Liverpool - Defender set for exit? EXCLUSIVE
26 Oct 2005 12:30
Liverpool defender Josemi could be set for a return back to La Liga, according to clubcall.com Spanish correspondent Ivan Modia.
The defender has not enjoyed the best of times at Anfield and Modia believes a return to his homeland could be on the cards.
"Despite being a hard working player, he could go in January," revealed Modia.
"Although Liverpool would want the maximum they could get for the player, I think he will return back to Spain."
Following Liverpool's exit in the Carling Cup and dismal form in the Premiership, new faces are expected in the New Year with several Liverpool players linked away with Josemi's name being mentioned.
"Josemi came from Malaga and he has been the biggest failure of Benitez's transfers. Liverpool would want the maximum they can get for the player which would be around £1 million."
The source of the above quote is very dubious as it is from 'Cubcall.com' and anything sites and phonelines like this say is to be taken with a pinch of salt but in this case it will hopefully prove to be true. If true it also proves that Rafa isn't afriad to admit that a player he has bought isn't upto the job and is prepared to move him on.
(take note monsieur Houllier
)It is also to be noted that he has made his mind up about him pretty quickly when you consider that he missed a large portion of last season through injury.
If it does come to fruition and it is a BIG IF it will have Morientes , Keewell and some of the other under performers shaking like sh!itting dogs, hopefully.
