Joe Gomez has opened up about his uncertain future at Liverpool, admitting that "anything can happen" as the summer transfer window approaches. The 28-year-old defender, who will mark 11 years at Anfield later this season, is entering the final year of his contract—and his role at the club has never felt more in flux.
Gomez, a versatile presence in Liverpool's backline, has made just six Premier League starts this season. That limited game time, combined with a contract winding down, has naturally sparked speculation. Last summer, he was the subject of talks between Liverpool and AC Milan, while Newcastle United also showed interest in 2024. On transfer deadline day, a move nearly materialized before a deal for Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi fell through at the last minute, keeping Gomez on Merseyside.
Now, with the Reds set to formalize the signing of French defender Jeremy Jacquet—an agreement reached back in February—and emotional exits looming for stars like Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson, Gomez admits he has little clarity on what's next. "I think anything can happen," he said. "I don't know is the honest answer. I've only got a year left on my contract, so I don't know. Whatever's meant to be will be, but I'm 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 we'll see."
Gomez's comments came after a second-half substitute appearance in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea—a result that drew scattered jeers from the Anfield crowd. Liverpool had taken the lead through Ryan Gravenberch's opener, but Enzo Fernandez's free-kick pulled the visitors level, earning Chelsea their first Premier League point in seven games. For Gomez, the match felt like a snapshot of a season full of uncertainty: flashes of promise, moments of frustration, and a nagging sense that change is coming.
As the summer window looms, all eyes will be on Anfield—and on a defender who has given a decade of service, but may soon be writing his next chapter elsewhere.
