Veteran centre half Joel Matip is set to leave Liverpool once the season ends.

The defender has been absent due to a knee injury and will not play again this season.

Manager Jurgen Klopp, who is also departing in the offseason, admitted recently that Matip may be done at the club.

Italian outlet Corriere Della Sera claims that Matip may want to move to the Italian Serie A.

Lazio and Roma are both being mentioned as possible destinations for the veteran.

Klopp said recently: I'm pretty sure the club will show their class, just how they should do.

I'm pretty sure the club told Joel already that whatever happens so long as he is injured.

Now we have to make decisions together with Joel, how it looks after that. That's a normal thing to do. But yes he deserves all the support from us and he will get it."
