Liverpool's Klavan on the verge of Cagliari move

The 32-year-old is in the final year of his contract at Anfield and finds himself some way down the defensive pecking order, with Virgil van Dijk, Dejan Lovren, Joel Matip and Joe Gomez all very much ahead of him in Jurgen Klopp's thinking.

Klavan has made 39 appearances for the 'Reds' since joining the club from Bundesliga outfit Augsburg in 2016, but it now seems he will not get the chance to add to that total.

The experienced defender became the first Estonian to score in the Premier League as he scored the winner in a 2-1 victory over Burnley on New Year's Day.

Cagliari are expected to pay a fee in the region of £2m for Kalvan's services as they look to tie up a deal before Friday night's transfer deadline in Italy.
