Alberto Moreno is reportedly poised to complete a move to Villarreal after his contract at Liverpool expired at the end of June.

Alberto Moreno will reportedly complete a free transfer to Villarreal after his contract with Liverpool expired at the end of June.

The Spaniard has struggled for playing time ever since Andrew Robertson cemented his status as Jurgen Klopp's first-choice left-back, managing just five appearances over the 2018-19 campaign.

Liverpool offered Moreno a new deal last year, but the defender opted against extending his contract amid concerns over a lack of playing time at Anfield.

According to ESPN, Moreno is expected to complete a medical at Villarreal in the coming hours ahead of penning a five-year deal with the La Liga side.

The 27-year-old reportedly received interest from Barcelona, Sevilla, Real Sociedad, Aston Villa, Zenit Saint Petersburg and Marseille ahead of ultimately deciding to continue his career at Villarreal.

Manager Klopp is expecting a quiet transfer window at Liverpool, with the German understood to be happy with the options at his disposal.
