Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina is ‘crazy’ about playing for Atletico Madrid and could join the club in the near future – if his dad gets his own way. Miguel Reina, Pepe's father, spent seven years at the Madrid outfit between 1973 and 1980 and is sure that his son would jump at the opportunity to follow in his footsteps.
Speaking to Radio Marca, Reina senior claimed:
"My son has seen the red and white colours since he was small and he would love to play for Atletico. This weekend I am going to see him and I will talk to him about it.
"Pepe is crazy about playing for Atletico and I will try to convince him so that he does it as soon as possible."
With Liverpool flying high in the Premier League and without any suitable replacements it would appear that any move in the summer is unlikely. Leo Franco and Gregory Coupet are the two current keepers at the Vicente Calderon but both have been criticised for their error-strewn performances.
