Maxi Rodriguez (Espanyol)

Mundo Deportivo is reporting that Espanyol are talking to Maxi's agent about going back to Espanyol but his wages will be the stumbling block.

More rubbish paper talk I assume? 

have we got a decent source for this? I doubt he'd leave after 6 months...

Jesus christ, papers getting desperate in Spain?

Ha!

Join a club for 6 months

Leave after 6 months for Espanyol


Seems credible

Yeah but with talks of Nando and Masch leaving, probably the 3 main reasons he joined the club might very well leave/ have already left :/

Don't think he will go though.

F**k me purslow will sell anyone barring Gerrard and Torres, put in a half arsed bid and you'll probably buy anyone at our club.

Jesus it really must be really slow in the transfer market

How the feck do people actually think these stories up 

Liverpool look to offload midfield misfit Maxi Rodriguez to Espanyol but Spanish side's loan demands could prove hitch

Maxi Rodriguez has been told he can leave Liverpool and is expected to complete a move to Spanish side Espanyol, according to reports in the Catalan press.
New boss Roy Hodgson has deemed the Argentina midfielder surplus to requirements as he rebuilds the Reds' squad but a transfer fee could yet prove a stumbling block in any switch back to his former club, reports El Mundo Deportivo.

Espanyol are seeking a loan deal for Maxi with a view to a permanent move at the end of the season, should the player impress. Liverpool are thought to want a permanent transfer.

However, a deal could go through within a matter of days with the two clubs said to be in advanced talks.
 
 Maxi has made just 17 appearances for Liverpool after signing a three-and-a-half-year deal in last season's January transfer window.

He spent three years playing for Espanyol between 2002-2005 before a move to the Vicente Calderon, where he fell out of favour last term before the £1.5million move to Anfield.

Daily Fail

It would be F***ing silly to sell this guy

Since when has he been a misfit? Load of bull

That was my thinking, I got Maxi on the back of my shirt on the basis he signed a 3.5 year deal, would be stupid to sell him!

Biggest misfit of last season?

You kidding me, he was quality

We may as well put tw*t on our foreheads if we sell him

I'm sure that the club will bear that in mind... ;-)

For sure!

If no firm bids arise, I expect Purslow may start selling raffle tickets instead, luck of the draw then.

Makes absolutely no sense to sell him!  Even if we were to get around 5-7 million for him (which is way over the fee being projected), who could we buy to replace him for similar value?  The answer is no one!  The market offers very little true value for money these days, and we would be best suited to keep a player with so much quality and experience.  Plus he will be eligible for the Europa League this time around.

I think every single player must be getting sold now according to the papers. I doubt Woy will let Maxi go, he's a good player to have around.

Pure ridiculous.

I think I must have missed the point at which he was regarded a 'misfit' at the club.

Don't worry we wont need a team next season, its a new sport you just play our new signing the left back on 110,000 a day.

"made just 17 appearances since joining in January."

F**k me. He couldn't possibly have made much more than that. Thinking about it. Except for Reina, Gerrard and Carragher, prolly not many players have got more than 17 since January. Absolute bollocks story.
