AC
Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has revealed that on-loan striker Fernando
Torres should not leave in January.
Reports have strongly linked the Spaniard back to Premier League but the Milan representative has clearly said that he should not leave.
Adriano
Galliani said: “Fernando Torres shouldn’t leave in January, but the market is
unpredictable.”
The
former Liverpool striker was not even in the squad for Milan’s clash with
Napoli yesterday. However, it was the flu due to which Milan had to drop him
out. But the rumours started claiming that Torres missed the match indicates another
hint for his return.
Torres
signed a two-year loan deal with the Serie A side in the summer. And reports are already
sending him back to Chelsea in January. While Liverpool are also reportedly interested in their former star striker.
Galliani
told Sky Sport Italia: “Will he leave in
January? I don’t think so, but the market is unpredictable,”
Galliani
believes that Torres needs time to settle in the Italian league. And he hopes
that Torres has still enough qualities to be the one that he used to be.
While
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has already denied to take Torres back as he said
that there is no room for the Spaniard. Diego Costa, Didier Drogba and Loic Remy are
all enough for the striker’s role.
The
Portuguese told earlier that he is on-two year loan deal at Milan. He is our
player but there is no place for him in any competition.
