Fernando Torres tells Liverpool to talk to Chelsea

Fernando Torres has told Liverpool to sit down and negotiate with Chelsea,
having reached the point at which he believes that a departure from Anfield
is now the right move for his career. With just four days of the winter
transfer window remaining the striker is aware that time is running out but
he does not want to miss out on the opportunity to join Chelsea for a second
time. He has urged the Fenway Sports Group to broker an agreement that is
good for both player and club. There is not, however, a clause that will
allow Torres to unilaterally break his contract.
Chelsea made a bid for Torres during the summer but the striker was told that
he would not be able to depart with the club undergoing a sales process. The
price quoted for his transfer was so high as to be simply a symbolic "not for
sale" sign. At the time, Torres sought assurances that he would be able to
depart in the future, should an acceptable bid be made and he consider a move
necessary. Those discussions were held with the then managing director
Christian Purslow who has now left the club – and no written legal clause
was signed.
Torres also wanted assurances over the future of the club when Liverpool were
bought out by the new owners. Torres's camp believes that promises have been
broken. Liverpool are not the club that Torres joined and the striker is
pessimistic over the future and his patience has worn thin with the absence
of investment or activity since the takeover. Roy Hodgson's departure and the
appointment of Kenny Dalglish was a step in the right direction but is not
enough. Liverpool have only made one significant move in the transfer window,
for the Uruguay striker Luis Suárez.
It is now a case of Liverpool convincing Torres not to go. The striker can
see little real argument to continue at Anfield. Although there is no plan to
try to force a move through and despite the recognition that Liverpool could
block the move, Torres believes that an immediate departure is the best
solution. Liverpool's decision to announce the bid could be interpreted as an
attempt to flush Torres out and force him to push for an exit.
If he were to join Chelsea, Torres would be eligible to play in the Champions
League. He is hopeful of Liverpool recognising that his departure could be
good for all concerned. Liverpool signed Torres for £23m; they could make
over £20m in profit if they were to sell now. Indeed, it is the money from a
Torres deal that could unlock the funds necessary to make an improved bid to
clinch Suárez.
Liverpool have reopened talks with Ajax over Suárez this afternoon and, it
is believed, made a breakthrough over a transfer fee for the Uruguay
international.
The Dutch club rejected a £12.8m offer from Liverpool for their captain
earlier this week and had insisted on €30m (£25.8m) for the deal to happen.
Suárez has told the coach, Frank De Boer, that he wishes to leave Amsterdam
for Merseyside and, mindful that his value will drop if they fail to qualify
for next season's Champions League, Ajax are now understood to be open to a
compromise fee with Liverpool.
Meanwhile, Chelsea's manager, Carlo Ancelotti, refused to be drawn on his
club's bid for Fernando Torres – but said he was happy that "the club are
trying to do everything they can to improve the squad". But Ancelotti said:
"I don't want to speak about this, you will have to ask the club. He is not
my player and I have to have respect for Liverpool. I don't like to speak
about this."
Ancelotti had previously intimated that the club's protracted pursuit of
Benfica defender David Luiz would be their only major move of the January
transfer window. But, asked if the Torres bid had therefore caught him by
surprise, he said: "I'm not surprised, because I know very well what the club
is doing now. I am happy because the club is doing a fantastic job in this
transfer market. The club is trying to do everything to improve the squad."
