10 Liverpool Players Who Should Fear For Their Future
2. Suso
What has become of the career of Fernando Saenz, or Suso as he is more commonly referred to? A product of the Liverpool academy, the Spanish youngster first broke into the first-team during Brendan Rodgers first season at the helm, unleashed alongside Raheem Sterling as the former Swansea boss sought to blood fresh young talent into the starting line-up. In total, Suso made 20 appearances for the Reds in all competitions that seasons, before making 33 La Liga appearances for Almeria during a loan spell the following season. Now, the 20 year old is back at the club and seemingly cant get a look in. While Sterling - 384 days his junior - has scaled extraordinary heights for both club and country, Suso has just 22 minutes of Capital One Cup action for the season. With the Spaniard out for the next couple of months with a groin injury, it doesnt look like he will be able to show Rodgers his worth, with the clock ticking down to the expiration of his contract next summer. Potential suitors have already been linked with moves for the talented youngster, with AC Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani refusing to play down a potential transfer.
''Transfer market? I know where we can improve, but I dont tell that to you. Suso? He has an expiring contract and hell tell us if he wants to move or stay. - AC Milan chief executive, Adriano Galliani, October 2014.
