'I didn't play in the last few months at Liverpool' - Mignolet hints at summer exit

The Belgium international has suggested that he may have to leave Anfield in order to find regular football.

SIMON MIGNOLET HAS suggested that he could leave Liverpool this summer.

The Belgium international, who is currently at the World Cup, slipped behind Loris Karius in the pecking order at Anfield towards the latter end of last season.

Mignolet was on the bench for the final 16 games of the Premier League season and did not play at all in the club’s run to the final of the Champions League.

Indeed, the 30-year-old has now suggested that he may be forced to look for alternative solutions to his lack of playing time, away from Jurgen Klopp’s side.

“I am going to look at my situation when I come back from the World Cup,” said Mignolet, per the London Evening Standard.

“I didn’t play in the last few months at Liverpool, so after the World Cup I will look at everything. I can’t say much more.

“I don’t know how long I will have off after the tournament. I need to speak to the manager about that.”

Mignolet has not played for Belgium at the World Cup and was an unused substitute as the Red Devils beat England 1-0 on Thursday.

    The sooner he is gone the better. He has been given multiple chances but keeps f#cking up every time.

    @Tondelaya della Ventimiglia: Klopp is building a good squad. Just a few donkeys to get rid of like Moreno, Mignolet and injury prone Sturridge. Plenty of other clubs with a lot more dead wood and worse still, offering em new deals!

    For me Mignolet is less error prone than Karius hence I could not understand the decision to drop him. Neither keeper is ultimately good enough but we might have at least gone to extra time with Real Madrid in the UCL final if Mignolet was playing.

    Liverpool need to get rid of both their keepers by the next two transfter windows. They should buy Nick Pope as and jonas Lossl
