Torres plans to stay at Liverpool

Spain striker Fernando Torres says he plans to stay at Liverpool.

Torres and midfielder Steven Gerrard had both expressed concerns that Liverpool needs to buy new players, particularly after failing to qualify for this season’s Champions League.

But Torres has now followed his captain in committing himself to the club following Roy Hodgson’s arrival as manager on July 1.

Torres has three years left on his contract and says “my commitment and loyalty to the club and to the fans is the same as it was on my first day when I signed.”
