez all ahead of him in the pecking order.

However, some Liverpool fans do not even want him as fourth choice and they have claimed that Klopp is making an error by keeping the Croatian.

Lovren has put in some erratic performances over his Liverpool career, but his passion for the club is clear.

The £20 million centre-back (BBC Sport) was right in the thick of the celebrations as Liverpool won the Champions League final and he is a proven Premier League centre-back.

It seems unlikely that Lovren will get much game time at Liverpool next term, unless injury does strike.

The Reds begin the new Premier League campaign with a match against Norwich City at Anfield.
