Liverpool Turn Back On 'Perfect' Real Madrid Star

Liverpool won’t be making a move for Fernando Gago, even though the Real Madrid star issued a ‘come get me’ plea to the Merseyside club, the Liverpool Daily Post understands.

Gago’s representative Marcelo Lobilla said yesterday that Liverpool would be the perfect destination for the star, with multiple clubs including Aston Villa and Tottenham also linked to a possible move for the midfielder.

“Gago needs to play and Liverpool would be a perfect club for him,” Lobilla said.

“Fernando wants to get back on the pitch and return to the top level and at the moment that is not possible in Madrid.”

While Gago has struggled for game time at Real Madrid, the 25-year-old has made 100 appearances for the Spanish giants over four years, making him an attractive signing in the Barclays Premier League.

Liverpool, however, look to have bowed out of the race for the star, with Kenny Dalglish concentrating on signing younger players with experience in English football.
