Brad Jones is expected to leave Liverpool when his contract expires this summer.

Boss Brendan Rodgers revealed last week that the Reds had held discussions with the Australian goalkeeper over an extension.

However, the ECHO understands that the 33-year-old shot-stopper remains highly likely to move on at the end of the season.

A keeper is on Rodgers’ summer wish list as Liverpool look to secure greater competition for No.1 Simon Mignolet, who has transformed his Anfield career over the past four months.

Fiorentina’s Norberto Neto and Club Brugge’s Matthew Ryan are among those who have been heavily scouted and are under consideration.

Brazilian Neto, 25, is available on a free transfer when his contract expires this summer, while 23-year-old Australia international Ryan would command a fee.

Jones has made 25 appearances since his £2.3million move from Middlesbrough five years ago – serving as the deputy to first Pepe Reina and then Mignolet.

He was handed a rare chance back in December after Mignolet’s slump in form but a thigh injury suffered at Burnley on Boxing Day wrecked his hopes of a sustained run in the side and he hasn’t featured since.
