Liverpool insiders are reportedly expecting Adam Lewis to leave the club this summer, with a loan or permanent exit now on the cards for the defender.
According to the Liverpool Echo, Anfield officials believe the 23-year-old will depart Merseyside in the coming weeks with Lewis not expected to play any role for the club in the future, with the fullback spending last season out on loan at Newport County.
Lewis came through Liverpool’s academy and was once tipped to go straight to the top. However, the defender’s progress has stagnated in recent years, and there’s now a good chance that the fullback will leave the Premier League giants this summer.
With Lewis spending the last three seasons out on loan at four different clubs, a departure from Liverpool would be an ideal move for all parties this summer, especially with the defender at a stage in his career where breaking into Jurgen Klopp’s plans feels unlikely at best.
Indeed, Lewis himself likely knows that making it at Liverpool aged 23 would be quite incredible at this point. And with insiders at the Reds now thinking the defender will be leaving, a transfer could soon be arranged for the former England youth international.
Adam Lewis needs to leave Liverpool to reignite his career
Leaving a club as big as Liverpool is difficult for any young player, yet for Lewis, departing Anfield will be the only way the defender gets his footballing career back on track, with clubs lower down the English pyramid likely to be interested in the fullback.
As we know, Lewis has shown at the likes of Newport and Plymouth Argyle that he has the quality to become a key player at a professional club. And leaving Liverpool could be the best thing to happen in the defender’s young career so far.
