Liverpool keeper predicts Torres stay at Anfield

Liverpool stopper Pepe Reina is confident club and country team-mate Fernando Torres will remain at Anfield next season. Torres has been linked with a move to either Chelsea or Barcelona, but Reina spoke to his compatriot this week and claims Torres is committed to turning the club's fortunes around.

"I am calm about Fernando," Reina told The People.

"I spoke to him about his future and he has told me that he intends to continue with us.

"Fernando suffered so many blows last season, but he is a professional and has always wanted to do well for us.

"That is what he remains - committed to this club."

Reds boss Rafael Benitez has also been strongly linked with a move away from the club this summer, with Inter Milan a possible destination, but Reina is equally convinced his manager will stay put.

"I am convinced that Rafa will still be with us and that is good for us because he wants revenge in the next campaign," he said.
