Liverpool has confirmed that winger Nabil El Zhar has made a season-long loan move to Greek club PAOK.
The Morocco international had previously maintained that he wanted to leave the club owing to a lack of first-team football.
He was signed by former Reds boss Rafael Benitez in 2006, but has since struggled to make it into the first-team.
The 24-year-old midfielder has also been out-of-favour under current boss Roy Hodgson, as he has not featured for the Merseyside club since the former Fulham boss took charge at Anfield.
PAOK claim that they also have the option to make the temporary move permanent, if the player is found to be worthy.
A statement on the Greek club's website reads: "FC PAOK announced the acquisition of Nabil El Zhar. The Moroccan international footballer was given on loan for one year from Liverpool, with PAOK FC reserving the right to extend its cooperation with the footballer in the summer of 2011 and for the next three years."
