Wataru Endo faces potential January exit from Liverpool
Liverpool midfielder Wataru Endo faces a potential departure from the club in the January transfer window due to a lack of playing time. Reports indicate that the Japanese midfielder has been excluded from UEFA Champions League squad registrations and has not seen action in recent Premier League or Carabao Cup fixtures.
Local media outlets, including Anfield Index, suggest that a January move would be beneficial for both the player and the club. While Endo's age may limit a significant transfer fee, his departure would provide Liverpool with greater squad flexibility and free up registration slots. For Endo, moving in January would offer an opportunity to secure regular playing time rather than remaining on the sidelines for the remainder of the season. Speculation regarding his next destination includes a potential return to the J League.
