Andy Hunter guardian.co.uk said:Liverpool have accepted a £3m offer from Panathinaikos for the Argentinian winger Sebastián Leto as Rafael Benítez trims the excess from his squad to increase his transfer budget.
Leto has made only four starts for Liverpool since arriving for £1.85m from Lanús two years ago and spent last season on loan at Olympiakos, where the 22-year-old fell out with the coach Erneste Valverde. Despite his initial problems Leto hopes to remain in Greece but due to the absence of a permanent offer from Olympiakos, is close to joining their fierce rivals. With Alvaro Arbeloa also close to a £5m move to Real Madrid, Benítez's prospects of following the £17m purchase of Glen Johnson with another big-money signing have increased. Valencia's David Silva remains a leading target.
"There are negotiations between Panathinaikos and Liverpool and as far as I know the two sides are very close to a deal," said Leto. "I think that the possibilities of playing at Panathinaikos next season are more than 90 per cent. I have been waiting for something from Olympiakos all these weeks but they haven't made a move for me so far. It's not a matter of money. I wanted to stay at Olympiakos but since they don't want to sign me I have to think about my future.
