Real Betis fullback Riza Durmisi aware of Liverpool interest: I must talk to Agger!

Real Betis fullback Riza Durmisi is aware of interest from Liverpool.

The Dane admits he'd be willing to listen to any Reds offer.

"I know about Liverpool's interest. But I don't know how practical it is," he told BT.

"There will always be a lot of talk when you are playing in one of the world's best leagues. However, it should not of course change my focus on fighting for Betis.

"I am already in a big club and people who know what Betis stands for know it is a huge traditional club. So I am in no way desperate to get away.

"If other clubs are ready to pay, and if Betis will sell me, I will of course listen to the offer. This applies to Liverpool. Anything else would be idiocy."

Durmisi was also asked if he had spoken to Daniel Agger, his former teammate at Brondby, about the idea of a move to Merseyside.

"When we were in Brondby, we talked about how it was to be in Liverpool," he said. "But it's not something we've talked about this time.

"Agger thinks that Liverpool is the world's biggest club, and that's why he was there for over eight years. If Liverpool's interest is concrete, I shall talk to Agger first."
