I'm going to see what happens in January. I think at this moment in time it's unlikely that I'll be playing a lot of games for the Reds, so if an opportunity arises where I get the chance to do that somewhere else and it suits everyone then it's something I'd be interested in.
The player has made a total of 24 appearances for the team.
I've had experience in both the English and European leagues. I've gone through those situations where you're new.
If I go somewhere else, I don't need to go through that process. I'll be ready to play immediately.
He thinks training alone has given him the perfect experience for a life away from the club, and that he has learned a lot from training with the likes of van Dijk.
