Ex-Liverpool attacker Ryan Babel eager to play on

Former Liverpool attacker Ryan Babel is eager to play on.

The 37 year-old has been a free agent since September when he was released by Eyüpspor.

“Of course I don't have a team at the moment and that's why I enjoy my free time, but I still really enjoy football. So I'm still trying to figure it out a bit," Babel said, having played in the Legends match between Liverpool and Ajax last weekend.

“I really want to still play football, but that's mainly because I enjoy it. For that you have to play in a team that plays nice football, so not for every team."

Asked about an Eredivisie return, he said: “If it was that easy, I would have done it! It depends. If there is a team that I feel good about and where I can have fun, then I can certainly think about that."
