Agent fuels defender quit talk

Liverpool, 13:42, June 28, 2009 ,

Liverpool defender and Real Madrid target Alvaro Arbeloa looks set to leave Anfield this summer, according to his agent.

The 26-year-old's place in the side is under threat from big-money arrival Glen Johnson and with just 12 months to run on his contract, it seems the former Deportivo La Coruna star will be on the way.
"Alvaro has a year left on his current deal and Rafa Benitez knows that it's best to let him go now," Garcia Quilon told the Sunday Mirror.
"The career of a football player has many stages and he is qualified to play anywhere."
The Reds are in talks with Arbeloa over a new deal but it appears he sees his future elsewhere.
