Dossena wants to leave Reds

Fri, 05 Jun 14:19:50 2009

Liverpool defender Andrea Dossena seems destined for a return to Italy after asking manager Rafael Benitez for a transfer.

The 27-year-old international left-back failed to establish himself after being signed as John Arne Riise's replacement in a £7million transfer from Udinese last summer.

"Before coming back to Italy I talked to Rafael Benitez and explained to him my doubts," he told Tuttosport.

"I told him I wanted to leave. He is an exceptional person and understood my problem.

"He told me that if they receive an offer that satisfies both the club and me, he will take it into consideration and try to facilitate my transfer.

"I would run to Juve. They showed interest in me last year, but then Liverpool stepped in and wrapped things up in less than an hour.

"Of course I would accept an offer. You're talking about one of the biggest clubs in Europe."

  2. Yeah he must go.
    I don't know why they even spent 7­ Million on him.

    These are dark times for Liverpool Football Club and­­­ their long-suffering, hopelessly devoted, hopelessly­­­ romantic band of supporters.

    Without a trophy to­­­ celebrate in three years, Liverpool fans are now­ faced­­ with the possibility their storied club could­­ disappear­ from the face of the earth altogether.

    The­­ news came­ just days after the most successful club in­­ top-flight­ history missed out on Gareth Barry - who­­ went to a club­ with more ambition in Manchester­­ City.

    It comes on the­ back of a Premier League­ season­ that saw Liverpool­ stumble like a startled­ goat from­ the summit and hand­ bitter rivals­ Manchester United­ yet another title. ­ THESE ARE GREAT­ DAYS.­ mmmmmm00000000!

    Should raise at least a couple of quid to help­ Liverpools massive debt problem. Best if he did'nt­ mention that he admires RAFA though as this would make­ him a non starter with anyone who knows football.
