Nothing but love and appreciation for the last 6 years. Thanks to the amazing people who made this place feel like home. To the supporters for accepting me and making me feel like one of their own. The staff - the world-class staff - without whom none of what we achieve as players would be possible. I can’t find the words to do justice for how much they mean to me... they are everything! To Brendan Rodgers, I will forever be grateful that he gave me the privilege to represent this club. To Jürgen Klopp, an even better man than he is a football manager. My teammates, they are my brothers. To share this journey with these boys has made me feel the luckiest fella in the game. To the Skip, Jordan Henderson... my best friend! No one deserves success more than this guy. It’s meant everything to be at his side while he’s achieved it. And to my own family, my wife and children, my mum, dad and sister... my own “team”. They made the good times better and the tough times bearable. I am so grateful to have been part of this special place. And now on to the next adventure. With love, Adam

He went on the thank Brendan Rodgers who brought him to the club back in 2014 as well as Jurgen Klopp, under whom Lallana won a Champions League and Premier League title. Liverpool skipper Jordan Henderson was also lavished with praise.


"To the Skip, Jordan Henderson...my best friend! No one deserves success more than this guy. It’s meant everything to be at his side while he’s achieved it," he added.


Lallana himself has been praised by several of his former teammates in the last few days with Klopp also paying tribute. The playmaker is likely to attract a lot of interest from Premier League clubs over the coming months.


Leicester, Southampton and West Ham have all been linked, although Merseyside journalist Paul Joyce reports that Brighton are currently leading the race.
