Liverpool manager Roy Hudgson has brushed aside all speculation surrounding Liverpool striker Fernando Torres as he revealed that Torres is looking forward to training on Monday.

The World Cup winner has been linked with a move to Premier League sides Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United and La Liga champions Barcelona with reports claiming Liverpool would only accept a record offer of £70 million for the Spaniard.

But speaking to the press about the new signings and training within the Liverpool camp, Hudgson claimed the Liverpool ace is looking forward to the new season.

“As far as I know he is looking forward to coming back on Monday. He’s enjoying the holiday which is a well deserved break, I don’t think he’s had one for three years.”

Hodgson said.

He’s spending a lot of time with his family, as far as I know he is keeping a very low profile, not speaking to anybody but he has told us that he is looking forward to Monday.

“He is looking forward to getting back to work, looking forward to playing for Liverpool next season. That’s what I know and all other reports I would suggest are erroneous.”
