Liverpool striker Fernando Torres has again declared he could never play for Real Madrid.

The former Atletico captain said: "Real Madrid are not the biggest team in the game. They are a big club but so are Barcelona, AC Milan, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan.

"It is not a team that interests me and, because of the time I spent at Atletico Madrid, the opposite could be said. I just cannot see myself playing for Real Madrid.

"In a few years' time I would like to play in Serie A. I would then have played in the three biggest leagues in European football: Spain, England and Italy."
