Jurgen Klopp won't be the only person leaving Liverpool at the end of the season as a Reds player has hinted at an exit.

There were plenty of departures in the summer transfer window, with the likes of Jordan Henderson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Fabinho, Naby Keita, Roberto Firmino and James Milner moving on.

There might not be the same level of squad overhaul in the summer but Sepp van den Berg has already admitted that his first-team prospects are looking bleak.

Liverpool signed the 6ft 4 centre-back from dutch side PEC Zwolle in 2019, with the Reds beating off competition from Bayern Munich and Ajax.

He played four times in the cup in his first season at the club, having made his debut in a 5-5 draw with Arsenal.

But Van den Berg hasn't featured since then, instead spending time on loan.

His first stint was at Preston in the Championship before spending last season at Schalke.

He has been with Klopp's former club Mainz this term, playing 24 times in all competitions.

The 22-year-old has impressed and still has a three-year contract at Liverpool.

But although Joel Matip will be moving on, Van den Berg has admitted that he might need to move on for regular football.

"If I go back to Liverpool, they might want me to stay. If I see that I won't get much game time, then I might choose to leave. It's really important to me that I play," Van den Berg told Voetbal Nieuws, as per the Liverpool Echo.

"In previous years, I didn't feel like I would be starting next to Virgil. I don't know yet what my chances will be like next summer. I think I'm doing well. I can handle playing at Liverpool. I can compete. But being a starter is different. Virgil and Konate are not easy to beat. I know it will be hard."
