Kuyt set for summer exit

Dutch international Dirk Kuyt is set to leave Liverpool at the end of the season, Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reports.

The 31-year-old has lost his starting berth with the arrival of coach Kenny Dalglish and he is now pondering his options.

The Reds are planning a major summer overhaul after yet another disappointing season and they are prepared to cash in on the veteran forward.

According to De Telegraaf, Kuyt has a special clause in his contract that will allow him to leave at the end of the season if a club pay €1.1 million.

Fiorentina and Galtasaray have both shown interest in signing the Dutch international, whereas his former club Feyenoord are also keen.

However, Kuyt’s high salary would prove to be a major obstacle to his return to De Kuip.

The Dutch forward has started 19 Premier League games this season, while making 9 substitute appearances, scoring a total of 2 goals in the process.
