LIVERPOOL, UK – Liverpool defender Kostas Tsimikas is expected to leave the club this summer, with his recent exclusion from the squad for the match against Crystal Palace serving as a strong indicator of an imminent transfer.
The Greek international, who has spent four seasons at Anfield, is reportedly prepared to seek a new chapter in his career for more consistent playing time.
The 29-year-old left-back has been a popular figure among fans, earning the nickname ‘The Greek Scouser,’ but has often found himself behind Andy Robertson in the pecking order.
With a desire for a starting role, Tsimikas has made it clear that he is open to a move away.
It is understood that Nottingham Forest had already approached the club about a potential deal earlier in the transfer window.
Liverpool’s decision to leave Tsimikas out of the squad suggests that a deal is close to being finalized and that the club is protecting him from injury ahead of a transfer.
The potential departure would also free up a squad spot and provide a modest transfer fee, which could be used to fund other targets for the season.
The coming days will be crucial in determining his next destination. With the player’s willingness to move and clubs showing interest, it appears Tsimikas’s time at Liverpool is coming to an end.
An official announcement is expected before the transfer window closes, allowing both the player and the club to move forward.
