One Liverpool defender has now confirmed he is departing the club after spending the last nine years on Merseyside. England youth defender Liam Balmer has confirmed that he will leave Liverpool at the end of the season, with a move to Leeds United lined up as his next destination.

Balmer, who can operate on either flank but is primarily seen as a right-back, announced his decision on Instagram, thanking staff, teammates and supporters, and describing his time at Liverpool as a chapter he will “leave behind” as he moves on to a new challenge: “After 9 years at this club, i will be leaving at the end of the season,” he wrote. “Thank you to everyone at the club who has worked with me to this point.

It’s time for me to move on to another chapter and leave this one behind.” “Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout my journey. YNWA” Leeds are expected to be the beneficiaries of that decision, with multiple reports indicating that Balmer has agreed to join the Yorkshire club at the end of the current campaign.
