Albert Riera Is Not Leaving Liverpool For Olympiacos


Liverpool winger Albert Riera is not about to depart Anfield and join Olympiacos, according to his agent Angel Castell.

The Greek outfit were reported on Wednesday to be lining up a bid for the wide player after their £5 million offer for Yossi Benayoun was apparently rejected by the Reds.

But Castell insists that his client remains focused on recovering full match fitness after problems with hamstring injuries this season, and is keen to reclaim a place in Rafa Benitez's starting line-up.

"I have not heard from Olympiacos at all," the agent told Sky Sports.

"Albert has this year and two more years to go on his contract and he wants to stay at Liverpool.

"Albert is just thinking about recovering from injury and getting back into the team."
