Southampton star Dejan Lovren shoots down Liverpool rumours
DEJAN LOVREN has dismissed speculation linking him with a move to Liverpool, claiming he is happy at Southampton.
The 24-year-old enjoyed a fine debut season in the Premier League following his move from Lyon last summer.
Rumours have gathered pace in recent weeks that Lovren could be heading to Anfield in the summer, but the Croatia international insists he intends to honour his contract.
"I also heard something about that," he told Croatian paper Sportske Novosti.
"I follow the media and I saw that Liverpool is allegedly interested in me. But that is all that I know so far.
I feel great at Southampton and my contract is valid for the next three years
"I feel great at Southampton and my contract is valid for the next three years.
"So the only thing I can say right now is that the club is the one who decides."
Lovren clocked up 31 appearances in the Premier League for Saints last term.
