"It would be an honour for me to wear their red shirt and I
would regard it as a dream to play alongside Michael Owen up
front. If I could choose my next team and, if they want me,
it will be Liverpool.

"Lately, I have had an itchy hand — mainly after I have seen
some giant games involving Liverpool, Manchester United,
Chelsea and Arsenal. When my hands itch, it means I am
curious, anxious to know more.

"I have decided that I want one or two seasons in England
before the end of my career and I want it to be at
Liverpool.

"Liverpool seem to be the most technical side in the Premier
League and I would have no trouble finding myself alongside
a talent like Owen up front or just behind.

"They would stand well alongside the top clubs I have played
with so far. I know they are not as massive a club as
Manchester United, but I do know that they are a well-
respected club in English football.”
