Adam Bogdan has commented on his Liverpool future, with his contract up next summer.

Adam Bogdan has admitted to The Scotsman that he believes he’ll be leaving Liverpool in the summer.

The 31-year-old, who has managed only two Premier League appearances for the Reds, is out of contract at Anfield in June.

Bogdan, who earns £24,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com, has been on loan with Hibernian in the Scottish Premiership since July, and the Hungarian keeper, signed by Brendan Rodgers in 2015, admits that he is effectively a Liverpool player in name only now.

“In my head unless some crazy thing happens the contract will run out,” he told The Scotsman.

“I am still a Liverpool player but it is running out. I am considering myself more a Hibs player.”

In truth, Liverpool just don’t need him – and perhaps they never did.

The former Bolton ace, who has 20 caps for Hungary, has made only six first-team appearances for Liverpool in over three years, and hasn’t played for the Premier League side since May 2016.

With Alisson, Simon Mignolet and Kamil Grabara part of Jurgen Klopp’s first-team squad, it seems nigh-on impossible that the German will be offering Bogdan a new contract.

The Merseysiders also have young Irishman Caoimhin Kelleher on the books, though neither he or Grabara have made Klopp’s squad for a competitive outing this season.
