Johnson can see Alexander-Arnold leaving Liverpool

Liverpool defender Glen Johnson is worried about the club losing two key players.

The ex-right back has spoken about the futures of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mo Salah.

He believes that both players will follow manager Jurgen Klopp out of Liverpool in the coming months.

Per The Sun, Johnson said: “Let's be real, who's not going to take Trent Alexander-Arnold or Mo Salah on the cheap?

“I don't believe we'll see a big exodus at Liverpool this summer if the contract situations don't get sorted now — which they won't do because the players are going to want to know what's going on.

“If they have a bad start to next season, then a year from now we will be discussing about them having six months left on their contracts. If that happens, Liverpool will be in trouble because Trent and Mo can attract interest from any club they want.

“They don't have to take a risk and, if Liverpool have a bad season following Jurgen's departure, then we could potentially see an exodus."
