Roma, Ajax target Benayoun told he must stay with Liverpool

Yossi Benayoun won't be allowed to leave Liverpool this month.

The News of the World says the Israel international wants away despite more first-term involvement recently.

Benayoun has been a target for Roma and Ajax.

But manager Rafa Benitez will block the midfielder’s efforts to leave as he can’t be sure any funds will be ploughed back into his squad.
