Spain striker Fernando Torres will be staying with Liverpool next season, according to his agent Jose Antonio Peton.
Torres, currently racing to be fit for the European champions’ World Cup opener against Switzerland on June 16, has been linked with a move to either Chelsea, Manchester City or Real Madrid this summer.
But despite the Reds’ disappointing Premier League campaign that saw them finish seventh, Torres will remain at Anfield.
“For the moment I can assure fans that Fernando will continue at Liverpool next season,” Peton told Punto Radio.
“Everything is down to Liverpool’s attitude but for the time being Fernando is happy at the club and has a good contract.
“Liverpool have not spoken to us about the future, so he is just concentrating on playing at the World Cup.”
Torres can be backed at 14/1 with totesport, StanJames and bodog to win the Golden Boot in South Africa.
Spain go into the World Cup as favourites to win the 2010 World Cup on the back of their stunning Euro 2008 success.
But if you want to back another team StanJames has extended an incredible concession to anyone not betting on Spain this Summer.
If you bet on anyone other than Spain winning the World Cup and Spain wins the tournament, the bookmaker will give you your money back.
So if you were to back England and Spain won you'd get your money back.*
