Liverpool legend Nicol tips Lallana to snub Leicester, Arsenal

Liverpool legend Steve Nicol is expecting Adam Lallana to sign a new contract with the club.

Leicester City, Arsenal and Tottenham are reportedly interested in the 31-year-old, who is a free agent at the end of the season.

But Nicol believes Lallana will want to stay part of a successful Reds side.

Asked about 31-year-old's future by ESPN FC, former Reds defender Nicol said: "I'm not so sure.

"As a player you want to play but I think he seems to me he's in a stage where 'I like being at Liverpool, I enjoy being at Liverpool, it's a great place to be, I'm playing some games, I'm having fun. Do I want to leave Liverpool and go somewhere just to play, where it could be hard work and not enjoyable?'.

"So I don't think this guy's going to leave and it's good for Liverpool that he doesn't leave because he's a great squad player.

"I don't think he's going anywhere."
