Mignolet, 31, hasn’t played a single minute of Premier League football this season - sitting firmly behind Alisson in the pecking order.
“This season, it was something quite easy to accept, but, obviously, I’d like to play. That’s why I keep working every day and try to keep on going on this path,” Mignolet told TV Limburg.
“I don’t know if an exit is possible this summer, I still have two years left on my contract. For now, I’m focused on Liverpool and Belgium games. We’ll see later.”

Sounds like he's happy to turn up and collect his pay packet for the next 2 years, with minimal game time.

And then walk out the door on a free passing go and collecting a bumper sign on fee elsewhere.
We really need to get rid of players like this by dropping the valuations we have on them. Either we take a reduced fee and save the wages or get nothing in the end except a bigger loss because he does seem happy to see it out.

He is perfectly entitled to sit here and collect on the contract that we gave him but this is the same fella who has been dropped numerous times over his career here. I don't think Klopp trusts him at all because if he did I doubt we would have spent what we did on a replacement. We can do better imo as he has had far too many chances

Hmmm,
OK, Name a keeper who is
1, Definitively proven to be substantially better than Mignolet , and
2, Is prepared to sit on the bench indefinitely, (because if he's not as good as Alison that's where he'll remain).
Honestly think you've got a skewed view on this one mate, it's almost as if you want us to sign a keeper that can easily replace Alison but at the same time is happy to warm the bench.
We've got far bigger issues to address .
