http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/premierleague/liverpool/7762740/Fernando-Torres-will-stay-with-Liverpool-next-season-says-strikers-agent.html
Following a disappointing season, which saw Liverpool finish seventh in the Premier Legaue and fail to secure a place in the Champions League next term, speculation has suggested many of Europe's most powerful clubs have been circling the prolific forward, with the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City and Real Madrid strongly linked with the striker.
However, despite Liverpool's under par finish and the lure of some of the world's biggest clubs, Torres' agent Jose Antonio Peton insists his client is going nowhere for now.
"For the moment I can assure fans that Fernando will continue at Liverpool next season." he said. "Everything is down to Liverpool's attitude but for the time being Fernando is happy at the club and has a good contract.
"Liverpool have not spoken to us about his future, so he is just concentrating on playing at the World Cup."
Peton's comments echo those of Torres' club and country team mate Pepe Reina, who last week insisted the Spain international will remain at Anfield and is committed to turning the club's fortunes around.
"I am calm about Fernando," Reina said. "I spoke to him about his future and he has told me that he intends to continue with us.
"Fernando suffered so many blows last season, but he is a professional and has always wanted to do well for us. That is what he remains - committed to this club."
Thank fuck.
