Ryan Babel's proposed move to Birmingham doesn't look like it'll happen but there are still question marks about his Liverpool future. Rafa says that the Dutchman rejected a move to St Andrews however the Spaniard doesn't want him to move anyway, as he explained:
'I have not said that Ryan has to leave the club. We received an offer for the player and he said that he did not want to leave the club.
'Therefore we rejected the offer. He is a good player and he works hard, I want him in the squad.'
Andrea Dossena, who has now left the Reds, and Andriy Voronin, who is expected to move to Russia, are different matters though and the Reds Boss is happy for them to leave, as he also explained:
'The Voronin deal is nearing completion but both he and Dossena are different to Babel. They were not playing many matches and wanted to play regularly elsewhere.'
Rafa has admitted that a few issues need to be finalised with Maxi Rodriguez but the Argentina international is getting close to a move to Anfield from Atletico Madrid.
