Liverpool defender Andre Wisdom is joining Red Bull Salzburg on a season-long loan.

The 23-year-old had also been the subject of interest from Celtic but the Austrian Bundesliga champions have won the battle for his signature.

It’s the fourth successive season that the Academy graduate has been loaned out by the Reds.

Wisdom, who can play full-back or centre-back, hadn’t been able to force his way into Jurgen Klopp’s plans for this season.

Salzburg will provide him with Europa League football after they were drawn in the same group as Schalke, Salzburg, Krasnodar and Nice.

The former England Under-21s captain still has three years to run on the new long-term contract he penned at Anfield last summer.

Handed a debut by Brendan Rodgers against Young Boys in the Europa League in September 2012, Wisdom went on to make 19 appearances in the 2012/13 campaign. He also played in three games the following season before joining Derby County on loan.

Wisdom spent the 2014/15 season at West Brom and then last season he played for Norwich City before returning to Liverpool for pre-season this summer.
