Once Jurgen Klopp packs his bags and heads out of the Anfield exit door, one or two Liverpool stars will be expected to follow suit.
The German has marked an era at the Reds, and whether its because certain players can’t face the thought of playing for the club under someone else or they simply want another adventure, the make up of the squad could change fairly significantly.
Certainly, whomever comes in Klopp’s stead will have their work cut out to not only be able to get their ideas across quickly, but to convince both the playing staff and the fan base that everything is going to be ok.
Thiago Alcantara looking to move from Liverpool

Though the summer transfer window doesn’t open for a couple of months yet, Thiago’s position in the Liverpool squad arguably gives him the opportunity to start negotiating his future now.
