Wataru Endo has reaffirmed his commitment to Liverpool despite finding himself on the fringes under Arne Slot this season.

The Japan international started just once in the Premier League as the Reds finished the season as champions, with Ryan Gravenberch emerging as the club’s first-choice holding midfielder.

The 32-year-old’s future has been the subject of scrutiny, while Liverpool previously rejected a bid from Marseille for his services last summer.

Meanwhile, the Reds are set to enjoy a busy transfer window.

But I just say, ‘as far as I’m concerned, I’m staying.’”

Makino quizzed Endo further on his future, asking if he was more interested in playing for Liverpool than moving on and whether he expects to remain at Anfield next season.

And while the midfielder was unable to offer long-term reassurances, he insisted he wants to stay put with the Reds and win further honours after lifting the Premier League trophy.

"Well, yes (I am more interested in playing for Liverpool than leaving).

Of course, I'm not satisfied, but I think it's one way of contributing to the title.

“Throughout this season, Liverpool fans have been aware of my situation of not getting many playing opportunities.

“But I really felt that they were really supporting me, and it was good to see the Liverpool fans happy."

This Liverpool ECHO special edition looks back at a remarkable season, but is packed full of images from both the trophy lift at Anfield and the parade through the streets of the city.

There are features, reaction from players and staff, analysis of how the title was won as well as player ratings and a focus on the boss himself - Arne!

Meanwhile, former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp recently praised Endo, when asked who his favourite Japanese players were by Red Bull Japan.

First choosing Shinji Kagawa and former Reds forward Takumi Minamino, the German also selected the current Liverpool midfielder when admitting he has three favourites.

“Just before I finished my career, I had the honour and opportunity to work with your captain, with Wataru Endo,” he explained.
