Talks On Hold For Unsettled Agger


Daniel Agger insists all talk about his Liverpool future should be banned until the end of the season.

Boss Rafa Benitez is keen for the Dane to pen a new Anfield contract, while AC Milan still hope to lure the central defender to Italy.

Agger has been unsettled on Merseyside since returning from injury but won’t be allowed to leave this month. The 24-year-old will instead keep his options open until the summer when he could buy out the final 18 months of his contract.

Kop team-mate Yossi Benayoun has also been warned to forget about a January move.

The Israel international wants away despite more first-term involvement recently.

Benayoun has been a target for Roma and Ajax.

But Benitez will block the midfielder’s efforts to leave as he can’t be sure any funds will be ploughed back into his squad.
