When quizzed about his future, Gomez claimed that heâs unsure what lays in store for him over the summer and seems prepared to let events take their course.
The Redsâ number 2 said (via Liverpool Echo): âI think anything can happen. I donât know is the honest answer. Iâve only got a year left on my contract, so I donât know.
âWhateverâs meant to be will be, but Iâm so grateful to have had this time here at this club. I always will be grateful to have had 11 years at a place like this. All I can do is be thankful and weâll see.â

Gomez mightnât be the first name on the teamsheet every week, but his importance to the Liverpool squad shouldnât be taken for granted.
The Reds are facing into a period in which theyâre set to lose several long-serving leaders within the dressing room â Mo Salah and Andy Robertson are leaving at the end of this month, Alisson Becker has been linked with a summer exit, and Virgil van Dijk has only a year remaining on his contract.
The 28-year-old is the only other link to the Premier League-winning side of 2019/20 (barring a few fleeting runouts for Curtis Jones), and notwithstanding the experience heâs accrued from 272 games for LFC, his comments come at a time when Ibrahima Konateâs future remains very much up in the air.
What we can say for certain is that Gomez has served Liverpool tremendously over the past 11 years and absolutely deserves the right to leave on his own terms. If he were to seek a fresh challenge this summer, nobody would begrudge it to him.
His remarks about being grateful for his time at Anfield carry a hint of an impending goodbye, and his contract situation could sway FSG into accepting offers for him whilst they can still bank a fee, but weâd be thrilled if he does decide to give us at least one more season.
