Lucas unsure of Liverpool stay today

Lucas Leiva admits he has no idea if he will finish the day still a Liverpool player.

After Sunday's victory over West Bromwich Albion, Roy Hodgson said he could not rule out the Brazil international's sale if a big bid came in but added that it would not be ideal to lose a player so late in the transfer window.

"What is the situation? I don't know. I'm still playing," said the club's young player of the year last season, who has been linked with Barclays Premier League rivals Stoke.

"At the moment, I haven't had any offers. I don't know if the club wants to sell me. I just have to wait.

"I'm going away with the national team (on Thursday) and I can't say any more than that.

"We don't have any games so we will be training for a week in Barcelona.

"If the club want to sell me, what can I do? I just have to wait and see what will happen.

"I need to be playing and I want to be playing but I believe that I am doing well.

"The manager will choose who plays. I have a contract here and if I don't get anything good for me or for the club, then I will stay."
