Danny Ward: I want to leave Liverpool to join Huddersfield on loan… again

The Wales international, who has made just two senior appearances for Liverpool since 2012, played in 45 of Huddersfield’s 50 matches last season.

The 23-year-old’s stock is high after helping them win the Championship playoff final to secure a Premier League spot.

At Liverpool, his path to the first team is blocked by Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius.

And he’s revealed he’d rather play every week in the Premier League than be a substitute at the Merseyside club.

Ward said: “Liverpool have my contract and their needs come first, especially with the Champions League.

“On a selfish point, I would like to stay at Huddersfield. I am only young for a goalkeeper and to have a chance of playing week-in, week-out in the Premier League would be good experience for someone of my age.

“It would be more beneficial than being on the bench but, as I say, Liverpool have my contract.”

Ward made two saves during the penalty shoot-out in the play-off semi-final as Huddersfield progressed to the final.
