Former Wales star Robbie Savage has thrown doubts over the future of Liverpool's biggest names in the wake of Jurgen Klopp's decision to leave at the end of the season. 

Klopp's shocking announcement could affect the futures of Mohamed Salah, Virgil Van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, who are all nearing the end of their current deals with the club. 

Speaking to Planet Sport Bet, Savage warned that players could be considering their future and will want to know who the club's new manager will be before signing new deals. 

“Will there be an exodus of players on the back of Klopp’s departure?” Savage said

“Three of Liverpool’s most influential players – Virgil Van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mo Salah – have their contracts currently ending at the end of next season and it’s going to be a huge summer as they need to tie all three down to new deals.

“All three are massive for Liverpool and they are needed to keep the club progressing. If I was in their shoes, I’d want to see who the new manager was before making any decisions, but you’d have to think the Liverpool board will be doing all they can to keep them.”
