With all the football and soccer(to keep the readers geographically satisfied) postponed to indefinite time, the media is all fixed up on how teams and players are responding to the stream of wage cut issues – be it with Barcelona stir-up or Tottenham’s director Daniel Levy being burst upon – lets take a look at some players whose contracts are ending this season.

The first player in this new series is Liverpool’s Adam Lallana. Part of the one of the best team the Premier League has ever seen, Lallana maybe only acknowledged for his equaliser against Manchester United late in 2019, October. After a series of injury ridden series, 19-20 seemed to have provided more game time to Lallana. With 15 appearances, Lallana is involved in 2 goal contribution, consisting 1 assist.

So, how did Adam Lallana actually end up here. It all started from the Southampton youth academy where he was scouted from the Bournemouth Centre Of Excellence. Showing great talent through the youth team, he broke through the first team in 2006, making his debut in a league cup match against Yeovil Town. After his loan spell at Bournemouth, Lallana became a regular starter on his arrival.

Going down to League One and then coming up took a lot and almost featuring in every game, Lallana was great on his physical level. Under Nigel Adkins the team got two successive promotion to finally arrive in the Premier League. Mauricio Pochettino’s appointment in January 2013, brought the best in all of the team. Southampton finished 8^th in the Premier League the later season. Ricky Lambert and Adam Lallana, the leading pioneers of this newly found success. Both of them were selected for the England national squad for the Euros 2014.

Here comes the joint transfer from the Premier League runner-up Liverpool.  Brought in along with Ricky Lambert for a 31 Mil Euros, the 2014-15 season didn’t fare as good as was expected after the departure of goal machine Luis Suarez to Barcelona. Lallana was a frequent starter for Brendan Rodger’s team until he was sacked to be replaced by Jurgen Klopp. Injuries started to show as Lallana moved away from the team sheet. A lot of faces from the 17-18, Champions League finalist were shipped off – with big departures like Coutinho, Emre Can in mid-season. Jurgen Klopp brought a bunch of new faces in the midfield for the team. Opportunities seemed even more depleted for Lallana, as injury crisis still remained an issue for his selection.

This bring us to the nearing end of the 6-year life at Liverpool for Adam Lallana. With a Champions League medal to his name, Lallana has an England’s Player of the Year award (2016). Aged 31, Lallana is nearing the end of the peak period of a midfielder and also for his legs too. Not short of talent, a lot of news surrounded to a return back to boyhood club Southampton – journalist and pundits ruled it out as new pastures in Leicester seems to be stirring around at the moment.

Amassed a total of 178 appearance with 22 goals and assists each, Lallana will surely not forget his time at Liverpool by the end of the season, having surely won the Premier League with a humongous 25 Points lead.
