Reds set to confirm departure of two senior players

Liverpool are set to confirm that Daniel Sturridge and Alberto Moreno will leave the club at the end of June, according to the Echo.

The contracts of both players will expire at the end of next month, with neither player offered an extension.

Premier League rules dictate that clubs must submit their list of retained and released players by the third Saturday in May, with the list made public by the first Friday in June.

Sturridge has been a Red since 2013 after Brendan Rodgers signed him from Chelsea, while Moreno arrived at the club a year later from Sevilla.

While Sturridge has featured frequently as a substitute, scoring a handful of quality strikes along the way, Moreno has made just five appearances all season since falling well behind Andy Robertson in the pecking order.

Liverpool will likely look to sign a new striker and left-back this summer to fill the void left by their two departing players.
