Done deal! Lallana signs for Liverpool
Adam Lallana is targeting winning trophies with Liverpool after completing his £25million switch from Southampton.
Lallana's move was announced by Liverpool this morning and he has signed a long-term deal, believed to be four years.
The England World Cup winger is excited to move to Anfield and hopes to lift some silverware after Liverpool went so close to winning the Premier League last season.
Lallana told Liverpool's website: "I'm so excited for the next chapter of my career, coming to a special club like Liverpool. I'm quite humbled and I just can't wait to get started.
"Hopefully I can settle in quickly, and I will give it my best throughout the whole time I'm here. I hope I can add something to the team and hopefully we can win trophies while I'm here, because that's why I'm here - for success."

Is Lallana the right man for Liverpool?

 
Emre Can is also set to join Anfield in the next 24 hours after Liverpool activated his £10million buy-out clause with Bayer Leverkusen last month.
Lallana became the second high-profile player to leave St Mary's in a matter of days after left-back Luke Shaw signed for Manchester United in a £33m deal.
 
The move ends the midfielder's 14-year association with Southampton, who he joined from Bournemouth in September 2000 aged 12.
That deal included a 25 per cent sell-on clause, meaning the Cherries are set for a cash windfall of upwards of £6million from the deal.
