Liverpool‘s young defender, Luke Chambers, has just signed a new contract with the Reds and he had been at the club since the age of six.

Luke Chambers has been on loan with the Scottish Premiership side Kilmarnock, since January. The 18-year-old was sent on loan to Kilmarnock FC in Scotland in January. The Scottish team has been struggling in the Scottish Premiership and where the LFC youngster has made 11 appearances so far.

Moreover, he has been a part of Klopp’s team in the pre-season tour and has been named in the matchday squad twice.

Luke Chambers extends his Liverpool contract

The defender extended his contract with the Reds while he was being monitored by Watford. The Hornets were keeping tabs on the full-back’s progress with the Scottish side.

During his time in Scotland, he has received praise from the club’s manager, Derek McInnes.

“It was a great debut for Luke Chambers.

He played a part in the goal, he picked out the pass, he was quality in possession. He was making his senior debut at 18, there was a lot of nerves, but the level of performance was very mature.

36 years ago I made my first senior debut and I certainly didn’t play as good as him! He was outstanding. He looks about 13 but he plays like a 30-year-old.

He’s so mature, he’s so calm with his defending, his decision making on the ball was very good, his choice of passes, his choice of crosses, none more so than for Danny’s goal and he’s fitted in brilliantly.”

Moreover, his loan spell at Rugby Park is set to expire at the end of the season. But the full-back’s focus is on keeping the Scottish side out of the danger zone.

Kilmarnock sits above Ross County, who sit at the foot of the table. Also, they remain threatened with relegation from the top flight in Scotland sitting in the relegation qualification position on goal difference with Dundee United.

Liverpool braced for second early summer transfer decision after Roberto Firmino

Liverpool transfer news as James Milner looks set to depart.

James Milner is set to leave Liverpool this summer.

The vice-skipper will depart Anfield after eight years of loyal service – having etched himself into club folklore.

Brighton are reportedly frontrunners to snap up Milner when his contract expires in June. Despite being the ripe age of 37, the midfielder is poised to continue his career in the Premier League.

Milner joined Liverpool from Manchester City in 2015 and has made 328 appearances, scoring 26 goals. He was at the nucleaus of the Reds re-establishing themselves among the European elite – helping the club win the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup.

However, Milner’s role as Liverpool in terms of his game-time as unsurprisingly dwindled during his twilight years. And with Jurgen Klopp planning to bolster his midfield options in the summer, Milner looks primed to move on. That’s despite Klopp suggesting he wanted to keep the former England international at the club earlier in the season.

Klopp will undoubtedly be asked about Milner during his press conference to preview Liverpool’s fixture against Brentford.

Roberto Firmino will also depart Anfield on a free transfer, with Klopp confirming the Brazil international’s decision in March. The Reds boss said: “Yes, he told me. Surprised? Yes, a little bit but I was not hit by surprise, actually it’s a normal thing to do.

“It could go two ways and it was one. And I respect that a lot. It’s completely normal in this kind of long relationship that we have and Bobby has with the club and with most of the players and stuff like this, and with the fans of course.”
