Joe Gomez is reportedly considering his future at Liverpool as the club prepare for change this summer.
Jurgen Klopp’s exit at the end of the season could lead to several departures and Anfield Watch claims Gomez is evaluating his future.

The 26-year-old has been at Liverpool since 2016 and is a Premier League and Champions League winner with the club.
He played 222 times for the Reds, averaging around 25 times per season. Gomez was not always the first choice and was often used as a backup.
The report claims that Gomez is not actively looking for an exit, but would be open to a new challenge.
This could mean a complete defensive rebuild for Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes for new boss Arne Slot.
Joel Matip is also at the end of his contract this summer and is expected to leave the club.
Even Virgil van Dijk’s future has been called into question in recent months.
The Liverpool captain himself even fueled speculation by suggesting he was unsure about his future with Klopp leaving.
However, he later clarified his comments, insisting they had been taken out of context.

“It was taken out of context a lot,” he said in an interview with Men in Blazers. “To be 100% clear, I am fully committed to the club, I love the club, I love the fans, this is completely taken out of context.
“It’s not about me, it’s not about me, it’s about us and nothing has changed, five days ago we weren’t even talking about my contract so it’s a little idiot.”
Klopp’s departure, however, leaves a lot up in the air, with Mohamed Salah’s future also uncertain.

Interest from the Saudi Pro League remains and a touchline row with the German has only fueled transfer talk.
However, talkSPORT understands Liverpool are confident he will stay and even sign a new deal.
Whatever happens, this summer promises to be one of big change at Anfield.
It has already been confirmed that Klopp’s departure will result in his entire backroom team leaving with him.
