Liverpool coach clarifies comments

Liverpool throw-in coach Thomas Gronnemark has clarified his comments over a potential move to Tottenham Hotspur or Manchester United in the summer.

Speaking to Kicker, Gronnemark mentioned two possible destinations for next season.

"I don’t know, maybe I’ll be with Tottenham or Manchester United next year, as I’m not tied down as a freelancer,” he said, as reported by Sport Witness. "I’m just not allowed to be a direct competitor in any one season, that’s my rule. That’s why I have already turned down a top offer from England this season."

But now the coach has taken to social media to explain his comments further.

"Just to put everything straight! I'm a freelancer. I make new contracts every summer,” he wrote on Twitter. "The mentioned clubs are just random to explain my position as a freelancer.

"I'm very happy at Liverpool FC. Let's see what the future brings. Stay safe."

Surprise Alli admission

Dele Alli is more likely to leave Tottenham before Harry Kane.

That's the view of ex-Spurs striker Darren Bent.

Last weekend Kane shocked Lilywhites supporters with a transfer admission of his own, but surprisngly Bent doesn't think the England international will be among the first to leave the club.

"At the minute you don’t quite know what’s going to happen.," Bent told Football Insider.

“If you’d have asked me before who would have been the first to potentially go, I wouldn’t have said Harry Kane. I would have potentially seen a Dele Alli or someone like that going before him.

“It’s a really weird situation for them to be in.”
