Johnson relaxed over Liverpool future

Liverpool right-back Glen Johnson has insisted that he is not concerned about his future at the club.

The English defender will become a free agent next summer as his current deal at Anfield looks set to come to an end after the summer arrivals of Spanish duo Alberto Moreno and Javier Manquillo.

Johnson who was taken off during Liverpool’s 3-1 defeat to Manchester City on Monday evening, has revealed that he is not concerned about his future, despite no talks being made between him and the club.

“I’m very relaxed about my contract,” Johnson told the Liverpool Echo. “There are no talks going on with the club at the moment. There were minor talks towards the end of last season but nothing else.

“I’ve loved playing my football here from day one. I’m more than happy here. But obviously I can only talk to the club about it when they want to speak to me.”

Johnson is free to sign a contract with any club from January but he is refusing to be drawn on a future away from Merseyside.

“In January I could [talk to other clubs], but I’ll worry about that when January comes, at the minute I’m playing for Liverpool and I’m happy here. I’m more than willing to stay.

“I’ll just concentrate on things here week by week. The manager has picked me so far. That shows he wants me here.”
