Newcastle United left-back Jose Enrique could be on the verge of leaving St. James Park after launching an attack on the club's transfer policy.
The Spaniard has been linked with a move away from the north east for a number of months after refusing to sign a new contract with Newcastle and has indicated that he would like to move to a bigger club.
Both Arsenal and Liverpool have been touted as a possible destination for the 25-year-old, but it would seem that the Reds are the favourites as manager Kenny Dalglish looks to make a left-back the last signing of the summer.
Dalglish has already signed Jordan Henderson, Charlie Adam and Stewart Downing and is keen to bring Enrique to the club before the start of the season.
It appears Enrique is determined to force a move and after refusing to sign a contract extension has now blasted the club via social network site Twitter.
"The club is allowing all the major players of the team to go. Seriously, do you think it is the fault of the players? Andy (Carroll), nobby (Kevin Nolan) etc etc.
"This club will never again fight to be among the top 6 again with this policy."
Enrique later paid tribute to the Newcastle fans, adding: "I think you fans are the best and you deserve the best, not what they are doing with the club. Thanks to everyone for supporting me."
The attacking full-back joined Newcastle from Villarreal in 2007 and has gone on to impress during his spell on Tyneside. Should Liverpool attempt to land the defender then it is believed that they would need to bid in the region of £8million.
